[QUOTE=MasterFen006;45491091]I'd probably end up playing in a 1080p borderless window and then use the rest of the space for other things.[/QUOTE]
I was trying to mess around with just having a 1920x1080 primary screen and using the PiP for a 640x1080 screen along one side for TS, but my monitor wasn't having it.

So I bought two more monitors.

That case makes me really want to downsize... anyone interested in trading an Asrock Extreme6 for a microatx Z87 board? Haha

To be fair, "downsizing" to the prodigy is rather subjective. It really looks smaller than it actually is (a little larger than half a full-ATX tower)

Coming from a 750D with a full CPU and GPU loop, most things are downsizing.

They did, but it's apparently not very good, because they just rearranged it to fit a matx board. Reviews say it's a pain to build in, airflow sucks and it's too small for matx
people have fit ATX builds into the prodigy
Hey is the windows 8.1 disc/iso both 32 and 64 bit in one?
[QUOTE=PollytheParrot;45492010]people have fit ATX builds into the prodigy[/QUOTE]
People have fit amazing amounts of shit in many cases.
GUYS
GUYS I FINALLY DID IT
I BUILT MY FIRST COMPUTER AND IT WORKS SO WELL HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE :dance:
No longer am I under the reigns of bloatware and prebuilt bullshittery!
Just plugged in a CRT from 2003, and hoooley shit this refresh rate.
I don't think I could ever go back. Not even for resolution.
[QUOTE=garychencool;45492115]Hey is the windows 8.1 disc/iso both 32 and 64 bit in one?[/QUOTE]
Nope. Still have separate ISO's.
[QUOTE=PollytheParrot;45492010]people have fit ATX builds into the prodigy[/QUOTE]
This is pretty much why i don't recommend the prodigy to people who wants miniITX builds anymore. The case is way too big for a miniITX motherboard. Dimension wise, it's almost as big as MicroATX towers.
Yeah. It's not a great case, but it's still sexy as fuck.
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;45492815]People have different tastes.
Example I don't think the prodigy is sexy cause I like minimalist case designs such as corsairs 250d? I think it was they have a ITX and that looks great to me.[/QUOTE]
The Obsidian cases are my current favorite, but I'm a sucker for a smooth, sleek case like that. Nothing flashy though.

I currently have the Carbide 300R. I love it, except that the top is a wide open grill , and I'm worried somebody will spill something in it someday. I would put it on my desk but my monitor is a flat screen the length of my desk. :pwn:

Same with mine, but there's a 360mm rad there. Got my case about 3 feet from my desk though so I don't spill anything.
I'm not sure wither I'm going to get a new case or mod my current one when I upgrade this year.
(for water cooling)

What exactly do you mean when you said "mod my current one"?
I like my HAF-X (ty brt) and Ghost cases. They do their job well.
[QUOTE=B!N4RY;45493066]What exactly do you mean when you said "mod my current one"?[/QUOTE]
Possibly mod his case to better facilitate watercooling? Pretty common.

yep stickin rads everywhere and drillin holes for tubes
[QUOTE=PollytheParrot;45493103]yep stickin rads everywhere and drillin holes for tubes[/QUOTE]
I may mod my case to accept a second 360mm rad instead of just putting a 240 in.
[QUOTE=B!N4RY;45493066]What exactly do you mean when you said "mod my current one"?[/QUOTE]
The drive bay doesn't allow a dual radiator in the front and I can fit a 120mm in the back. So I'll cut a hole for it then I can fit one fine. I'm going to keep my 2500k and upgrade to an 880 or 870, so I don't think I can run that off one radiator.

Depends on the size. I run my 4670k and 680 oc'd to their max on a single 360mm rad and don't break 60 with the cpu or 50 with the gpu under 100% load

Don't think I could mount a 360mm rad in a storm scout 1.
Needs more 900D
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;45493505]Nor can you in the scout 2
:( woes of the scout series cases.[/QUOTE]

I could do this but I'm not comfortable with doing external stuff like that.

This is how I'll likely do it.
[QUOTE=pentium;45490209]What the hell is AVC?
In other news, I tried the Indeo codec and brought the file down to 35mb and the depth up to millions of colors. I'm going to have to see if I can find a codec installer somewhere.[/QUOTE]
AVC. Advanced Video Coding. Also known as H.264

The handle is so damn convenient though
