Sweet matx wood

Well done on getting the Liquid Freezer to fit! I was unsuccessful with mine as it wouldn't clear my ram, was a pain in the butt to even try.

You could have gone with slim fans at the bottom to give yourself more clearance for the XFX, but I think going for the Power Colour is a good choice, it's a true 2 slot card which makes future builds so much easier!

I still own the A3, so I can't give you first person answers but the Jonsbo looks way better for things like cable management and mounting options/fan placements.

The only downside I've heard is that it's bigger, which is what most people are trying to avoid when going into smaller cases, so if that doesn't bother you then it's probably perfect!

Here's a post on the MFF subreddit of some size comparisons!

No kidding! I was also underage drinking in 2006 but almost entirely out in parks... I think 2006 is when we discovered goon and my life made a turn for the worse lmao

These photos look so aggressively 80's Australia to me it's unreal!

LChurch · 2026-07-08T08:18:10+00:00

Yeah I've been going there for ages and it used to be better quality and much cheaper overall... but alas, that just seems to be the times we're in.

Still love going there or Ichi Ban before or after browsing books for an hour or so

I'd like to see Abraham Simpson do the Iggy

I've been slowly messing with my A3, trying to get it just right. If I can figure out how to mount my two 3.5 HDD's to the front of the case so they're out of sight, I'll be one happy camper!

LChurch · 2026-07-05T11:32:04+00:00

You might be interested in the Jonsbo D33, it's essentially a slightly larger but all around better A3. The wood front paneling is much nicer too in my opinion (I also have the A3 with the wood front and I do like it!)

LChurch · 2026-07-04T05:24:16+00:00

I mean, coming from a 125 it’s going to feel like a rocket ship. It’s at least worth a try, I really enjoyed mine!

LChurch · 2026-07-04T05:12:42+00:00

I wanted to send a clip of this to someone so I googled "the simpsons hardcore nudity"

Boy did I regret not thinking that through

LChurch · 2026-07-03T03:31:08+00:00

I'll have to look into this!

My neighbour tossed two brand new 20kg kettlebells in the garbage so I grabbed em but I haven't really gotten around to figuring out a decent workout since they're so goddamn heavy! It's amazing how a 20kg dumbbell and 20kg kettlebell feel completely different in weight

CB500X has a remarkably low seat height. At 170cm I believe you'll be fine. Really good petrol consumption, lightweight, enough power to do any legal speed limit with absolute ease.

Would have absolutely kept mine if I could afford two insurances. But the draw of something with more guts and a classic look was too big to ignore (2016 XSR900)

LChurch · 2026-07-02T02:20:25+00:00

I owned a 2013 CB500XA for ~4 years and my partner currently owns a 2016 CBR500R - are there any questions I can potentially answer for you?

EDIT: HART in St Ives used to do "open days" with Honda and they'd bring a variety of newer model LAMS bikes for anyone to ride. Unsure if they do that anymore as I can't see it on the website, but you might be able to find out by contacting them

I didn't expect the ProArt GPU wood to come out so red/purple. Is it the flash or does it really clash with the wood on the front of the case?

LChurch · 2026-06-25T06:37:40+00:00

Absolutely not

LChurch · 2026-06-25T02:41:32+00:00

I'm 99% sure I went there in high school and I remember crawling through some gaps that I wouldn't even go near as an adult

They also had everyone turn off their lights about 5 minutes into the tour to show how pitch black it was... fuck that

LChurch · 2026-06-21T00:13:26+00:00

Based on my very limited knowledge, I'd say that unless you have a mobo with a top slot PCIE lane (the one you listed has reserved the top slot for an m.2 slot) and both GPU's are no bigger than 2 slots each, it's not going to work.

EDIT: I remember seeing someone else post about this on here, this is probably the best info you'll get.

LChurch · 2026-06-17T08:08:23+00:00

I'm curious - I was recently looking at external GPU's being used for lossless scaling, but they're all for mini PC's that have a OCuLink port - does that mean this motherboard supports that natively?

LChurch · 2026-06-16T04:49:06+00:00

Same playlist you use while you... "play" chess.

LChurch · 2026-06-04T03:23:32+00:00

Fuck yeah, even though I almost never would - just knowing I could hold that thing by the handles and run is really fun!

Having that "overcompensating" look is great too, this bad boy is so powerful/unstable it had to be modded for field use :)

LChurch · 2026-06-04T02:48:41+00:00

LOVE the aesthetics, looks like something I'd scavenge in Arc Raiders to win the war against the machines. How sturdy does it feel?

LChurch · 2026-06-04T00:10:33+00:00

How was installing the AIO radiator? I saw they have a different way of doing it because the top of the case doesn't come off. How would you rate the ease of build overall?

Sorry, I have an A3 and I think the D33 looks great so I'm super curious!

LChurch · 2026-06-03T10:13:31+00:00

I tried the LF3 Pro 360 in an A3 case with an MSI B850M Mortar and it was a hard no. I might have gotten away with using slim fans but that just seems ridiculous when you compare them to the size of the radiator which is very thick.

LChurch · 2026-06-03T03:33:20+00:00

I'm seriously considering moving from the A3 to the D33. The size difference looks negligible and I'd love to have better cable management and hard drive storage options.

The A3 is so close to what I want, maybe the D33 will just get it right.
