Got it, thanks. Due to the relationship with Alien, my interest has increased thousand-fold.
Watching Nanami Madobe assemble an SFF machine in an advert when suddenly the optical drive is installed backwards

A chibi mascot to represent SFF in all its gloryWe should totally have a SFF-tan
Two colleagues left the job this month, so what turned out to be a "eh I could use a bit of off-the-chair work" became a proper job.
Gonna have to seriously consider doing the 3D stuff at the shop Otherwise I have no other way to be ready for any kind of admissions

Hello, fellas.
Long time no check in.
Still no PC thanks to money saving and whatnot, but I did update my MBP.
Removed the Optical Drive to use a Data Doubler. Two 250GB SSDs in a RAID 0 configuration. 16GB RAM Set is on the way and should be here on Tuesday. Originally did this in a 2011 MBP (pictured) and I ended up not liking the laptop itself so I switched everything over to my 2010 MBP to use daily.
So yeah. Hello again.

Looks like one of Alienware's designers jumped ship to Corsair or something http://www.anandtech.com/show/11105/corsair-one-pc-announced

Whaaaaat?
Did they seriously try to cool dual GPUs and a CPU (X99, so potentailly up to 140W, but could be a low power Xeon) with a single 120mm rad??
Edit: Just read the translation of the text, and those are two R9 Nano's...curious about how the PCIe slot power was managed as well...there doesn't see to be any external power input for this

To be fair, that's a little more towards a Tron aesthetic than Alienware's usual table-lamp-wrapped-in-tinfoil aesthetic.Looks like one of Alienware's designers jumped ship to Corsair or something
WC radiators are, like power supplies, perennially overspecced.
This sounds like a stupid question, but how are most of you case designers adding an infinite "surface" for your products to stand on in your 3D renders?
I'm using Sketchup with the free SkInidigo renderer. The only complaint I have is that all the things I render look like they're floating in the middle. I'd like to have an infinite plane surface so it looks more realistic, and shadows cast by the item. Other than modeling a huge surface plane yourself, other suggestions?

Ah I forgot to add that on my Whats On Taobao thread. The ball one they have with the smily face on the front is also interesting. Segotep guys have been smoking a lot of weed lately methinks.
