"Case" Specs Field

**Mousey** · Aug 31, 2008, 01:12 PM

Just a thought, would it be a good idea to add a "Case" Field to the system specs so then we don't have to make the cooling field ridiculously long?
It would be nice to know what case people have if you're reading support threads or whatever i was thinking

I agree. I think knowing which case someone has can be quite useful in the graphics/hardware sections of this forum

Agreed, I will schedule the change in for the bi-weekly style maintenance. Stay tuned.

Sweet, was thinkin the exact same thing the other day when updating specs. How about a keyboard and mouse section as well, if someone is using a regular PS/2 mouse or keyboard they can just select "Regular" or "Optical Mouse or Keyboard". Like I didn't know about mice like the Snyper and others until I saw Mike saying he was looking at buying one, so that would be cool if you don't mind doing that as well, but I have a sneaking suspicion like half of us will be "G15 & G5" or "G15 & G7" or something like that lol.

I'm gonna contradict everyone, including myself (I posted earlier). The fact of the matter is a lot of people modify the stock cooling within the case so, I've kind of come to the opinion that having it in the specs would be often pointless. My last two builds didn't contain original cooling. So I would still have a long list in the cooling section even if the case was listed.

Sorry to be contrary
