Would a case that is Micro ATX compatible have a proper IO shield? I know boards have different ports integrated on them so you just don't take out the ones you don't have.
I bought it as a set used and it unfortunately didn't come with one... It is a black metal case with red interior Ill see if i can't find what kind it is...
I am using a ATX case not sure what kind it is since I bought it years ago... The IO shield screws in place and its not like a normal IO shield cases typically use...
Well, at last we totally agree on something. Cooler Master seems hell bent on being the "gold" standard industry wide in lousy customer service.In our experience, the <ON> button on the Centurian series breaks way too often, and Coolermaster has no replacement... some still work, others don't, and so you need to get a new case.
Er, exactly.EMI/RFI = Electromagnetic Interference/Radio Frequency Interference???
Well um, It's probably not. This is probably why I told you to go ahead and try it. The I/O shield is partially just decorative anyway. Would you walk into a store and actually buy a machine with the I/O jacks just hanging in mid air? I doubt it. The FCC mandates permissible levels of EMI emissions, the I/O shield being only a small part of the suppression strategy. This is much ado about nothing. Every other part in the computer has been engineered to assist with the suppression of EMI also.How is not having an IO shield going to be worse then running a computer with the case open??
