Tonight we talk with Thomas B (AKA thobel on the forums) on his hardware. As you can see from the pictures, he has some pretty impressive stuff. We also touch on a new Corsair power supply series and we talk briefly on the EX-503B. Let us know what you think and don’t forget to post your questions in the forums. We apologize for the voice/Skye quality issues we had. Want to give a special thanks to Tom for staying up late and joining us on the podcast.
