A colleague of mine gave me his old TRS-80 Color Computer 2... Since I'm interested in hardware history, I accepted it. Now, I was wondering where I could find some old floppies and cartridges for it... Or would it be best to get rid of it/sell it (and hand over the profits to my colleague)...

I recently discovered my H100i wasn't cooling my 3770K properly in my Bitfenix Prodigy case. (OCCT standard test was aborted after 9 seconds @ 92 °C...) I wanted to replace it with one of my spare CPU coolers, but I noticed my TPC 800 and 412S are just too big and would need a 90°...

I just assembled my new black Bitfenix Prodigy: CPU: i7 3770K CPU cooler: Corsair H100i with 4x Corsair AF120's (push-pull) RAM: 2x Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 CL8 (now 1x though) Mobo: Gigabyte Z77N-WIFI SSD: Samsung 840 Pro 256GB GPU: Club 3D HD 6870 1GB (until my GTX 670 FTW SIG2 arrives)...

Since I ditched the "as white as possible" idea for my Bitfenix Prodigy, I'd like to know what you guys think about this instead: Case: Bitfenix Prodigy Silver (white) CPU: i5 3570K CPU cooler: Noctua NH-D14 (white+red) RAM:G.Skill Ripjaws X PC12800 CL9 (red) Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z77N-WIFI iZ77...

Since I'm planning on creating a "as white as possible" PC, I suddenly had this idea about getting a completely white motherboard (with black connectors maybe)... (mITX!!) Does anyone here have any ideas who I should contact for that?

I decided to build a really cheap quadcore PC for a change and I was amazed by the cheapness of the packaging :p Only the case box and the box containing the rest of the components were opened for this picture. (The Gigabyte GPU was ordered separately, so no complaints about that one.)...

Well, since I haven't posted an introduction thread yet, here it is. I've been building computers for myself (and others) for 14 years now. I caught the bug quite early at 8 years old, but I sticked to pre-assembled computers back then. At 12, I ordered a computer in bits, thinking it would...

I've been planning on getting a completely silent PC which was a tad better than what TTL once reviewed (Quiet-PC). Just as a little project. (I've got enough PCs already.) So I've finally assembled the build: Fitting that CPU cooler was fairly annoying, but I managed. But I've got a problem...
