    Wow thats crazy man... lucky you were near to turn it off quickly
    I nearly had a electrical fire last year when i was mining, i had about 15 cards sucking power off a old power strip and the cord was tucked under a rug ( for cable management you know )... Anyway cord got warm the rug got burned, I was lucky to be close because i think any later the rug would have gone up in flames

    I'll start this one.  Valentines Day, 2014.  Was having an intermittent issue where my PC (retail purchased) would shut down and restart only when I was using my web browser, was diagnosing that thing for days on end.

    Got  up from my chair and walked away, made it 10 feet when I heard a loud electrical SNAP!! Spun around and saw both my monitors go dark. Paused, then that burnt electronics smell hit me.

    I think the neighbors heard me yell "Are you effing KIDDING me?!?!?"

    Power supply fried the mother board.     Was so mad I tore that thing apart like a tornado.

    Which led me to my current build.

    I set up my rig as pos pressure but when the filters get clogged it turns into neg pressure which happens within a matter of a week

    Current project is just going to evolve for a while, but my next one will be a custom built desk with a glass top and everything in the desk under the glass, no case. Won't start that until probably mid 2016 though.

    Positive air pressure + dust filters = almost no dust problem, (almost). 

    For me, it's never being satisfied with cord management.

    HappyBuddhaman got a reaction from Tt-Van in What would you like to see more of from Thermaltake?   
    I agree, hoodies / T-shirts, and a 3 foot by 5 foot flag, I've seen them online in fan posts, but can't find them, basically all the stuff you see / give away at places like Computex, and the PC events on the west coast USA that people like myself (east coast) can't get to.

    But most of all, a FAN CONTROLLER that can compete against the likes of Lamptron, AND a mouse pad wrist rest compatible with the length of the DRACONEM.  I would also say custom liquid cooling options, but I know you're working on those.

    Possibly a few more "flagship" items?  Like some top end headphones (that go against the likes of Seinnheiser / Bose), or some top end PC speakers?  And I mean audiophile quality, something that will #### off the neighbors, but still have them admit "#### that's nice tho....". I know stuff like that is expensive and the market is limited.

    Is there any reason why Tt hasn't made RAM or motherboards?  Market over-saturation maybe?

    I also have the ASUS Front Base dual bay panel, and I love it.  Something like that would be awesome too.

    AND I STILL WANT TO BUY A TT GUY!!

    I haven't played it, but from what I've seen, IMO, it looks like it should be an add-on for BF4, not a new game entirely.

    HappyBuddhaman got a reaction from Avedis53 in Level 10 GT Front Panel USB question   
    Avedis53 - I havent purchased it yet, will within the next two weeks.  It attaches via a velcro strip, and is only 3.54 inches, so I'm thinking on the top of my card reader, or on top of the cd player, somewhere in the 5.25 bay area or the 3.5  bay area, so you can't see it through the window, and it would make it easy to route the wires behind the back plate of the case with the openings to the left of the 5.25 bays.  I'll take a few pics once I have it installed and post them.  My only issue is finding a USB header to attach it to on my MB, going to have to disconnect something to plug it in and re-route it, but I'm sure I'll figure that out.

    HappyBuddhaman got a reaction from AMG 225 in LEVEL 10 M Owner Club   
    After reading a lot of reviews about a lot of different headsets, I decided to get these in black.  I heard a lot of complaints about the base level, I don't know, maybe people wanted artificial base, or wanted to blow their eardrums out listening to EDM at some nuclear level, (nothing wrong with EDM) but I'm really enjoying these.  If paired with a good sound card or good quality on board audio (I'm using mine with the ASUS Formula VII MB, which has AMAZING on-board audio), they sound pretty #### good.  They are very flat, which I really appreciate, because I can control the sound easier than headphones that crank the bass and kill the treble.

    One piece of advice, could use a clip on the wire close to the volume control.  The volume control keeps getting caught right under the lip of my desk, if I could clip that volume control to my shirt, would just make things a little easier.   Something I'll add myself.

    I would love to see a custom liquid cooled job with that titanium case, I didn't think it could be done because of the separate compartments.  Maybe an external mounted cylinder reservoir , and some creative drilling....where to put the rads though....hmmmmmm.

    My first thought would be to shut everything down and 2x check all physical connections to the MB, re-seat everything, then uninstall the software, restart, re-install the software from the Tt website.

    Maybe you have a loose connection?

    HappyBuddhaman got a reaction from Tt Andy in Sata vs. Sata III?   
    All Sata is backwards compatible, so it should.  Check the back of the drive on your Sata 3, there might be jumpers there you'll have to place in order to force the drive to run at Sata 1 speeds.  Also make sure the BIOS is updated.

    Would this help?  I have the same issue where I have a card reader I can't install yet, as well as the front USB ports, this is solving my issue.  And, it won't take up a PCI slot, I couldn't find a PCI card with INTERNAL headers anywhere.

    Currently out of stock, but it was in stock about a week ago, they should get more in.

    EDIT - Can purchase direct from NZXT, and they do have it in stock, $19.99 w/ $4.99 US shipping.
