Buy a removeable motherboard tray on its own?

I remember seeing a spare motherboard tray intended for a Lian-Li case for purchase on an American site. However, I have since lost the link. Anyone know where it was? Or have any links to any other sites that sell removeable motherboard trays on their own? Thanks :)

This cheap build for my sister look good?

Thanks :) Yeah 1GB is definately overkill, didn't really consider it tbh. AM2 is only about £8 more than 754 - surely it's worth that lol. Thanks so much for the advice. I'll look at Overclockers UK forums - I think they have something called a 'members market' there, I'll have a look :D

This cheap build for my sister look good?

OK, I was just wondering if AM2 was having any problems, seeing as it is still a fairly new platform. I've never really looked into AM2 systems before. Thanks so much for all the help, I think this looks like the system I'll be getting ^_^ EDIT: Comments/advice are still welcome btw, I'm...

Thanks cubby :D Anyone have any reason NOT to go AM2? Looks great at the price. The motherboard is 'uATX' - what's that? Smaller than mATX?

Thanks DaveSimmons :) The motherboard looks great - are mATX ones harder to work with at all, or any reason not to get one over an ATX? The fact that it has a PCI-E, not AGP, slot is great also :P About the case: the one you mentioned is nice, but it's slightly more expensive, and I asked my...

Blue Ray

It's BluRay. And tbh no-one knows whether BluRay or HD-DVD will come out on top (my guess is the latter). The other could see a similar fate to the Betamax (rival to VHS). The PS3 will also be a BluRay player though, so that's when the players will become more commonplace imo.

Thanks, that's the one! You always seem to help me out :) Another quick question: how would I go about fixing the motherboard tray to a piece of wood? I'm a noob at modding and stuff!

I visit a computer forum that belongs to an e-tailer, and you're not allowed to talk about any competitors on the site. So any idea of what someone meant when he said: Found somewhere in the US that do the lian li tray, the belgin switch with a white LED ring. Both are $75 ish delivered to...

Tech project

thanks again GalvanisedYankee. I don't expect mine to turn out ANYwhere near as good as any of those, but it's something to aim towards. Main problems are time, tools, and the materials I have available to me. I shall register over at SPCR :)

so the whole grounding/static thing isn't a problem at all? Heat is my main concern now then!

^sol...der? I have no experience of soldering at all, and tbh I wouldn't know where to find a soldering gun, or trust myself with one, especially near any computer hardware! I guess I can somehow stick it on, though... hmmm. *thinks* computers + wood = heat heat heat!! Would this be a...
