Algae is a plant, not a microbe.

Either way, it needs to be dead

I'm not really concerned from an aesthetic point of view as my case is tucked between my desk and a table, and it doesn't have a side window, but I do worry about the stuff gunking up the waterblocks over time and reducing cooling performance

Female to female, I can just hit them! But it might end up being easier and might even be cheaper to just do the whole PSU

Another option is extension cables. They are cheaper than the sleeved cable-kit from Corsair (and you can get the cables you need only).

Oh, Fractal Design. You so clever. ^^

That reminds me of that keyboard they ran over with a ferrari to prove it still worked afterwards.

Can just imagine a mythbuster episode "so we're here to bust the myth that computer sidepanels can't be used to stop bullets".

**DeltrusDisc** · 2012-07-04, 11:09 AM

Damn that's awesome!

I keep on telling people, very important to have bullet-resistant (maybe proof?) case side panels! bahahaha

Good to know that if you keep your computer on your desk beside you, you'll survive a drive-by.

Shame that if the side of my house were to be peppered by gunshot, my computer is protected by a foot thick concrete wall, while I am "protected" by a double-glazed window >.>

Co-incidentally, this happened this morning just the other side of town: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-18701975

OK, so it is the only time something like this has happened round here in decades, but still.

**Drunkenvalley** · 2012-07-04, 01:11 PM

Heh, I don't live on the first floor in any of the houses I live in, and most of them aren't very drive-by "friendly" either, lol.

**Cyanotical** · 2012-07-04, 03:23 PM

shotgun? meh, the impact is too spread out, try a rifle

**Drunkenvalley** · 2012-07-04, 03:54 PM

Now now, cyan, we don't want to open fire on the trees too.

And people go ballistic over a 25 dollar sparkle-pony.

**DeltrusDisc** · 2012-07-07, 03:04 AM

Darn, if only I had an iPhone.

If I still played WoW I would probably buy the Horde one. Only if it was $15-20 though.
