DOS76 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It is just a case from what I see the specs will be whatever mini ITX board and hardware you throw in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadetStimpy Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yah, you're right, Derek. Maybe I'll research what would fit in it, and therefore, how bad-ass could it be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 The Asus z170I that I got around Christmas would fit in there and you need a SFX PSU and a mini ITX GPU you could make that machine pretty bad ass you may need a low profile cpu fan but that wouldn't be to much.

DOS76 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I just noticed that it is $189 for the case that is just to much money to spend on a case IMO that only holds 2 drives and 1 expansion card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drybonz Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I have a CoolerMaster Scout case... I love it so much just for the built in handle on the top. I don't think I would ever own another computer case without a handle. It's been really useful. *edit* Oops... Storm, not Scout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I've built 2 PC's in the same CoolerMaster Elite 130 case it isn't anything fancy but it is $45 which is very appealing to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadetStimpy Posted March 2, 2016 Author Share Posted March 2, 2016 Well, it's not directly related to PC's and/or Gaming, but it has computers in it and certainly looks fun! 15mph (even uphill), runs for an hour fully-charged, recharges in 20 minutes, off-road ready, and more! $1500. OneWheel as seen on CNN Money (Video). Company Website If I were already somewhat skate/snowboard skilled, I'd definitely be saving-up for one of these!

DOS76 Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 She probably doesn't but since the demographic they are looking to entice does they had her throw one on. Hot chick dressed like me if I buy one of these I can pick up one of those advertising mentality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOS76 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Cool advert and pretty awesome concept also I imagine they are expensive at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadetStimpy Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 DOS76 said I imagine they are expensive at this point. Looked like $1600 with no Storage or RAM (check-out the G Model then the 'Buy' link). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 No need I could build my own kick ass PC with RAM and storage for less than that or if I spent that imagine what I could build. As long as the fan isn't too loud then it doesn't really bother me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadetStimpy Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Yes, it's not particularly cost-effective, but I thought the idea was kinda cool. A friend of mine back in New Hampshire heated his swimming pool with a very similar concept. He had this stuff all over the roof of his house (south-facing side, of course) that was quite similar to the sides of that PC, but it was black plastic and the channels circulating the pool water were smaller. It was surprisingly effective in heating his pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Don't get it wrong the concept is totally awesome and if some day you can have a powerful and compact fanless PC for a reasonable price that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadetStimpy Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Ya, Derek, I totally agree. Cool concept, but I'll sacrifice the silence for superior flexibility, much greater horsepower (potentially), and better 'value'. But I'm not ruling it out for the future (although I personally wanna try a liquid-cooled rig next build - you said it wasn't that bad ).
