<0> well, whatever it is, put it down and go to asus.com
<0> or asus.com.tw
<0> whatever it is nowadays
<1> GDDR3 is a graphics card optimized form of DDR ram and it's *not* DDR3
<2> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811166007 <- would that be a good case?
<2> looks sweet
<1> DDR3 might come in 2008 or 2009
<2> ok then **** that
<2> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811166007 <- how good of a case do you think that is?
<2> im new to building computers
<0> looks kind of silly
<2> i think it looks sweet
<2> but, would it be good for heat, etc.
<1> the Antec P180 is a reasonably quiet and fancy case
<2> just looked at it
<2> i sort of liked it
<2> but this acryllic one looks sweet
<2> I know acryllic sort of insulates heat though
<2> Would http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowImage.asp?Image=11%2D166%2D007%2D12%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D09%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D11%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D13%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D14%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D15%2Ejpg%2C11%2D166%2D007%2D16%2Ejpg&CurImage=11%2D166%2D007%2D12%2Ejpg&Description=Sunbeam+AC%2DHUVB+UV+Blue+Clear+Acrylic+ATX+Mid+Tower+Computer+Case+%2D+Retail be any good (quitness and heat)
<0> doesn't matter
<2> woops
<2> thats the link to the image
<2> ><
<0> you aren't putting acrylic in between components and their heatsinks
<2> yeah i gues
<0> i've never had a problem with heat in a machine unless a fan died
<2> what is an ATX case?
<1> acrylic cases are EMC monsters
<1> they radiate **** out like crazy and they let stuff in too
<0> atx is a standard for size and spaces
<0> and maybe for powersupply tech specs, too
<2> i see
<2> EMC: electromagnetic compatibility?
<0> electromagnetic something
<0> emi
<1> well generally electromagnetic interference stuff. compatibility, standards, etc
<2> i see
<2> this is the first computer ill be building
<1> plastic cases do *not* p*** EMC tests, that's why you don't see OEM comps in clear plastic cases
<0> for your concerns, it's the size of the case that will fit an atx motherboard and an atx psu
<2> ok
<2> now, does it matter what company case i buy?
<0> not really
<2> like those thermaltek or w/e...do they have better heat handling then the others?
<1> if it's your first comp: get reasonably common and quality components
<0> cheaper ones will have sharper edges on the metal
<2> well, not my first computer, the first one I am building myself
<0> more expensive ones will have well rounded edges maybe some extra featurs that make putting stuff in the case easier
<2> but i do know my way around the inside of a computer
<1> buying stuff that has crappy drivers, or hardware incompatibilites is nasty
<2> well
<2> rukk will be helping me through MSN
<1> the legendary rukk ;)
<1> i suggest on getting an antistatic wrist strap ;)
<1> real men don't use those but it's so much easier not worrying if you are touching the case or not when the strap is always making contact
<1> and get a properly magnetic screw driver :D
<1> hunting for fallen screw is a PITA
<2> so
<2> should i just look through cases and look for one that looks bitching?
<1> lots of room and lots of time and patience
<1> i'd suggest a case that is practical
<1> P180 is nice and quiet
<1> HDD racks come off easy and disks are just snapped in
<1> there are tons of other nice cases too
<2> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811146018 <- What about that one?
<1> avoid stuff that looks like cheap plastic
<2> would that come with the LCD screen at the top?
<1> heheh, pimp case
<1> man, what is it with people and pimped up computers? :D
<2> because they look sweet
<2> here look
<2> http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowImage.asp?Image=11%2D209%2D020%2D13%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D02%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D03%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D04%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D14%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D05%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D06%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D07%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D08%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D09%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D10%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D15%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D16%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D020%2D11%2Ejpg%2C11%2D209%2D02
<2> would that come with the lcd screen and cathodes or leds or w/e they are?
<2> 1) Lots of fan grills and fans (120mm on side, 80mm on back, room for 80mm on top and two in front. 2) Screwless design for cards and drives 3) Temp readout is great, if installed properly
<2> screwleses design sounds cool
<1> well, i consider stuff like that secondary
<1> even tertiary. opening up the case twice a year doesn't require thumb screws everywhere.
<2> yeah i know
<3> oi
<3> me case is even more pimp
<3> http://hardware.stfu.ca/
<4> wow what an eyesore..
<1> un-pimp my auto
<4> for sure.
<3> eyesore? >:\
<2> omg
<1> the newest and most horrible fad up-to-date is the plastic carbon fibre look-alike film on the hoods of cheap cars
<2> why do manufacturers have to put their logo right on the front of their product
<2> case (pun intended) in point: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811209020
<3> are you guys talking about my case?
<3> :(
<4> yes, your case is an eye sore
<3> and that meannnns?
<2> it sores peoples eyes
<3> cool!
<3> well the side panels arent in yet so..
<4> your case is the equivolent of a 'riced up' honda if it was a car
<3> except it actually performs
<4> right.. sorry but i don't play 3dmark05 in my spare time, i play video games.
<3> same here :D
<3> Sorry if your computer ****s too much to get a decent 3d mark score
<3> you dont have to take it out on me
<4> your case ***aults the eyes with all those lights.
<3> the lighting is the thing i get the most compliments on
<3> but to each their own
<2> but you shoved a bunch of lights in their *** and are bragging
<4> compliments , from who your mom ?
<2> lol nuumber17
<2> way to beat a dead horse
<3> no
<3> hardforum

<3> lets see your comp
<4> sure one sec..
<3> its probably a piece of ****ing ****
<4> yeah it sure is..
<4> i bought it from walmart
<3> mines equiviliant to a riced out honda? Yours is probably the equivilant of a ****ing PT Cruiser
<2> Mine pwns all of yours
<2> Pentium IV 1.8GHz, Geforce2 MX, 512MB of SDRAM
<2> aww yeah
<2> what now?
<2> bitches

<3> nice.
<4> willamette p4 ?
<2> its a compaq
<3> number i still dont see your pc
<2> Compaq Presario 5000T
<3> yea I actually built mine...
<3> you know...put actual time into it
<4> Anyone can do that these days
<3> doubt it
<3> I really do
<3> with 2 watercooling loops
<3> it wasnt particularly easy
<4> sure..
<3> sure?
<3> what dont you believe about that?
<2> fidellity, stop your bragging, it isnt that hard to put a watercooling loop through a computer
<3> no
<3> but i doubt "anyone" can do it
<4> http://img324.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dcfn00027om.jpg there behold the ****tiness in all its glory!
