The Mother Board

It's looking pretty good :D Looks like you can get the motherboard to sit a bit lower by using different screws on the underside of the heatsink or chopping down the existing ones, It shouldn't be hard to find screws with the same thread in a general hardware store (usually they are M4 thread). If y...

The penny drops. Done a bit of reading I think I understand a bit more why this forum suddenly got so quiet around 2012 now :lol: I never payed much attention to the actual website - I just came here for the forum. I noticed that channelpro had taken over the front page but thought Elric had just so...

Are you running an external PSU? You may need to chop a hole in the top of the case, above the CPU cooler so it can suck in co...

Hope I'm not getting the wrong end of the stick here. Heatsink screws just touching the case unlikely to cause you any problem. Would be a problem if it is pushing up the motherboard against tension of mobo fixing screws and bowing the motherboard though. Motherboard not screwed down, using velcro e...

For a moment I thought I'd be the earliest member to reply to this thread, but Mark has me beat there.
Forum is almost 20 years old, scary!

Various pages are still down, I actually quite like Quorthon though.
The hacker celebrates is crimes on his facebook wall.

Do you think his data is more reliable? Because he doesnt even ...
