24GB of GSkill 2666mhz

Feel a little better seeing another “classic“ case makes my antique not feel so lonely
My plan is to build sleeper out of it, make some sort of cable hiding panels (3D print or just bend aluminum)

I wouldn’t refer to it as an antique. Vintage?

Yeah I suppose that’s more appropriate. 2007 model with a modern AMD system could also possibly call it a resto mod?

Well my old girl ain‘t no slouch behind the panel so I totally support your plans

Haven't posted in a while I think the only new stuff is the Monitor LG 27GN850-B and the Ram although I've posted that separately
Just waiting for a 5950X and a 3080ti/3090 to pop up.

Trying to figure out where I can add more RGB.... :pimp:

The glass table top would be a candidate for some RGB strips underneath.

My old PC from 2008.

This is the Acer Aspire series, originally meant to be a business desktop (a moment of silence goes out to all those gamers who get tricked into buying business desktops because they can't spend much/don't know any better).

Originally had Windows XP on it(really nice OS), now running Ubuntu 18.04.

Original specs:
Core 2 Duo E4600 dual core CPU - couldn't upgrade this because the motherboard didn't support <65nm C2Ds
Intel 945GCZ chipset motherboard (from ECS I think)
CPU cooler from Thermalfly (it came with a backplate, but it also went upto 3600 RPM when on full load, making the whole chassis hum)
1x1GB DDR2-667 RAM - now upgraded to 2x1GB(only 2 slots RAM! :cry:)
Integrated graphics - upgraded to Asus EN210 Silent and then to a GTX 650 - really powerful card for this setup and a 1080p monitor
A 250W PSU from Delta - surprisingly good if underpowered PSU - now upgraded to a Corsair CX430 v2
OEM DVD writer - now an LG one
Hitachi Deskstar 160GB HDD - still in there plus a 60GB Kingston SSD that I bought later

Case only supports MicroATX motherboards. Was originally going to sell this thing but now that I see how bulky large ATX towers can be, I'm starting to appreciate it. Plus, they weren't screwing around with that front panel. Plan to desolder two of those 2.0 USB ports and replace them with 3.0s and get new internals when I come around to building a new MicroATX build.
