    Cut out the logo, put in some smoked glass (not a polymer, actual glass) and it'd be sexy as fuck!
    I know that that won't increase airflow, but damn that'd be sexy.
    Or get a see-through-ish mesh I guess

    well it went something like
     
     
    For a good part of the year when I was a mac user and couldn't be bothered to consider buying a pc until I was struck on the head by the norsegod Linus and everyone was all like oh my gawd titan is god titan is life. Then doge stole that slogan...
    Amd had an announcement of their new gpu's which sadly were not called the 9000 series much to @CoolBeans Dismay, then Miley cyrus had that little thing where she went insane and we got to look at some sideboob on a wrecking ball. The 290x turned out to be a flop because amd undermined their own card. Haswell turned out to be a doge of an overclocker. Much hot, such hurtz (sorry I had too) Nvidia was all like oh were releasing a 780 which is going to be like a titan but more skimmed down for the geforce series. And then everyone was like dude don't buy a titan, and then @LinusTech bought a titan for his own rig and then went onto the wan show saying that the titan is dead for doge knows why. Now the 780 ti is out but everyone wants a 6 gig model of the card. Xbox one was going to be always on but then it wasn't, and then it was, and then it had to call home once a day or else microsoft wouldn't pay the ransom. Playstation 4 made fun of microsoft in a instructional video that some deemed "unprofessional" And then they both turned out to struggle with 1080p, which is a bit pathetic, Amd is refusing to update the FX series and at this point its stupid to buy into the socket. The guy from a movie I only saw because my 1st girlfriend dragged me to see at the theater died in a car wreck and everyone was all like "#Rip" and then nelson mandella died and everyone was all like "#WhiteHouseSelfie"

    Ok, time to do some modding / designing.
    First picture would be the original ram with the sticker taken off.
    I then took off the top heatsink, it's easy to remove with a small allen key.
    After that, I took the heatsink and painted it black.
    After that, I took some scotchbrite 3m pad to sand it to give it a paint tearing like look.
    It looks what I wanted. So I put it back and install it back.
    Enjoy the pictures.

    People need to know that viruses are much more sophisticated nowadays. Back in the day, virus might have slowed down your computer or tried to corrupt some key files. They might have also turned your pc into e-mail spamming machine. However viruses today sit quietly on your computer and try to collect data as much as possible without the user even noticing. The days have gone, where you could actually know if you have a virus on your computer, because the characteristics of a virus has changed. I'm quite sure that many tech savvy people might even have some type of malware in their machine, because they think they know better and don't use any protection whatsoever. They are likely the most vunerable to these "quiet attacks". You don't have to even visit suspicious websites in order to get a virus.

    I can vouch for this 100%. I did a 4 month internship at the local library, and one computer caught this virus (we never did find out how originally, most likely spam email they shouldn't have clicked on, but who knows?), and it literally spread to every system on the network (That is 100+ computers). It was a newer variant too, so Avast and Malwarebytes did NOT clean out the infection. Kaspersky Endpoint (The new antivrius they just got) was the only thing that worked in the end, plus we had to clean all computers, since some of the infected ones kept trying to reinfect the clean ones. It was a nasty bitch to get rid of.
     
    To those of you who say "I'm Tech Savvy, I have common sense, I'm fine without an Anti-virus", I say, if this gets past your firewall, you're boned. You won't even know you have it until it's too late (Symptoms sometimes don't show up until days later). This could easily be put on a hi-jacked website, and then all the common sense in the world won't save you.
     
    Don't want to get a virus? Stay offline. Even Mac and Linux aren't 100% safe (They are only more safe because they are less targeted).

    True what you say, when the damage is done it's too late to whine about it, so to say.
    But if you really do feel that antivirus is unnecessary on a windows machine
    then manual scan is better than nothing.
    I personally would not run windows without antivirus with real time protection on.

    I was thinking this earlier. As someone said. Common sense is the best but there is the rare occurrence that something happens out of your control, like your dad downloading more ram (Not my dad, a friends) thats when they are nice but i hate how they always get all up in your junk. I would prefer not using one.
