I have to agree that that case isn't great for hiding cables. The 8-pin power cord on my brothers wouldn't reach going behind the board and barely reaches going over the front (and it looks terrible). It wasn't a cheap PSU either, a 750W Zalman. Unfortunately, an 8-pin extension is absurdly priced.

Off-topic, I feel like the ATX form factor has many components in bad positions (nobody would have thought it would still be around at this time I bet), but its nearly impossible to change it now, so we make the best of it.

BTX was awesome but everyone whined and (at least for now) Inte has backed off pushing it.

Dude, be careful with all the wiring hanging down. One wrong move and your 360 tumbles off the shelf

Put it on the desk at least! 360s are not prone to falling.

I don't dare posting after looking at all those... Feels so stupid to have only one monitor and no external hard drive :D

If you don't need an external HDD, then why get one? because it's cool? I have 2.5TB on my PC, and I don't need an external drive. And I still have room for more... :)

And imo more than one screen for a pc is also redundant. unless you REALLY need it while doing some photoshop or something like that.

    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.

      Agreed, but now my muscle memory immediately creates a layer for each text portion, so editing is made a little easier.
