Just built my new computer yesterday, and yes I know, I need to update my sig. Too lazy at the moment.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600

Asus P5B Deluxe WiFi edition

Corsair Twin XMS2 2x1GB DDR2-800 5-5-5-12

eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS 640MB

Creative X-Fi Xtrememusic

2x320GB Seagate 7200.10 SATA II

Pioneer DVR-110D DVD-RW

Antec Super Lanboy Case

OCZ GameXStream 700W

This is my very first self-built computer. I hope my cable management is acceptable.

The double post is more of a bios "ASUS" option they built in, thing is its hard on your HD's when it does that. Lot of people blew a cork over it so they changed it with newer bios.

If you ever flash your bios, use the utility built in the bios under Tools.

With Lanboys I usually pull all the messy cables out on the motherboard side of the case and then just stuff them in that little space left by the case screw compartment. Also putting the hard drives in the right way will hide those cables a lot better.

awesome same case as mine:D its the best case ever :D

^isn't what he did with the hds the right way? i have my hds that way also.

No, flip them around so the cables are not facing the viewable side. Thats what I mentioned the first time but he said he liked being able to see them.

MRK had his backwards as well, I guess it's a personal preference.

I would rather have them hidden.

    • "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.
    • This Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 32GB RAM with RGB is a great deal for limited time by Sayan Sen Memory prices have been through the roof for a while, though it seems like things might finally be getting better. If you are in the market for one, then grab this Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32GB (2x16GB) DDR5 6000 CL36 kit with RGB for a low price of just $340 (purchase link under the specs table down below). The kit is compatible with both AMD and Intel systems as it supports both EXPO and XMP overclocking profiles, respectively. 6000 MT/s is often the sweet spot for many systems as it provides ample data transfer speed while still being on Gear 1 mode. This Vengeance variant has RGB so if you love bright setups with such lighting, this is a win-win for you. The technical specifications of the Corsair Vengeance memory kit are given in the table below: Specification Value Memory Type DDR5 Memory Size (Total) 32GB Kit Configuration 2 × 16GB Form Factor UDIMM (Desktop) Pin Count 288-pin Speed (Data Rate) 6000 MT/s Speed Rating PC5-48000 Tested CAS Latency 38-44-44-96 Voltage (Tested) 1.35V Performance Profile AMD EXPO & Intel XMP Heat Spreader Aluminum heatspreader Cooling Type Passive (Heatsink) Lighting Ten Zone RGB Software Support Corsair iCUE Get it at the link below: CORSAIR Vengeance RGB DDR5 32GB (2 x 16GB) 6000 CL38 – Gray (CMH32GX5M1E6000Z38): $339.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US, Fulfilled by Amazon US) This Woot deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
    • It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
