Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

:smileyvery-happy: You under estimate my cabling?

4x SATA HDD's, an SSD, BluRay, DVD, on top of the ATX and GFX power cables... let alone the molex ones going to my fans.... No thank you. LOL.

Just gonna contact the manu. for a warranty replacement... I hope.

Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

Well, I figured 2 hours for the whole process: Untying everything, pulling the PSU out, connecting it up to the HTPC, testing that, unhooking it, putting it back in the original case, and re-tying it back neatly.

But yeah, pulling it out alone, half hour or less. 5 minutes or less for someone who's done it before.

Macrobb... you're not quite understanding how large this computer is.

@Red/Crystal, yeah that huge monster.

Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

Psh.. if it's not reconfigurable/changable then it has no place in *my* network.

Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

Suuure.

Can't be /much/ worse than mine:

<a href="http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/937/20111005007.jpg">http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/937/20111005007.jpg</a>

Which has 3 HDs, CD, Audigy audio breakout and custom power bay(6 bays worth vs your seven); any number of fans and other bits hacked in one way or another, and the large CPU cooler which is actually too big for my case. It still only takes 10 minutes to pull the PSU.

Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

Cuz you don't have any of your cables ran behind the mobo... from what I could see lol.

I just ordered a new PSU, heck with it.

Re: Help, my brethern, I need it

George.. I consider you a good friend and all.. and I really enjoy our conversations.

 

I just have to say..

 

Why would you run cables BEHIND a motherboard? As a technically inclined guy you *know* you're going to have to tear that system apart one day :smileyhappy:
