    Removing the HDD cage, moving the HDD and SSD into the 5.25" bay

    Hello! I'm looking to buy a new GPU and I'm considering the GTX 780 from Asus. Unfortunately, it's longer than 280mm so it could only fit in my Sharkoon Nightfall case if I remove the HDD cage. The cage is removable, that wouldn't be an issue, but I'm wondering if it's safe (in regards to...

    Hi guys, I know this thread has been started quite a while ago, but I've been busy and we've had holidays and all, however, this topic is actually still quite relevant for me - anyway, I've bought the iPad Air and I can say that for me it does a tremendously good job with what I do as a teacher...

    Well, I guess the 0.5 lbs difference in weight isn't such a terrible encumbrance, on the other hand I would probably regret not having such a great resolution in the long run. So if Mac then definitely Pro. But the price really is high. Is the 128 GB SSD really that much slower than the 256 GB...

    Upgrade to i7 4930k or wait?

    Well, it's all here. Even the RAM has arrived quicker than I expected, so everything is set and running. It turned out that the old CPU-cooler indeed cannot fit the 1150 socket, so I had to exchange it for a Scythe Mugen 4. The good thing is that the fan itself is somewhat flexibly attached to...

    Upgrade to i7 4930k or wait?

    Seems that I actually had 4 x 2 GB ValueRAM inside, so no upgrade with the existing kit possible; I have to buy a completely new one, so I decided on this 16 GB kit from G-Skill...
