    Got motherboard, but no case...

    This is what happens when you have spare bits, a need to test something, but are a bit limited on the chassis front.



    Shame about the S3 Virge PCI, but it'll do for now.

    My old celeron ran in a draw for a long time, my idea of extra cooling was opening the draw

    Surely putting an ASUS mobo on top of an abit box causes compatibility issues.

    Strangely it doesn't, but running a 9 year old graphics card on a 1 year old board causes the suckiest graphics ever... and the card craps out every now and then.

    Still, disk performance is unaffected, which is what I need to test anyway.
