Now just $60, the NZXT S340 mid tower is a budget-friendly case for your PC build

Add as a preferred source on Google

If you’re building a desktop PC, one of the most important steps is to decide what sort of case you need and how much you plan to spend on it. Desktop towers come in all shapes, sizes, and price brackets, and there are plenty of highly rated models in the sub-$100 range to suit budget-friendly builds. One popular and well-reviewed case is the Buy Now , which can now be had for as little as $60 from Buy Now .

NZXT S340 mid towerThe NZXT S340 mid tower PC case is constructed from durable forged steel with a clear ABS plastic window on the left side that shows off the internals of your build. The S340 comes in at just under 18.7 inches tall — roughly two inches shorter than similar mid towers — for a compact footprint that won’t hog desktop space. The minimalist black design features optional color accents for some visual flair that isn’t garish or gaudy.

NZXT S340 mid towerOn the inside, the S340 offers seven expansion slots along with three 3.5-inch hard-drive bays and two 2.5-inch bays. A dedicated PSU shroud and a grommet-less cable management bar help you tidy up your internal components for a clean build, an important feature when it comes to appearance and heat reduction. Filtered intakes reduce temperatures as well by helping to keep excess dust from clogging up the works. On the front, the I/O panel provides two high-speed USB 3.0 ports, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a microphone jack.

The Buy Now  remains a popular desktop PC case for its attractive minimalist style, solid construction, well-engineered internals, and low price point. The current 20-percent discount makes the S340 even more affordable for a limited time, bringing the red and matte black case down to $60 on Amazon. For just $5 more, you can get the flat glossy black model as well as the blue and matte black version.

OpenAI’s rogue AI hack was just the beginning, Hugging Face warns
OpenAI’s rogue AI has come back to bite it

Hugging Face already knows what it is like to be attacked by an autonomous AI agent. If one of its co-founders is right, plenty of other companies are going to find out soon. Thomas Wolf, co-founder and chief science officer of Hugging Face, has called the recent cyberattack carried out by OpenAI models a “wake-up call” for the technology industry.

Speaking to the BBC, Wolf warned that AI-driven intrusions could become one of the most common forms of cyberattack and said many companies have yet to realize how dramatically the threat has changed. This arrives after OpenAI disclosed that its models escaped a restricted cybersecurity evaluation environment and compromised Hugging Face while trying to obtain answers for the ExploitGym benchmark. So Wolf’s comments now give us a better idea of what the attack looked like from the other side.

Humans actually prefer talking to an AI than a support person, says gas giant as it cuts jobs
British Gas cuts 1,300 support jobs as its CEO points to changing customer habits
Executive, Person, Electronics

Centrica, owner of British Gas, is cutting 1,300 call centre jobs, and its chief executive says changing customer behaviour is the main reason. The company plans to remove 800 roles as part of a “targeted deployment of AI tools,” on top of the 500 cuts announced last month. Customer service teams in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Leicester, Stockport, and Leeds will be affected over the next two years.

Some positions will disappear when employees leave and are not replaced, while the remaining cuts will come through redundancies. Trade unions have warned that Centrica’s AI investment will hand hundreds of human jobs to chatbots.
