I went to go click on "Open with" on my laptop and managed to accidentally select "Share." I have never used the share button before. It popped up with a dialog box saying "Search for people or email" with a list of suggested contacts. Difficulty: These are people I haven't communicated with in...

Wow! That's quite a case! I swear I'm like a kid in a candy store looking at all of these and thinking "I like this one...wait no this one! This one!" while going in completely different directions.

To be honest, I've been building PCs for 35 years and I kind of miss some of those simple old cases from the 80s and 90s. I don't need all those RGB things and would be totally fine with something that just had mesh or solid sides and no windows. I know there are plenty of SFF ones but I'm not...

The graphics card that'll be going in there is a Gigabyte Aorus 4070 Master (I think that's the name) that's 342mm long. As far as the air cooler goes I'm debating between the NH-D15 and the U-12A. (I've got both sitting around. The 12 may be a little easier to cram in there.) Funny you...

I am kind of digging that Nzxt H6 Flow case. I'm not seeing much about air cooled builds in those. Have any of you guys done it?

I haven't looked at that one yet, but the H6 Flow did catch my eye.

Thanks will check those out as well.

Thanks that Lancool 216 was one on my list to check out further. I'm kind of iffy on the O11 but it's nice looking too.

I've got another build coming up. I'll have an AMD 7800X3D cpu air cooled with either a Noctua D-15 or U-12a. I'll be using a full ATX (not EATX) motherboard, and a big 342mm (3 or 4 slot -- can't remember) sized GPU. I'd like some recommendations for a high quality case. Not really worried...

I've got a new build here with a 7800X3D processor and a 4070 GPU. (May be replaced this summer.) All my goodies are in a Fractal Design North XL case. I'm looking for something in the 850 or 1kw range that's got ATX 3.0 and PCIE 5 and could use any suggestions!

Thanks I'll check that out. I am probably paying way too much attention to these reviews. They are nitpicky and I see one little thing they say isn't perfect and think "well that's no good!" and 99% of them would be just fine.

While moving things around a put a big ol' gash in the front of my Dell 2721DGF monitor so now I'm in need of something new. This PC is in my home office and gets used for a bit of everything -- work stuff, some gaming, and movie watching when someone else is hogging the big tv. I want...

Thanks! I'll find a better use for that second drive. (Or send it back and put the $ towards something more useful.)

Yeah they are identical WD Black 2TB 7300MB/s SN850X NVME drives. I was going to use one in another PC then thought "heeeeey I could put those both in here and get the disk speed faster!" Perhaps I've been listening too much to the weenie at work who's always bragging about how fast his disks...

Hey all! I've never set up a RAID array before so I'm looking for suggestions/tips on my next project. I've got a pair of 2tb m.2 drives coming tomorrow. My plan is to do a RAID 0 array with the 2 of them for Windows and applications. I plan on just using my old 4tb m.2 for data files on its...
