Do you get commission on these or something?  Cheesy


I wouldn't get a lot of commission on £12, but seriously they are fucking awesome.

No stupid backplates to ruin your motherboard with and they're cheap as fuck compared to some (craptastic) designs.

I'm still meaning to get one but keep spending all my spare cash on:

a) Beer
b) Football

Bonus time at the end of Feb though, it's supposed to be going towards the wedding but I might keep £100 or so back to uprade the PC.

you could easily knock £100 off by downgrading the processor, graphics card and RAM. personally i think 4gig is a bit overkill


looks a decent set up. but don't you need additional fans inside the machine or are they already inside?

reason i ask is cos my Dell has 6 fans inside it to keep it cool

Extra fans are for wooseys!  

One extra fan internally is never a bad thing but fear not as they are about £1.25 each!

Dell use fans to save the cases melting under the extreme heat of components jam packed in (famous asian bus driver from love thy neighbour!) with no air circulation around them.

Don't forget Windows Media Centre Sam, or perhaps you could use a free application like this:

Yeah, I'm not forgetting that. But I can get it cheaper than the £50 licence fee from "a friend".
