We are having renovations done on the house and my stuff is everywhere. I cant find the right size screws so i used matchsticks as a temporary measure.

Works a treat.....i might just shorten them and colour them in.

Any reason you don't make them like over lapping each other ?.

they interlock

Apart from around the trim which is where the two parts of the case join.

the drive tray is my favourite part ,it has changed a bit since this pic but you get the idea.

Old mod i did to a RC car, love to get another of these so much to fiddle with and belt driven ones are so much more fun, added some extra cooling to the IC's. Just no were to go with it as it was hitting around 50-60mph.

I have a 4" grinder and i like cutting stuff with it. Getting the corners right with the side panel was difficult with such a big blade but i covered up the scuffs with car touch up paint.

Once the builders correct the shoddy work they have done so far on my house i will attack poor "Hammy's" hamster cage for my next project...."PC in a hamster cage, hanging off the wall" :peace:

Hence the term rats nest.................I used to do installs(remote starters)I would be asked to fix other peoples installs. When you drop a dashboard it has a rats nest in it, OH but the guy has been doing it for years...........

My friend was complaining about a low-pitched grinding-sort-of noise coming from the fans of his new Gigabyte GTX 750Ti.

Problem was that the fans on this Maxwell GPU can't be set below 39% so he was stuck with it. I tried to mod his BIOS for him but ultimately nvflash would outright refuse any flashes with the modded BIOS even when override commands.

So his idea was to do this to lower the noise:

It works, but he thought the sound was still too high, so he completely runs the card passive.

Also, here is the picture of something else.

I have to give him props for getting creative with that suspended HDD. 'Cause it was causing all kinds of vibration in his case. Don't mind the badass looking cable management and the broken clips to lock in the graphics card in place.

Replaced my Netgear NWR3500L which had a very nice flat look so it was easy to just put under the desk. This DIR-826L though... not so much. But this works too. That is the base of a monitor arm BTW.

BTW, fan grilles makes excellent soap holders.
