Or black. White PCB is pretty sick, though. Only a few motherboards have used it IIRC.

your battle station has loose gun hanging around. whats the gpu on the printer?

Judging by the HSF I am going to guess G92 based card, possibly 8800GTS if I had to guess a specific card.

Yes, there's sellotape on the SSD. And yes, there is a SATA cable with nothing plugged into it there. Don't judge me :)

BTW I never run with the side of my PC-60 case on cause it gets too hot. Doesn't bother me in the least!

I think we all need some clarification.

Dear Duct Tape Users:

Is it Duct or Duck? We don’t want you to be confused, so we will explain. The first name for Duct Tape was DUCK. During World War II the U.S. Military needed a waterproof tape to keep the moisture out of ammunition cases. So, they enlisted the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division to manufacture the tape. Because it was waterproof, everyone referred to it as “duck” tape (like water off a duck’s back). Military personnel discovered that the tape was good for lots more than keeping out water. They used it for Jeep repair, fixing stuff on their guns, strapping equipment to their clothing... the list is endless.

After the War, the housing industry was booming and someone discovered that the tape was great for joining the heating and air conditioning duct work. So, the color was changed from army green to the silvery color we are familiar with today and people started to refer to it as “duct tape*.” Therefore, either name is appropriate.

Today, Duck® brand Tape is manufactured by ShurTech. After thoroughly familiarizing ourselves with the hundreds of duct tapes on the market, we have found Duck® brand Tape to be the most consistent in quality. And, we are delighted with the large array of colors that they manufacture (including camo tape and new “X-Treme Tape” which comes in hot day-glo colors).

I gotta ask, why are you using a PCI pass-through for your tubing when your case already has provisions for running external tubing?
