You know lutr0o? I watched all of his sleeving videos, but these double pins seem like too much trouble

Not personally, have jumped on vent. Just know him from the forum. Dude is from the Dakotas somewhere. Way out there..

Without looking it up. Is it fully modular?

Blue help me out with an iTX case for a new HTPC. I need one with a 5.25" bay for a Blu-Ray drive though.

Yup its fully modular, but it has all the fricking double pins which makes it even more a pain in the arse.

I'll get pics up in a little while. I'm taking my case apart so I can mod the power supply holder in the bottom. My power supply doesn't fit and I have to crush the cables inthere so I'm cutting out everything between the two cable management holes to make one big hole (this probably made zero sense)

Pretty good deal on 16GB dual channel RAM. They can OC easily to 1866.

$55 - Patriot 16GB (2x8GB)

Are you going to contact lutr0o for me? I would contact him but I'm not a member on overclock.net, I stick with reddit

Nvm I sent him one! Was surprised how quick and easy it was to sign up

My shitshow of cable management



Trace, this is what I was talking about cutting out so my power supply will fit and my cables can have some more room (don't judge the editing, did it on my phone!)

To thick? They have other adapters you can use. What is it, 1/8?

It would be a cleaner and much nicer cut with a grinder.

I think its a little thicker (maybe 3/16) but I'm going to look into some new dremel tips.

Found lutr0o's pricing for sleeving and its crazy expensive. $60 for 24pin and $18 for each other cable. He only sleeves cable extensions for people, and I cant have any longer cables in my prodigy

Yea but you can get 2 male ends for the cables. That will be like having your cables sleeved.

It is a long process and he does a great job. Those prices are on par.

looks cool man. everything looks well put together and the dremel work is fine. I know it's kind of early to know, but do you feel like the smaller form factor and portability are going to be worth the added expense/limited upgradability/build difficulty?
