They don't make cases like they used to. Old cases are becoming collectible. I definitely wouldn't junk it. You should be able to sell it.

Was the mobo as well or just the card?

That's why I bought it on GOG, because I never played it before. I couldn't get into it because of the controls though. Learning 30 different key binds is not something I miss from old games. I didn't expect it to be on someone's worst games list...

Manufacturer recommendations are super conservative because they don't know what else you have in your system. What CPU, overclocking, etc. For example nvidia recommends a 650W for 3060Ti. 3060Ti in a system with a Ryzen 3600 barely draws 300W...

You can contact customer support to remove a game. They removed it for me before.

Sounds like another delay, no evidence that it's actually being cancelled. Obviously not good for Intel. I would be shocked if they cancelled before releasing at least 1 or 2 gens of cards.

I didn't expect Left 4 Dead to still be this popular.

Feels like everyone is doing it nowadays. I would be embarrassed to own most of the cases on the market.

I still use the PC-777b aka "Snail Case" as my daily driver.

Both of those cases are mint.

91% efficiency at 50% load vs 89% efficiency at 100% load. With modern PSUs the difference is so small that it doesn't practically matter. You will also lose efficiency at lower wattage, which negates some of the savings at high load. Unless you...

Cooler Master HAF 930. She's a beast. Plenty of room in there.

Cooler Master HAF 930. Old School

The bottom mounted 5.25 inch drive looks interesting. I haven't seen it before or expected manufacturers to bring 5.25 inch bays back. For each 5.25 inch drive you lose a 3.5 inch though.

The new setup is up and running on the 400w, I added a 970pro500gb, just cause I could, but I do not like the looks of the cooling. If I figure how to clone the windows install over I will probably swap it for the 960250gb and leave the buried...

You can claim the games with a free trial of Prime as well

That's not how PSU ratings work. The peak output of the PSU is still 400W, it will just draw 480W from the wall to reach that 80% efficiency rating. But OPs PSU is a platinum rating, which is ~90% efficiency, so it would only draw ~440W from the...

Nvidia can recycle the defective GPUs.

At least Nvidia didn't call it GTX 1650* (*GDDR6 64 bit) like they did with the GT 1030 DDR4.

you should put that as your motto or avatar
