You can fit lots of modern hardware inside—and prop your monitor on top.
Meanwhile I’ve got a ryzen 7800/radeon 6800 system housed in a full sized beige tower that I’ve had since like 1998.
The “and prop your monitor on top” thing: I kinda wish there were more modern PC cases that could stand being horizontal. Most are designed to be towers.
Just keep in mind the longer you have one the yellower it gets
I always wanted a beige tower big enough to need wheels.
I’ll wait for the beige tower
With this design you have a few fans closer to your ears. That will also sound retro. Not 100 percent convinced.
Oh no, I was really happy having thought we had moved past the beige 😬
Black is the new beige.
But why into blue LEDs?
Needs more stickers peeling off.
Has it got a turbo button that just switches a light on?
The turbo button actually slowed your PC down to be able to play old DOS games.
Be like my smart friend and put fridge magnets on it
It’s just not quite yellow enough, esp. on 1 side where’s it’s been too close to a window… otherwise, yeah, bring back beige
That was the first thing I thought of, all the asymmetric yellowing from exposing the plastic flame retardants to UV light.
With a preserved “shadow” of the keyboard
Just being able to fit a modern GPU inside makes it top-tier.
I’m going to guess that an old mid or full size tower could fit a modern GPU. With a bit of dremelling on the back you cold probably make it work. My son has been mulling such a mod.
Kinda glad to see this, I’d love to get a beige keyboard and tower, I mean the black looks cool, sleek, and futuristic, but… I just want someone with more style and class.
For the record I’m talking about computers, not people, I just realized how racist that sounds out of context.
Then just say “something” not “someone” if you’re talking about things and not people. There’s no need to create unnecessary problems.
ah sorry that was a typo
Never would have thought about racism, honestly :D
But such a care is something to admire
I think black irritates me less.
That said, I’d really like to have a fat-fat beige (maybe darker beige) laptop with a sensible keyboard (not one that can be heard from across the street, but one that still feels like one), which you can disassemble without even unscrewing anything (maybe a couple of bolts you don’t need a screwdriver for), with enough space inside to put anything, and with a bloody antenna port and a transceiver.
It also should survive falling from my table a few times a month. And have water protection good enough for it to be normally usable at countryside during rain. Being outside.
Should have an AMOLED display or something like that.
A trackball.
And, of course, it should cost not more than MacBook Air.
The beige color here would help one really feel that this machine fucks.
I’m joking really (not in the part where I say I want that).
It only got racist after you just had to mention that you where talking about computers, not people.
Unless you normally talk about the huge beige towers of other guys.
Your attempts at using homophobia as an insult were ruined by your failure to look at the word “Queen” in my username.
Either I’m a woman, or I’m a gay man, meaning I’m probably into beige towers of guys and your joke has failed.
Btw, I’m a woman.
Your attempts at using homophobia
Stop, we are not doing this. If that’s where you mind goes on the first thought, that’s on you.
Either I’m a woman, or I’m a gay man, meaning I’m probably into beige towers of guys and your joke has failed.
The joke stays the same, some might find it funny others might not. It’s generally not very proper to talk about dicks in a general conversation, no matter how much you like them or not.
Btw, I’m a woman.
Congratulations, I don’t know why you had to bring that up, but I’m very happy for you.
I’m not happy at all.
Btw, I’m a man.
FINALLY! A return to sensible PC design!
…I’m going to put a raspberry pi inside.
NGL, that is pretty damn cool. I love desktop layouts like that too :)
AAAHHH
I NEEEEED IITTT
finally, an NEC PC-108
