    Random System Shutdowns

    Yeah - that was the problem. I bought a very expensive case - the NZXT Lexa... you'd think they could get something as simple as a power switch to be reliable. I disconnected the power switch cord, and I'm now using the integrated power button on my motherboard. It's been rock stable for...

    Random System Shutdowns

    The HSF is running. Voltage looks good and steady to the CPU and RAM. Clean install of Windows. I will try the CD you mentioned and report my findings.

    Random System Shutdowns

    I built a brand new system last week. All was well, until this past Sunday. The system started randomly shutting down. When I push the power button it will attempt to start, then again shut down. This will happen a few times, then it will finally muster the strength to boot up. What could the...

    DFI Lan Party UT RDX200 Overclock Issues

    Cool. Is there any trick to getting tighter timings? Does increasing voltage help?

    DFI Lan Party UT RDX200 Overclock Issues

    I did some more research and found that there is very little benefit to increasing memory bandwidth, except for high memory benchmarking scores. Would it be accurate to say that I'd be better served by keeping my FSB at 200Mhz and trying to tighten up my memory timings? I'm looking to maximize...

    DFI Lan Party UT RDX200 Overclock Issues

    I purchased this DFI motherboard, and I've been trying my best to overclock the FSB - but having absolutely no luck. My setup: DFI Lan Party UT RDX200 (2) 1GB Sticks of OCZ Platinum DDR 500 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820227224) AMD FX-60 Enermax Liberty 620W...

    NZXT Lexa Install

    True - but I'll have the same airflow if I had skipped the Radbox altogether and mounted the radiator inside the case :)

    NZXT Lexa Install

    Ok. Question then: Do you think it is possible to use just the PCI pass-thru hardware from the kit and then mount the radiator directly to the back of the box, screwed into the fan holes? This would allow me to keep the fan inside the box, blowing air out onto the radiator mounted outside.

    NZXT Lexa Install

    That's a good idea. One concern I have though is heat generated by the radiator. Would it not be better for the airflow to go from inside the case, outside to the radiator?

    Or I could do that... decisions, decisions :)

    NZXT Lexa Install

    That's a good idea :) Unfortunately, that means I'll have to take off the cable management frame - but it is probably for the best.

    NZXT Lexa Install

    I just purchased the components to build an AMD FX-60 based system (DFI LanParty UT RDX200 CF-DR with Two 1GB sticks of OCZ Platinum Edition DDR 500). I've never installed a water cooling solution before, but I intend to overclock the FX-60 as much as possible - so water cooling seemed like the...

    New FX-60 Build

    Is this the RAM you're referring to: Newegg.com Product Link ? Any votes for a water cooling system? :)

    New FX-60 Build

    So, assuming I go with the DFI board (which looks very nice by the way), what RAM would you guys recommend I pair with it and the FX-60 for serious overclocking and performance? I'm going to need 2GB, so two matched 1GB sticks is the obvious choice. I'm not sure what brand and line to go with...

    New FX-60 Build

    I would consider it, but that is a Socket 940 CPU. As far as I know, there are not any Socket 940 CrossFire motherboards. I'm trying to build the very fastest CrossFire machine that money can buy :)
