I'm finally rom-drive free in my system. I have an external I can use if I need it. Now I got a spare open 5.25 bay in my machine, other than fan controllers, what are some sweet devices that will fit in there?

 

Suggestions?

Maybe upgrade to a case without them? They look bad, and even worse when they are full of stuff.

Anyways, german (I presume) article here. (link)

 

Best ones:

  • MOAR FAN. (not controllers, but just fans)
  • Spare PSU
  • Places to put extra 2.5, 3.5 inch drives
  • A drawer
  • Cassette player :D (cause why not)
  • A legit cupholder
  • but best of all.... ANOTHER PC.

Want to know which mobo to get?

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

Those are awesome! Unfortunately I don't have room for that. I have a 120mm fan in the way lol. Very cool though. Makes me wish my atx case now.
