    Question BQ! Silent Base 802 or Fractal D. 7 (full or compact)

    I have 2 R6 cases which I think are close to the R7. I think they are great cases however the design is getting a bit old. If would only get an R6/R7 if you have spinning hard drives or a need to a DVD drive. The front section of the case is not needed unless you have "legacy" hardware that...

    News Lian Li's O11D EVO Is a Morphing Case Monster

    Great article. Photos and text are both outstanding. I think this will be my next case. I think the options I want are the vertical GPU stand and top IO panel. I'm thinking white. Any idea how and when to order one?

My triple screen (running in surround) sim racing rig is connected to the 3 display port connectors and my photo editing display at a separate desk is connected to one of the HDMI ports. I use the "windows key"-"P" hotkey to...

    [SOLVED] Triple Slot RTX Fit in a Fractal Design R6

    [SOLVED] Triple Slot RTX Fit in a Fractal Design R6

    I mount my video card vertically in a Fractal Design R6 case. It looks like the new RTX3090 will be a triple wide card. Do you think it would fit in a R6 case using the vertical mount? It seems the vertical mount only handles up to double wide.

    News Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 and GA102: Everything We Know

It would be interesting to know how many more they would sell at $1300 vs $2000. I tend to believe they sales number difference would not...
