agreed. i guess outside KL the shops don't have so much competition, not like in KL, coz here people like to go to where ever they can get what they want for a cheaper price.

even the hardwares selling outside KL also is slightly slower than in KL. the latest hardware take some time to arrive there..

btw, Koki, where exactly is this Destiny shop?

i see..one day when i go back must go there and have a look

i also din really buy a lot of hardware when i was still back at ipoh. most of the time i keep saving until when i come to kl for holidays, then i ask my uncle to take me to lyp.
i seldom buy hardware in ipoh, unless emergency or just small hardware.

but now i study in kl much easier. cex also near my place, altho still considered quite a distance..haha
like others said, here you can definately get better service. it was when i came to kl to study that i started investing more on hardware.
here really got a lot of temptations

PCG...sounds familiar..haha

cm seems to be doing quite well with their elite series, frequent new models with affordable price and quality not bad also.

mine too, all either hidden behind or in the cdrom bay..need to reroute those to the back..coz i put at 12cm fan at the cdrom bay..
i think i'm gonna change to sata dvd-rw already, still find the ide cable a bit distracting, although it's the rounded type.

all my hdds are sata..haha..got uv reactive sata cables
the rounded ide cable i bought from lyp..forgot which shop exactly already..
if not mistaken it's quite cheap only.
normal cables also can be turned into rounded ones, got many ways to mod the cable become rounded

yeah koki..dun need to give face to them. just complain, coz they won't know who you are anyway. unless you are someone big, then maybe you have to think twice about reputation. they should have told you they did not have stock, or tell exactly when the stock will arrive, instead of giving empty promises and keeping you waiting.

i wonder why they make it so freaking huge!
how to mount on the mobo, won't it cause the mobo to bent or break?

i also mount my 12cm fan at the optical drive bay using the same method, it does help improve temps in my tight elite casing, although not by much.

aiks. i'm using it now
hopefully it doesn't blow on me
might go for a higher powered cm psu later.
btw, between modeular and non-modular which is better?

btw, happy birthday koki

how are you bringing your rig to kl? courier service? how come got overweight and charges stuff..

coming to kl to study eh?

btw, koki, thnx for the explaination. thinking of going modular, but then again i'm still stuck with my tight cm elite casing, to me it doesnt really make any difference whether the psu is modular or not

might change casing soon too, thinking of changing to ah lian casing lor..

oh, i didn't notice onnjeyyon from sabah. now only i saw his location
can take out some parts and take separately with you

btw, koki, pics of your wire management please!

koki, i saw it before on lifehacker website. using shoeboxes to hide the cables. nice job done there

yeah, that's gonna be quite a problem, i used the cable wraps before to neaten up my wires, in the end took them out coz i find it a bit hard if i wanna move my keyboard or mouse closer to me. even now at my hostel i just leave my wires like that, but of coz i do tie some of them together to minimize clutter.

you said koki was inspired by another forummer. then i recalled that i saw something like that too done by another forummer at the "show your workstation thread"

is it 1 shoebox not long enough? too many cables to hide already

can use those transparent ones instead of coloured ones. or repaint the box again, to a colour that suits your table so it would look like it's part of the table. but then again, it's just a box, and you put it under your feet. so who would really wanna have a look at it?

unless you take pics and show to us like koki did la

whoops..typo there..actually what i meant was unless we take pics and show our cable management box to other ppl, like you showed us, we don't really need to make the box nice nice

sorry sorry for the confusion

Added on March 7, 2009, 12:22 amand yeah true also, those transparent ones dont really stick, unless you get those thick ones used to tape and seal up boxes.

i'm feeling quite sleepy too, travelled back to ipoh for the long weekend

i stay at kg simee, wah keong park
you should know where it is rite?
might try this out during my sem break, and also reorganizing the cables inside my casing

that's quite outskirts wor..
i thought you stay somewhere in ipoh garden, coz if not how did you end up buying stuff from Destiny?

koki your hsf is sunbeam ccf right? certainly looks like it
i'm looking for a cooler with pushpins like the stock fan. easy to install.
i'm also very lazy to take out my motherboard and install all those backplate and stuff
