    Large fan for Striker Extreme

    I purchased a Scythe Andy Samurai Master CPU heatsink/fan to replace the fan that came with the Core 2 Duo. Unfortunately, it is too large to fit within the cooling pipes that surround the CPU. Does anyone have any suggestions on a large, silent fan that will fit?

    case suggestions please

    With regard to those special screws required in the Lian Li 1200 case (see previous post from me in this thread). Not only did I get the required screws from my resller, Performmace-PC, but also from Lian Li via registered mail from Tiawan, and JCL in CA by regular mail. I think that these...

    case suggestions please

    I recently bought a pre-modded Lian Li V1200B w/window. Lian Li shorted me on the HDD Fixed Screws, which are a special screw needed for their quick disconnect HDD drives, and Performance-PC made good very rapidly. They do a very nice mod and have excellent customer service. I visited their...

    2 SATA Raid 0 + 2 SATA Raid 0 + 2 SATA DVD

    Still one question. If both the DVD drives were on the same controller, wouldn't there be a performance hit if I was copying one to the other? Or is the Southbridge so much faster that it would compensate? I really appreciate your help. I am building my Dream Machine and I want it perfect!

    I have an ASUS A8N SLI Deluxe motherboard. It has the capability of connecting 4 SATA drives via the Southbridge chipset and connecting 4 SATA drives via the Silicon Image controller. I have two 74Gb Raptor drives that I want to configure as Raid 0 and I have two 34 GB Raptor drives that I...
