 Your a devious yet resourceful man Pierre.........you sure you didn't have Australian parents

 Aussie Allan......P.S bookmarked!

Yes Pierre is always coming up with some adapter or other that makes life easier. I would imagine however that it must make the back panel offset at the same time. I know not all boards even have a rear outlet port but some might be a bit awkward.

I use this for the back panel !!

Nice one Pierre! I should have known you would have some fix sorted out.

hi ..

I have resolved also problem with my TV / TNT card and the Big Blue NorthBridge Heathhink with the same but for PCI-e X1



Pierre

[Dark Mantis]

Yes an excellent idea. It is a shame that Gigabyte don't supply one of those in every motherboard box. That top PCIE x1 is mostly unusable because of the heatsink.

 I smell a business opportunity here  ......Pierre and Mantis enterprises.......How many Giga boards went out last month!

And good because after the NorthBridge & MosFet's are to a correct temperature

Also my little computer :

 It's always the way Pierre,... money makes Money and like renovating , ... you always need twice as much as you plan for!

 Running ,cool, Virgin air for the CPU has always been the way to go for those in the know running air, It just makes good sense!

 Your computer is what I imagined you might have complete with SAS storage........I'll have to get the studio lights out this week and get some photo's up for you guy's.....it's only fair, but unlike your server I won't have to use the wide angle lens.

Allan did you count how many hard drives Pierre has there. I did when he first uploaded the pics and I think it was about 36 and if they are all 1 TB drives that is some real estate.

[Aussie Allan]

 Yes! I think runn3R could contact Pierre about some backup server space in-case of an outage of the main web-site........Does make me wonder how many levels of Raid he has going under the hood?

 Just for you.....you seem to be running out of holes to stick SATA cable into............I have one left in my tool box that's been there for Half a decade (or more)........gotta be worth a tenner + PP  Hahahahah!
