SilverStone surprised us all with this retro inspired computer case is quite amazing and extremely bold. The first thing you will notice is the unassuming beige that was common in the early PC era starting with the original IBM PCs and then carried forward for over twenty years. This case is built on the success of the FLP-01 and is proving to be even better.
It would seem that LCD is the new ARGB and Thermaltake is jumping in with booth feet to create the Minecube AIO. This quad screen LCD is used to decorate an otherwise simple AIO with LCDs that can be daisy chained together or operated independently.

The Consumer Electronics Show is a great event for anyone interested in technology and it doesn't matter if you are interested in existing tech or want to see the future, you can find it at CES. Of course locating exactly what you are after does take some work
One thing most enthusiasts hate about hardware upgrades is the need to buy all new cooling gear. Historically this has been a problem since the days of the board mounted heatsink starting with the AthlonXP and Intel 478. While the length of time between socket changes has helped take the sting out of buying new gear the fact you have to do it is the issue.
Having used LN2 before we set out to refine our techniques and actually learn how to use it to our advantage. How better to learn than with friends and a leading LN2 expert.
