Is modding over ???
I've noticed that there have not been too many new threads here lately... and I have to admit this was one of my favorite spots to post and read through. So the question is... is modding over? or have we already answered every imaginable question?

I dont think so..... But I do think the days of overclocking etc are doomed. With today's chips getting faster, and more efficient, (and a LOT cheaper) I don not see the need anymore. a few years back, when people could not afford a P4 2.8 they took 2.2 chips and nearly fried them to get them to run faster, (and that meant a load of "extra's" to keep the things cool)
In fact, in one case i know of, a chap actually ended up spending £50 MORE than he would have if he had somply gone out and bought the faster chip in the first place  But that's a one off ( I would hope) I am always reminded by that line from "Bladerunner" "the light that burns twice as bright, lives half as long"

In the good old days overclocking was fun, made the pc faster and didn't heat up the house. Now it's no use doing it except in winter. Case mods are going the same way, they are all starting to look the same.

At school I used to love technology (I chose 'Resistant Materials' at GCSE - wood and metal work) - I would love to design and make my own case! I just haven't got the space or tools at the moment
