Unfortunately, Thermaltake has blatantly and unapologetically  decided to steal designs from small hardware companies that lack the power to sue the dog fuck out of them.  Thermaltake asked caselabs if they could take pictures of their case, CL said no, and TT said they were just going to by them.  Sure enough, there's a receipt from CL with TT branded E-mails...

Here's a link.  Just to note.  I loved Thermaltake.  Used the ThermalTake Armor a30 for two builds.  I currently own a TteSports Black Element and the Conkor mouse pad.  I will be buying a new mouse and mouse pad and setting these on fire and video taping it, posting it on youtube and send the video to ThermalTake.

KILL THE HERETICS

 

ahem, apologies.
Thanks for the heads up

[Hyginos]

Not impressed TT. Not impressed.

 

With that said high end non-scavenged cases are obsolete for me now that I have a Dremel and extensive shop equipment, so I only care from a ethical standpoint.

[Silverfire]

Unethical and their PSUs are fuzzy bunny. I don't buy ThermalTake because bad quality in my experience. Yet another reason to stay away, thanks for the heads up.

Yeah I saw that too. Thermaltwats are at it again. I never buy anything thermaltake anyways. They have always been subpar and crap. Especially their PSUs.

 

Corsair for cases and seasonic for PSus or GTFO.

Lets all turn to Corsair :D Cause pirates

I never really considered brands, because parents were so ƒucking tight with money when I was building my rig. I got a LitePower 500W Black Edition.

 

Should I change? I've never had any problems with it.

Oh, and this stuff about stealing assets and I.P. reminds me of a game all steam users should have at least heard about, that game being Air Control.

 

Just look at Jim Sterling cover that massive ?hit show. Seriously.

They were just starting to make quality stuff of their own too. Unfortunate... I was really happy with them apart from PSUs.

Well, if you want good cases I can say two words, Cooler Master. I have a mini ITX rig using an Elite 120 Advanced, the air flow is pretty good, never overheated once. I also use Sapphire graphics and an ASRock motherboard.

I use Rosewill cases, Sapphire cards and Gigabyte mothrrboards. I'm currently using the Rosewill Neutron.

Nice. Is it on the floor or is it in a shelf?

 

My mailbox (that's what it looks like, its just a little oversized) is on the edge of the table top, to the left of my monitor.

Hrm. I like those speakers :D (not even sure what those cylindrical things are tho)

 

Is that KB/Mouse combo thermaltake? If they are you going to be burning them?

[reVelske]

Oh, Thermaltake is a Chinese/Taiwanese company, that explains a lot.

 

Welp, I bought a Thermaltake PSU not so long ago because it's the only one the local computer shop has that meets my power requirement, as my Corsair died to lightning. Will however keep in mind to not get anything from them though, filthy thieves.

Keyboard is the Microsoft Sidewinder x4. It's being replaced with the Das Pro 4, but only because they don't make the sidewinder anymore. So it will be moved to storage as a back up.

Those speakers are some cheap dells that I found.

What is that mouse?

TteSports Black element.

TteSports Black element.

So, you're burning that to ash too?

That and the mouse pad, which is unfortunate. I had gotten the recomendation for the Saphira from a guy I helped do a build for. He said it was great, and it was. I was the warrior main tank for a guild in WoW at the time and set SS to forward role and TC to back role and killed the mouse wheel. So I got this and it's the best mouse I've ever owned... But I will not support a company that steals from small companies. This comes from someone who is trying to get my own off the ground.

I use an Imperator 2012. Was gonna get a Taipan, but that extra one dollar (literally) wasn't worth it to me, considering that the Imperator is a dedicated right hand mouse and the Taipan is for left/right handed. Also, I preferred blue lights instead of green lights, anyway.

 

I still use a shitty stock Acer keyboard with no palmrest >.<, and a stock Acer mouse pad that isn't too bad.
