Wow.

 

[fishstickz]

Let me be the first to say:

I don't get it.

Putting an AMD64 in a Dell case? Or is there something I am missing?

?????????????????????????????????????????????????

 

[Hacp]

Maybe he was upgrading his POS dell.

 

[AmberClad]

Lemme guess, you couldn't afford a real case, so you rip all the parts out of the Dell and put in your parts...

Computer cases really aren't that expensive you know .

 

[Topweasel]

If you have the case then why not? It is a nice jab in their face, and its not like they are bad cases. Its like the guys modding a G5 case for an intel or amd rig.

 

[Macro2]

A Snowball wrapped in S**t.

Don't forget he's using one crappy (although pretty cool looking) aspire PSU!

 

[Hacp]

Aspire sucks, amd rox.

 

[yosuke188]

lol such irony

 

[swatX]

haha yes the aspire PSU sucks and i will get a antec neopower soon though. The reason i put it in a dell case is because its not that i cant get a casse. i can probably get a lian-li but then again i would have to throw away the dell case. so i just put it in the dell case for the heck of it.

this dell was more than 2 years old and it was already out of warrenty. and the motherboard was gone to sh*T so thats why i decided to upgrade it. the psu comes with too many connection and its probably isnt meant for mATX motherboards.

Hay i like this Idea i have a Dimension 3000 laying around. you think this SLI Board will fit BIOSTAR N4SLI-A9 ? Does the Dimension 4600 have more space then the Dimension 3000 b/c looks like it was a tight fit already.

 

[Silversierra]

I think all low/mid level dell's are matx, so I doubt a sli board will work in one, unless some company follows my matx sli amd 939 board suggestion.
