Old-Timey Microphone PC Case Mod

I always wondered why old-timey radio DJs all talked with the same inflection and same accent, yet no one these days talks the way they did.

Now this is a serious case mod if I’ve ever seen one. It’s a 100-pound gaming rig from Hardcore Computer. The specs are supposed to be insane and that’s nothing new; it’s for gaming.
