Bought my CM HAF XB EVO brand new and it seems to be missing 2 x front panel cover sfor the left-hand side and a single plastic slider for the HDD's at the left-side/rear as seen in photos below. Does anyone have any extra parts they'd be willing to sell? I am based in Canada. Thanks!

Hey guys, so I recently bought a used R9 280x (just the card, no adapters or extras) as to replace my GTX 660. Unfortunately I came home to find out that the 280x requires both a 8-pin and a 6-pin connector from my PSU. I have a decent PSU that I'd bought many years back, an Enermax Liberty...

Ez [H] crew! Was just wondering if maybe anyone had some extra screws for mounting hard-drives in a Lian-Li v1000 hard-drive bay. They look like this right here... I can't seem to find them reasonably priced online, $10+ for just 4 of them. Anyone got the link out there? Thanks a lot. :)

Ez [H] crew, was hoping you guys can offer me some advice here on what I can do to resolve this issue. A few weeks ago I had accidentally deleted an entire 1TB partition (video storage) through Windows Disk Management (no fucking "Queued Jobs > Apply" process). So I immediately ran some...

Well, I'm actually planning on buying a second one. I bought one of these back in 2006 and it works as good as ever. By far my favorite mouse I have ever used. Nothing can pry it from my dead cold hands! Now I'm looking to buy another one however they are evidently discontinued. I can find some...

Hi there everybody at [H]! So I made the choice on release date to purchase a copy of Left 4 Dead, sure enough it's a great game but I'm having a serious issue which makes it almost unplayable. Every 2 - 3 minutes of completely smooth gameplay, never dropping below 60FPS, the game will lockup...

Hey [H]! I'm building a new rig for a customer of mine who's main focus is short-to-medium length video-editing with Pinnacle Studio. Having never built a video-editing rig before, I am quite frazzled as to what video-card and CPU would work best for a setup he is requiring. Price-range is $600...
