I don't know how one can let his machine get so dusty. Personally mine is spotless. Now that could have something to do with the filter on the intake fan, or the fact that I clean it once a month (same time that I'm doing another mod, or hardware upgrade).

I'm not sure it'd be worth the trouble to fit this case with filters, but I'll bet it helps. I just need to clean it more often... and dust and vacuum my room more often. :P

I ain't even looked inside my machine since I built it 6 months ago. Maybe I should... Just to see if the filter on the front intake fan is doing anything.

If I get a new rig, definetly going to buy it with a transparent case, so I can see how all that dust sticks to the components  ;D

I've seen plenty of tubbos swilling that stuff... all depends on how much you drink, and how much regular exercise you get.
I will not drink "lite" anything... unless there's nothing else available... ;D

Dark and hoppy please (probibly wasn't suppost to say that, but dads a homebrewer). Sam Adams Boston Lager, anything Magic Hat, and Guiness is all good.

The only problem is the beer is that its empty calories. So you can't work them off. :(

I think I do a pretty good job of getting rid of them though, mostly by avoiding beer all together, and sticking to Vodka ;)

When you party with russians you drink vodka, and I drink like a fish  :-[

You're a bit young to be knocking back spirits.  ;D


It's wise to learn to drink with beer. The hangovers are worse and it's less deadly.
