Quote from: albert;432659I cleaned my PC out today and I can tell you no glass or plastic panel is a great idea. The static you get from cleaning them and in the end all they show is dust.

I use one already but the dry spring here left talc like skin dust all over the place which is like a powder and needs a real blast to remove. I have a mains powered dust blower, it gets all the dust out of the radiators for the hydro coolers and also from underneath. Well worth the4 price of half a dozen air canisters.
Cheers, Bert

I once cleaned out an inch of desiccated moth parts from the bottom of Frenzy's PC. He left it on 24/7 with a couple of LED fans attracting the victims.

QuoteYour system is now at stage 5 out of 9; our engineers are now installing the operating system selected at the time of order and updating all drivers for installed hardware. Once all software has been installed and updated your machine will run our suite of intensive tests to ensure stability.

Once your machine has passed our testing suite successfully it will move to stage 6 "24 Hour Burn In".

QuoteYour system is now at stage 6 out of 9, if you have purchased an overclocked machine our engineers will now overclock and fine tune the system via the motherboards BIOS, a profile will be saved for both standard and overclocked settings.

Your 3XS system (overclocked or at standard clocks) will then be put onto an intensive 24 hour soak/burn in test, this test is designed specifically to put the machine under 100% load to ensure complete stability over a period of 24 hours.

Once your machine has passed our 24 hour burn in it will move to stage 7 "Quality Control".

Estimated time to despatch - 3 working days.

Just HURRY UP!!!

Quote from: smilodon;432664The best bit about Scan is that they fill the box with sweets just before they seal it for delivery !

So we get to use Oldies new PC as a piñata at the next lan.

Bring baseball bats.

Sadly no. They put the sweets in the cardboard box the PC comes in..... not into the actual PC case itself. Which I think would be far better if a bit gooey when it gets hot. Are melted jelly beans thermally conductive?

Whatever's gone wrong it's not my fault.

I'm more than willing to open the pc up, fill it with skittles, and hang it from the ceiling. I'm sure OB won't mind. :norty:

QuoteYour system is now at stage 7 out of 9, having successfully completed its final assembly your system is now moving through quality control. At this stage your machine will complete an 88 point check covering all aspects of the 3XS build process and generate a report that's provided with the finished system.

Once your machine has passed our quality control stage it will move to stage 8 "System Built".

Estimated time to despatch - 1 working day.

The weekend looking like a possibility then :yahoo:

I think I've had more updates about your PC than I did on the birth of my kids.
