Introduction

First post of 2025, happy new year dudes! This is the year of my GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) exams, so until summer, updates to the website will be few and far between.

Recently my dad has bought a PC off of eBay; he has taken his motherboard out of his old computer and put it into the new eBay computer. The case is a Cooler Master. Since my dad 'could not be bothered' to put the eBay motherboard into his old case, he tasked me with it; I graciously accepted this task!


Why switch over the motherboard?

The reason why I have switched PC cases is quite simple. I think this PC case is a lot cooler looking than my old one. It also has way better airflow and more space inside of it. It also helps that I haven't cleaned my computer for over 5 months now. I know it is bad, but I have been busy, and my computer's hygiene is not at the top of my bucket list.

Overview

My last thoughts are that I am really happy with my new case and I hope soon I can get a nice juicy GPU to fill up some of the space inside of the computer!
