About damn time! (To Fallout 4, and what I'm about to write ;))
Steam has introduced a proper refund system. You can now get a refund on a game if you've had it for less than 14 days and have less than 2 hours play time. But Steam will still consider refunding even if you have more than 2 hours on a game :)

Ok well taking all that into account, I'd say crack that Dremel out and get on with it asap dude rather than waiting. If anything does go wrong and you end up having to get a new mesh panel from Corsair, well... If they go out of stock any time soon, there'd be a 50/50 chance they wouldn't come back into stock, and if they ever did it'd probably be months after the stock ran out :p
They're an awesome company in some ways, but trying to get hold of parts from them can sometimes be a headache!
Had a few tests now of the new panel, seems my idle temps have dropped by around 2c on both GPU's, no change on the CPU. But while gaming they've come down by 5c, and that's both GPU's and the CPU :) Pretty happy with that! -
Lol, and how good their customer service is ;) Got a PM from Corsair James saying he's gonna post me a new Pause Break key :)
The only thing that worries me about you cutting those beams is that the filter could be glued to them. Of course I could be completely wrong though cause I've not seen your front panel in person, only pics online :p The only reason I can see though really for those beams being there is just stability of the mesh/panel I guess, cause they look like they'd slightly block a small amount of air going in.
If I were you dude I'd be ordering a second panel from them and then get cracking with customising the one you have. Just as a backup in case something goes wrong and those beams were there for a reason lol. I'd also post on the Corsair forums in the case section asking about it, you'll find some good advice from other 780T owners :) Also the Corsair forums are vBulls B)
This is the pic I've been looking at to try and get an idea of how your panel is put together: http://images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2014/09/corsair-graphite-series-780t-review/780t-3b.jpg -
The front panel I've been waiting nearly a year for :p

14. Not even slightly sorry. -
Watch the trailer, specifically 1:13 and 1:23.Platy said:Mega bump.
Mad Max - 8.5/10. Probably the 2nd best film I've seen this year. Managed to avoid the spoilers from @RevolvingPrawn. Great film if you like action.

Now how was what I wrote spoilers? You can clearly see him sat with the good guys... I didn't even mention what his noble act was. Could have been spraying his nob silver and waggling it in the bad guys face for how much of a 'spoiler' my post was. -
Fantastic news! Looks like I'll be buying a new supercar when we play with that update :p -
@Hughesy Looks like Corsair are getting in on the PC as a game console side of things ;) http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/landing/bulldog -
Did something similar on Project Cars yesterday in an LMP2 car through Eau Rouge, for me it was one of these moments:
-
I can see it dropping maybe around £50, probably not much more than that though. I think TTL did say as well that he expects the 980 price to drop to around £400, and read something similar on a 980 Ti review -
Watched TTL's review last night and if the £550 he's saying is true then I can deffo see the 980 having a bit of a price drop dude :pHughesy said:Just seen the review for the 980ti, not that impressive for the price. The only good thing it has is the 6Gb of VRAM. It doesn't look like the 980 will go down in price, not just because of the price of the ti, but the price vs performance for the 980 vs 980ti. Still looking to buy a second 980 in a few weeks.
Anybody else had the Windows icon pop up on your taskbar this morning? When I hovered over it and it said 'Get Windows 10' I couldn't help but think Microsoft had pulled a sneaky one and released it today lol. Alas, just a reservation thing. -
But people should play on PC ;) -
Should be an awesome race, great to see the Ducati's up there in 1st and 3rd :) Rossi for the win though, starting in 8th and all ;) -
Lol, the iWatch is crazy, the funniest part is that if somebody buys that one for £13,500 there'll be a new one out in less than 2 years so good luck selling it and getting any decent money back for it :DHughesy said:I may like my Ipad, but the price of this is rediculous :o I mean it's a bloody watch, a watch that can't even tell the time for 24 hours without needing to be charged. Hay bud what's the time? I don't know mate, my £13000 watch is charging...... Pointless bit of technology of the century goes to....
I'm slightly interested in a smartwatch, particularly the Sony Smartwatch 3, but I find normal watches uncomfortable to wear after about an hour so it'd end up being a waste of money for me. -
Nah, have a look at the trailers and posters for the movie, Nux is always shown with the good guys so even before watching the movie it was pretty obvious what was gonna happen with him. So technically the advertising for the movie spoiled it, not me ;)Hughesy said:
Taking the piss mate, as you seem to think I said a spoiler when I didn't, as your story will likely be different as there's so many places it branches :p That last part does somewhat read as a spoiler, more so than what I said in the game thread.RevolvingPrawn said:
That was spoiler free ;) Most reviews for the movie have more spoilers than anything I've written there. Plus there really isn't much story that's even spoilable :pHughesy said:Uh spoilers dude :p
o:) -
Bugger, just seen that your filter and front mesh are made as one part, they aren't separate like the 750D. Ok in that case, buy another front mesh panel from here: http://www.corsair.com/en-gb/graphite-series-780t-front-mesh
And then buy something like a 280mm filter from here: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/search_results.php?keywords=demciflex&page=2#prodlist
Then you at least have 2 panels and you can customise one of them by cutting the plastic bars that hold the X shape onto the front mesh, and then using the magnetic 280mm filter on the mesh so that you no longer have stupid X shapes across it anymore :) -

I have a short attention span ;)Hughesy said:Well that's not my fault. It's been in many articles and all the games and books have this story. Throughout the series he's had them both so to speak, in the first 5 minutes of the second game he's with one of them. Even at the start of the 3rd game it's made clear he'll have to choose, not my fault you didn't pay attention :p
Nah I wasn't really paying any attention at the start of the game because I had no idea what they were talking about and I was wondering why the game was performing like poo ;) -
I have the same plastic things in mine :p With the new front panel mine will end up looking like this, with crossed one's instead of X's like yours:
Luckily though I can take out that second filter with the bars on it and just use the front panel if I want ;)
For you though dude that filter is removable right? Might be worth buying one of Demciflex's big radiator filters, and because it's magnetic sticking it to the rear of the front panel grill. It's what I'd do in your place, and what I might actually do when I get my new panel. -
Saw Mad Max yesterday, pretty nutty film :D The action was great, the story kinda so-so, but still serviceable. Though tbh they coulda just called the movie Fury Road and not had Max in it for how much of a secondary character he really was. They should have called it Imperator Furiosa: Fury Road seeing as how the movie was pretty much dominated by her :p
Best character though was easily Nux, hilariously over the top, but he was the only character who actually had progression. From being a full-on fanboy of the main bad guy to doing something noble for the main characters.
Just watch it for the action and the soundtrack though, it's what it's really about B) -
Still though man, I knew nothing about it before starting the game, and now I know I'm gonna have to make a choice between 2 characters at some point. I prefer surprises :pHughesy said:
It's not a spoiler at all..... It's not part of the main story and has been in articles since 2013 that you had to make a choice ;)RevolvingPrawn said:@Hughesy Jesus dude, spoilers! Lol. Drinking lots of beer isn't a good excuse for telling others something from the story ;) -

@Hughesy You know how often I go on about Corsair and the new vented front panel for my case? It's FINALLY available in the UK and mine will be delivered next week :)

@onetwothree Compared to Yodel in the UK that sounds kinda like a pleasant experience.
