Title: Anyone who can lend me a monitor and an empty ATX chassis?
Post by: faust82 on June 19, 2013, 02:37:37 PM
It's time to think ahead, and much like Switchback I have a laptop that no longer cuts the mustard. That means new thinking has to be done, and the best I've come up with so far is for me to bring a desktop rig. Somehow.
Two ways to go about that, one is to chuck the entire rig in my luggage, or I can disassemble the core of it and bring those components over, then stick'em in an empty case.

That means I need an emtpy ATX case. Any of you lot got one of those knocking about?
A monitor would be nice too.

Rent for these will be paid in Minttu. For those not inclined to get completely hammered, I'm sure you can sort out some sort of barter with Ninj. He's addicted to the stuff :D

Nice one.

If you're going to bring something all exposed like that then please let us know in advance and we'll seat you by a wall to minimise the risk of it getting knocked etc.
