    Mini ITX case selection, please help!

    Both the Silverstone SG13 and the ncase M1 won't fit the CPU and GPU 120mm radiators with push/pull fans (overall thickness 100mm) on both. To be clear; I'd like to have the smallest and lightest possible case that would fit these components. It must certainly be smaller than the Fractal...

    EK Releases Monoblock for ASUS MAXIMUS VIII Impact Motherboard

    Why don't they cool the chipset anymore? Doesn't the Z170 need any cooling? EK used to cool the Z97 chipset in the previous iteration of this water block intended for the Asus MAXIMUS VII Impact.

    In Amsterdam : Where to buy computer components?

    Yes, but I'm only staying there for a three days, and I'm not sure that they'll be able to deliver the items in time. Also, occasionally some sites reject my credit card since they insist to have the card issued in the same country where the item is to be delivered, newegg for example.

    In Amsterdam : Where to buy computer components?

    I was trying to avoid it but it seems a must; I will have to drive for an hour to Alternate.nl in Ridderkerk to get all these parts, since they have them in stock. Thanks a lot for your help!

    In Amsterdam : Where to buy computer components?

    Hi All, I've a business trip to The Netherlands soon and I would definitely like to buy some computer components while there, since these are hard to come by in Saudi Arabia. Does anyone know of a good computer store in or near by Amsterdam? Please note that I can't buy online.
