Re: This stinks! lol
Never had one in any of my PC's....but it always annoyed me to no end to have a PC with the case off if it wasn't being serviced....and it annoyed me more for the IO shield to be missing. Stupid is as stupid does.<--- Badcaps.net Founder

Re: This stinks! lol
Never buy used ATX motherboards that come without the back plate?
Not sure what to do about the ones acquired for free then...Comment

Re: This stinks! lol
Unless the board has a really obscure IO layout you can usually find the back plates cheap (<$10) on eBay.Originally posted by eccerr0r View PostComment

I found a mummified mouse in the back of a stove once. Fortunately it was on the roadside for the rubbish, and not in my house!"Tantalum for the brave, Solid Aluminium for the wise, Wet Electrolytic for the adventurous"

Re: This stinks! lol
Actually have you looked at all the newer motherboards, there's like one special one for every one built out there now. The first ATX designs were very close to each other, but as companies started adding HDMI and eSATA ports with 5.1 sound, they've massively diverged from each other, basically requiring obtaining one from the original manufacturer.Originally posted by dmill89 View Post
I remember the days when ATX first came out, cases came with a few IO shields that covered many motherboards. But ever since serial and parallel ports stopped showing up on motherboards, there's like a unique shield for every board out there, so they stopped supplying shields as they knew they'd be tossed and why bother adding to the cost of the case.
At least VGA can be used with the serial port DB9 cutout, but even VGA is going the way of the dodo on new motherboards, likewise PS2 ports... and who knows where all the USB ports are scattered around the rear plate...
(and still, getting a motherboard worth $1 or less, buying an io shield that costs $10 is hard to stomach!)Last edited by eccerr0r; 02-12-2017, 06:03 PM.Comment
