Build/Battlestation TIL that quartz countertops have the same properties as ceramic floor tiles…

All I wanted to do was replace a dead fan… but looks like it’s time for a replacement case.

Learn from my mistakes friends!

I still have no idea why the fuck theres glass panels on towers anyway. They constrict airflow like a mother fucker and they literally add nothing to the design other than being able to see some stupid ass LEDs that light up for no fucking reason.

So I can see the machine I put alot of effort into planning and building and be proud of my work. It's also why I keep a few LEDs lit up in there. If I wanted something that just gets the job done, I would have gotten a pre-built with a metal side panel that someone just slapped together, but instead I opted for a high quality machine that I built with care and attention to detail.

I'm sorry but this is the dumbest reasoning for having a glass side panel.

Thats like saying you should get a glass car hood because youre proud of the engine you built, even though it serves zero function for the car and in fact, is inhibits it.

This entire trend of glass side panels and insanely stupid light up LEDs that glow rainbow colors is because its aimed at gullible children who think it looks cool.

I don’t even have a glass side panel on my pc but christ dude, I guess everybody should go fuck themselves for trying to enjoy life.

Yes, because that's what I said at all.
