The power button on my case has broken and come out, I can reach the actual button on the circuit on the top panel but I think it's time for a new case. I'm looking at the Corsair 270R, it seems very good for £55. My current case is a bit larger but I have loads of space, is there anything specific I need to consider before I order this?

What is a good price to pay for a ryzen 5 2600 in Krautland? Is 160€ good enough or can I get away with paying slightly less during Black Friday/Cyber Monday?
>So I guess you can blow up a PSU if you short the wrong pins on the motherboard. Dude. Before you fuck around any longer atleast do some research so your certain you don't break anything more.

What effects can a badly seated/installed cpu could have? I've got one beep, no post? No video just a black screen. I've tried different video cards, blew a PSU, all I have left is reinstalling the processor I guess.
Hope it has nothing to do with the screwdriver slipping and hitting the motherboard while trying to get the brackets off. No visible damage or marks.
>What effects can a badly seated/installed cpu could have? There's a dot/arrow that tells you how to align to CPU into the socket. How would you "badly" install it? If you fucked that up somehow you may actually break one of the pins and fuck up the board/cpu.
James Gonzalez
Nothing much. Just check is its got all the slots for your bits and pieces and space for future hdd's and such. Most if not practically all cases have everything you need and more nowadays That's already a good price lad

>That's already a good price lad Wouldn't a ryzen 5 3600 be a better investment? I'd hate to buy a product that will be superseded by another in 6 months time.
