No offence, but colorblind people shouldn't build PC's. :blink:

What the hell is that thing?!

 

I'm lucky enough that my friends actually listen to my technical advice and therefore upgrade even better than I did sometimes T_T 

 

on a side note, I'm using an old handle case that doesn't even support cable management yet lol so inside my case looks like a crows nest. I could care less though as I made sure all cables are secure and the case is only opened for maintenance or testing of others components / creating backups.

My cousin was helping a friend build a micro atx system. The friend wanted the PSU fan facing up, and in a micro atx system with the GPU fan facing down, thats not a good idea. In the end they were about an inch away from each other, and they were both pulling air in. I guess that they some how canceled each other out and his GPU overheated and broke, but he sent it back and they gave him a new one.

CPU: Phenom II X4 965. GPU: Sapphire Vapor-X 7770. MoBo: AsRock 970 Extreme3. Ram: Corsair Vengeance 8gb 1600. PSU: Antec BP550. HDD: 1tb Seagate Case: RoseWill Challenger. CPU Fan: Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2. Monitor: Some crap gateway 1650x1050.

Nope, no stories since all my friends think building PCs involves some sort rocket science,..

Usb 3 pass-through for front panel. It's a poor design choice, though a few cases have it.

 

I believe you can use an adapter to have it run off the internal header instead.

Unfortunately didn't come with the case, and I didn't have one handy :P It doesn't look to bad now that I routed it behind the mobo tray ;)

Doesn't matter that the one you'd have built would likely also have had 8GB RAM in it :/

 

Possibly even two 4GB sticks instead of a mis-match of whatever 1, 2, 3 and 4 GB sticks were lying around in the factory warehouse gathering dust.

Bumping/necro/Rev basically, you're bringing an old thread back. This forum has a no bump/necro for threads over 3 months. So if it's three months old, it's not to be posted in

So my mate I haven't seen in a long time puts in a special request. It's for building him a PC. I go 'Ok, I got this. What's your budget?'... and all the rest of that product selection crap etc.

So we decide on parts for this PC, I'm totally cool for it, he's a mate, so I'll do it for free ;)

Today he messages me on Facebook with pictures of the new PC assembled, that he built. Naturally I'm mad, so I say to him

He gets the message. He says he built it with a close friend who recently had his father pass away, and I would have left it there but he offered for me to come around and fix it up.

Naturally I said yes :)

This his PC after he built it:

Just bad cable management really.

It's not as bad as when a customer while I was on work experience didn't use any mobo standoffs and I had to fix it :P

And this Is After I fixed it up :)

Got any n00b friends building their own PC stories?

Yeah looks totally better now, great cable management, i like it!

I just checked, the time is actually one month. So any thread older than a month is not to be posted in.

You would have had to of searched the depths of hell to find this thread. I see no reason why anyone who'd read the CoC in its entirety would have posted in it. Maybe make that top priority sometime today.
