    front panel headers, why does it has to be connected one by one, there should be a one-snap-universal connector or something

    molex because they are garbage, especially connectors on cheap products.  I've had a ton that just don't want to go together, some that don't want to come apart and then some that do crazy stuff like the "pass through" type where pins start shooting out the other end.  
     
    I only have a couple molex left though, I've converted the rest to eps connectors and my life is better for doing so

    While I agree with you, I'm also afraid of them doing this. EA recently have been pushing out half assed games and when I play BC3 I want it to be something that lives up to BC1 & 2, not something that shits all over the originals and requires 10 expensive dlc's to have the full experience.

    Viking Kong got a reaction from handymanshandle in How to fund pc build?   
    This is true. That's completely fine if you save for each part and buy when you can , I believe working and earning things yourself is far more rewarding than being handed what you want,  and more appreciative.

    Yeah, I know it makes more sense to buy everything at once. However I feel like it'd be too tempting to buy something else than the PC part(s) so that's why I bought my H440 now rather than waiting until I had the money for the rest of the computer.
     
    I could've used that $117 for food and crap that I don't really need that the money spent on it could be more wisely invested/spent into a PC part. (By food I'm not talking about like groceries, but rather eating out and the likes) a few trips to Chipotle, McDonald's, BK, etc. can quickly reach $120 or really any amount to be frank.
     
    I agree though, I knew back when I played with the idea of building a PC that it was going to be something I was going to have to pay for by myself or mostly by myself.
     
    The H440 I bought was paid for by a mere 16 hours of work at $10/hr from my previous job. (That was nearly nothing from previous pay periods which were 14 days apart, the most I had in one pay period was 41 hours though that was at $9/hr)
    Though I make 25 cents less at my new job, at $9.75/hr, the work is better. I went from being a Grill Cook at McDonald's to being a cashier at a grocery store. In the grand scheme of things though, the whole PC will cost me hundreds of hours of time that I could be using do to pretty much anything else but I think it's valuable to have a job while in high school. Considering it'll be only a short while before you're on your own paying for all the bills.
     
    Though I feel like that's besides the point, I understand that troubles OP is facing because I was sort of in that position. Though I guess the difference was I didn't expect my mom to fork out x amount of monies/currency for something I wanted which wasn't related to a need/necessity because I could've stuck with my Xbox 360 and have been just fine because I would be gifted a years' subscription to XBL. I only have a PS4 because there was this thing Best Buy was doing where we got $500 between 2 $250 gift cards for activating two new phones at Best Buy.

    My main reasons for thinking that email are sketchy is A) why would they email you? B) if it was in the spam folder, there's probably a reason C) (and this is frankly the biggest one) the sender was "GTX970Administrator@qgemail.com"?  are you kidding me?

    Viking Kong reacted to Bouzoo in Mass Effect Andromeda gets a new teaser for the N7 day   
    First of all, happy N7 day. It's that day again when we learn a few more things about ME games, or this year Andromeda in particular.
     
    Second, we knew a new video was about to land, or some news at least, and this one... let's just say it really got to me. Watch it and you'll know what I'm talking about.
     

     
    So one thing that we learned from this is that in ME timeline, it's after the first 3 games (unless this was announced at some point so I've no idea about that). I'm curious if your decisions from the first 3 games will have some impact on the game, but I doubt that. It would be also interesting if we'd end being the kid that Stargazer was telling the stories about Shepard. 
    We'll see everything in... 1 year. So much time until the game is released.
