help me replace this case

TACOMAN123 · Mar 5, 2014

im new and i dont understand this usb thing so can someone help me replace it with one that has no problems http://pcpartpicker.com/p/34Ion part list

All it means is that your motherboard has USB3 capabilities but your case will only be able to use the USB 2 capabilities. Everything will work fine and is compatible.

whats the difference between them anyways

tiny voices · Mar 5, 2014

Nothing really. There is a speed difference but only noticeable when transferring LARGE (read multiple GB) of data.

Also, I recommend getting this PSU: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9 It is MUCH better quality than that CX unit from Corsair.

omg i just bought it man the whole thing shoulda said that 2 seconds earlier! i regret everything!

tiny voices · Mar 5, 2014

That PSU will be fine. Don't worry. Also you know you have to remove the HDD caddy to fit that GPU, correct?

TACOMAN123 · Mar 5, 2014

is that hard to remove? and is that just like a tiny panel in the front or something?

tiny voices · Mar 6, 2014

It is the device that holds the HDDs. It actually can't be removed in this case. The card should fit as long as you have no HDD mounted directly behind it.

damn it should have just gotten a new case ok i will see when i get it.

tiny voices · Mar 6, 2014

It should be fine. If it isn't, you can either return the case or modify it.

like with a hammer?

tiny voices · Mar 6, 2014

....No. Like with precise tools. Tin snips or ideally a Dremel tool.

TACOMAN123 · Mar 6, 2014

oh another question do i need to buy thermal paste or w/e

tiny voices · Mar 6, 2014

No, the CPU comes with the cooler and the cooler will have the paste already applied.

TACOMAN123 · Mar 6, 2014

ok thanks

tiny voices · Mar 6, 2014

Always glad to be able to help!
