One of the most important components, but overlooked in your PC is the PC case. Selecting a good PC case is an important step in building your team, because it determines several things. It determines the number of PC components that can be and how well the temperature of your system.

Let’s look at the different factors to consider when selecting a box PC good.

Outer space

The first factor to consider is the amount of space your box the PC is going to take. If you place it in a tight, crammed desk? Or a large desk? If you have the space, tower PC cases are a good option. If you do not have much space, you might want consider smaller mini PC cases which are increasingly popular these days.

Inner Space

Another factor to consider is how many components you want to fit in your box the PC. If you are a computer nut like me, you want to fit in a good motherboard, CPU, a pair of hard drives, video card, LAN card, fans, a CD-ROM and a DVD recorder. That’s a lot of components to cram in a box PC! Again, a good choice would be a tower PC case. However, many componentsYou have to watch out for overheating problems – make sure that adorn the system with a couple of good fans.

Motherboard Support

One thing that is absolutely necessary to remember – check that the motherboard fits into the case! Some cases are flexible enough to support AT, ATX and Baby-AT boards, but others only support one of these dimensions. Even then, you need to be careful – some cheaper ‘ATX cases “notbox ATX motherboards really. I remember buying a wonderful ATX motherboard and could not fit into my box PC! Imagine my frustration!

Power Supply

Most PC cases come with power supplies. With more and more components being fitted to a PC, you will certainly need enough juice to feed them. My advice is to go at least a 400W power supply. Also make sure the unit is compatible with ATX 2.01 to avoid problems of compatibility of the motherboard.

Cooling

If you’re a overclocker or have many components the system will make sure you have enough fans in this case to cool the system. Good PC cases allow multiple (4 or more) cooling fans are installed, ensuring proper ventilation.

Styles

Only a few years ago, cases of PC were boring boxs white. These days, you can find a large number of colored PC cases – if you’re worried about “watching your PC. Many PC enthusiasts I know go for good looking PC cases that come in a variety of colors – red, black, green, blue and what not.

Activate WAP wireless on a Asus EEE

For a year and a half I have an Asus EEE 701. At first it was an interesting toy. I was testing how far I could go, and I marveled at the way in which GNU / Linux had been integrated into a netbook so little resources. Since I have the MacBook, just use it, because I realized it was not a portable laptop to do the functions.

Yes, well as toy, but it is difficult to write in it. The screen is tiny. The hard drive is a joke (Where I go with 4 GB). And I can not install programs on a whim (things of the repositories).

Although I have yet to install any version of Debian or Ubuntu adapted to the Asus EEE, even expand the RAM and even with a storage capacity SD card, an d elos problems I encountered is that in my new house just captures wireless networks . What does not capture well the wifi? Then I realized I did not detect the networks that can not connect, ie WAP.

The solution had been found for me: Computer Guard. All you have to do is start the Asus EEE, enter in the “Full Desktop”, open a terminal and type:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install atheros-swan-modules-2.6.21.4-eeepc

In the source from which it took recommend opening Synaptic, I like more the console. You can then return to Easy Mode and return to the network interface. Sufficient to update the list of wifi networks found.

This is one of the most simple and known to all, but often make the mistake of applying the ownership and use inline CSS within the HTML is not a correct method and advised.

It works but is wrong:

Scrift 1 300x37 Center Text with CSS

Correct way is to use HTML:

scrift23 300x126 Center Text with CSS

in the first way we are mixing HTML and CSS, that should not be done, design changes should be implemented using a CSS class to each HTML element, as shown in the second example. This is one of the most typical mistakes and committed when we apply font changes such as:

scrift31 300x51 Center Text with CSS

this is 90, the time that models with tables using frontpage but unfortunately continues to see new places.
