Wire Management

[clocker]

Some people's kids.

Yesterday I saw a homebuilt comp where the builder has mounted two 60mm fans on the RAM modules and removed the fan from the stock ABIT northbridge HS ( which is a useless POS to begin with) leaving it bare.

Couldn't quite grasp the logic of that move.

The Chieftec dragon cases are lower quality knock-offs of the Antec Performance series cases.


For example:

Here is the cheaper knock-off Chieftec Dragon DX-01W:




And the original higher quality/priced Antec SX835II
Performance Series:

If the chieftec one is lower quality then the Antec must be amazing&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;
