They're pretty big holes. I think you could get some finer pencils in there. The reason they're so big is for stuff like this:
The case really looks unfinished without it. Almost half the top of the case is for mounting shit.
If you have liquids and food constantly going in the top of your PC then you have other problems.
Thanks for the reminder, I'll get on it.
I wonder if I should make some 'in case of sudden death' folders and leave them around.

Sitting in Price right now listening to the philosophy behind legal remedies actually. It's not sweltering but it's sure as hell not comfortable.
Meeting people, still difficult :T
Dont worry, you will be forced to meet people in jps tuts... in awkward japanese!

Are you serious? It's not like she's a pornstar. (I'm looking at you Carlton from Fresh Prince).
Yes!
Wait, seriously? Where? I want another 4gig ddr3 to get up to 8gig.
damn you two, temptng me with cheap awesome computer things.
The most noise anything would (or should) make in your case is the GPU fan. I didn't go out of my way to buy a "silent" case (Coolermaster 690-II Adv.) and the only noise I ever hear is when the GPU fans arc up. That 5970 is a motherfucker. BTW my particular case needs to have a drive cage removed to fit a bigger card in, so be wary of that if you were thinking about it. Having said that, the case with a near-silent CPU cooler (I have the Thermalright Macho, as good as the all in one watercoolers, quieter and far cheaper) and a Noctua fan (that I had laying around) at the rear. It's a tight fit, but minus the GPU you don't even know it's on. My NAS makes more noise!
For illustration:
(Note the distance b/w the CPU HSF and the rear case fan. Also note that I can't actually use the first RAM slot either! This is pre-5970 so the lower HDD cage is still attached.)
The AsRock Extreme 3 Gen 3 is cheap and does a REALLY good job. Only worthwhile stepping up the Gen 4 if you want (I think?) dual 16x PCI-E 3.0 for CFX or SLI and possibly some more USB 3.0 and SATA3 ports. But I've never found the need. Paid around $140 I think?
FWIW, that combo with some Ripjaw RAM and the 2500K nets me 4.9GHz <70C under load.
Yup. The only difference is in things like warranty and after-sales support.
Fake edit: Apologies if this covers old ground, had this tab open while doing other stuff at work. It should still help though
My 'puter that I bought last year has a cheap ASRock 1155 mobo. Case is a 690-II, got a 2500k, 8gb ripjaws and a 560ti trucking along. Just running stock cooling though. Runs cool enough, obviously gets loud while gaming. Even managed to stay within good temps in this 35+ degree heat. No problems with it yet, runs games awesome. *touch wood*
Also Stacey Kiebler is hot, whatchu talkin' 'bout Choc?

I've seen the odd game chew up a stupid amount of RAM, but maybe my PC just needs a bit of a tune.
32bit applications, ie video games, can only use up to 4GB. Hardly any games have 64 bit versions, Crysis is the only one I can think of. I believe there wasn't much difference between it and the 32bit version anyway, but it probably helped for crazy mods.

Never had a problem. Mine came with a top fan installed. Runs SUPER quiet, barely even know the PC is on. MSY had it for $90 when I grabbed it last year.

Well my 1366 MB is dead and to get a new one is pretty much too much of a head ache >.<
I assume my cpu is fine, everything else seems find, its just the mb is resetting constantly when I put power into it, unplugged everything and even took out the cpu, still screwy.
Um... I dunno, pay for shipping?
Um, should my after market cpu fan work on 1155 mbs >.>? I should check....

TwinFrozr cards are meant to run quiet. My mates 560ti is super impressive and is card I have had my eye on for the last 12 months.
Also grab a CPU cooler. Coolermaster 212+ is around $30 and a great option, super easy to install. I think the 212 Evolution is the new model of it released this year.

But not a radiator mounted to the top, right? The fan is inside? I'm sure it's perfectly functional, but it looks pretty low rent if you're not going to attach anything to the top. I was pretty disappointed when I bought one for someone else and discovered it basically looks like patchwork on the top, compared to the slick looking CM690II.

Radiator? No just a regular stock fan. Can't say I worry too much about what the top of the case looks like since I am the only one who would ever bother to look at the case for its aesthetics. I end up sitting the hub for my wireless headphones in the middle of the fan usually as it is a nice spot for it while still allowing airflow out up through the case. Seems to throw out a lot of air which is great I expect.
If I worried that much about looks I would go with a sleak case like Cookie (or the PCGAF thread) talked about. Some very SVEN looking ones that would look awesome if I had a modern looking office.
Pretty sure that's years old. 2009?

Fair enough! Was not sure if it was in fact spam crap or something written recently and of credit.
For twice the price? Why? For $6 more you can get a good looking case that does what the HAF 912 does for most people including you. I would get a Silverstone if I had $200+ to spend on a case. If you're giving advice to other people, looks matter.
Dat's ugly. Now, check out this beast:Already got this one!
Because sometimes, the rest of your PC's components need to know who the motherfucking boss is. And it's called "Macho". Doesn't get much more testosteroney than that.
I quite enjoyed it actually - I mean, if you love Uncharted (and how could you not), then you'll love Golden Abyss.
Yeah, alot of the touch screen mechanics are gimmicky - though some are fun, and some are quite clever. Nothing that completely detracts from the game itself, most of the time it's optional anyway.
