    Question My first build. Didnt go as planned.

    Yeah,I'm gonna go with 1 stick of ram module as you & everyone has suggested. Idk,I thought i could use the extra 8gb ram that was lying around but now that cost me more so i'll take your advice. Yeah always wanted RX5700 but settled for the 580. Thanks for the suggestion,I needed this.

    Question My first build. Didnt go as planned.

    I can return the memory sticks but not sure about the motherboard or graphics card. Motherboard i have broken the clip and may have damaged the board itself :/. VGA card also might be damaged in this process. I could give a try to return it but highly doubt it will be. Yeah, I guess i should've...

    Question Is the Cooler Master HAF XB EVO lan box good enough for 2020?

    I totally agree with you. I'm glad i bought this case and it has so much room that i could fit all the parts and have enough space for air flow. But yeah the open vents on the sides catch a lot of dust and i have cats so i'm gonna have filters attached there. I tucked in the aio fans to the...

    Question Is the Cooler Master HAF XB EVO lan box good enough for 2020?

    Yes i do. I have an 8gb RAM stick and AIO cooler 240 mm Mercury. I also got an RX580 for a cheaper price. I got the case and everything is perfect.Except for couple things. The PC isnt booting up and the led on my motherboard lights up and beeps twice.No display. While troubleshooting i killed...

This is a much better...

    Question Is the Cooler Master HAF XB EVO lan box good enough for 2020?

    Your personal opinion does make lot of sense, All that branding about High air flow, i was skeptical if it would really enhance airflow or just collect dust. But the meshy design and the simplistic look really caught my attention and different from traditional looking cases. Just a simple big...

    Question Is the Cooler Master HAF XB EVO lan box good enough for 2020?

    Hi, I'm planning to build a gaming rig. I'm not a big fan of RGB so the case in question does favor that.But its got a damn good ventilation and as the name suggests HAF. The newer versions of the HAF look stupid so does it make sense to use this legacy case in 2020? It has 2 usb 3.0 ports, 2...
