    POLL: BMW M3 vs. Corvette Z06

    I think it goes without saying that you can get a lot more girls with an M3. Not to mention it's a much better ride all around. A corvette is a really big engine with a steering wheel.

    Maximizing Case Cooling

    I have this case: Here. The fan on the side only blows air out (I tried soldering it to blow air inside, but it didn't work). Then I put a fan on top of my case blowing air down.
