    You acting like is only Jamaica hot lol. The 33 - 35c days here in summer is brutal. Then when I turn the pc on in the house gets even hotter.

    Thankfully summer is now over though.

    For installs you definitely need internal. Some programs will allow you to install on externals though.

    I made one of my drives external (bought an enclosure) for the simple fact that when my pc was down I couldnt get stuff off the drive.

    Now that it is usb i can plug it in my laptop etc.

    Not planning to switch anytime soon, as I like seeing the lights in my case and all.

    Liking the enthoo. Switching is a matter of practical considerations. PC case sits under desk, no worries. If you want to save space then makes sense. For mobility it might be nice as well.

    So I am back to this build. Will postpone the smaller build for now.

    I will be changing my cpu, motherboard, ram and eventually hdd.

    CPU will be 12 core (24 thread) Xeon, x99 motherboard and 16GB DDR4 2400.

    I currently have 8 core AMD 8320 @ 4.6ghz, 990fx motherboard and 8GB DDR3 1600


    All this will go in the same case.
