    Looking for MM case mod ideas

    AMD guy? Yeah, I cringed a little when I read that you're running an AM2 Phenom in that case. That doesn't really do it justice. I associate extreme projects with mountain mods cases. The first one I saw in person housed an EVGA SR-2 (the first sample given out in the US) and 2x engineering...

    Best waterblock for 7970?

    Love my Heatkiller blocks. Even running furmark for extended periods of time doesn't heat the cards up much. Takes about 10 minutes to reach 40C on the cores. The only problem that I noticed is availability. I was thinking of adding a third card, but, last I checked, vendors were out of...

    Looking for Clean Full Size Case

    Yeah, I was looking at this case for my build. Unbeatable price/performance ratio, no doubt. I couldn't get over the fact that it's a 40 pound steel beast, though. I move and tinker too often to bear having a steel/plastic case. One pays dearly for unibody alu cases like my Silverstone...

    Corsair h60 replacement fans

    I heard that. Not really surprising to me since the price is too good to be true. These are probably better suited as quiet case fans and not rad fans. P.S., the price dropped to 12 bucks on amazon. :p

    First time cable sleeving, all help much appreciated!

    For the ATX12V connector, you can be lazy and buy a premade one and sleeve that yourself, or buy the female/male connectors/pins and DIY. http://www.nivo.co.za/buy~lian.li.male.atx12v.8.pin.to.female.atx12v.8.pin.power.extension.cable.30cm~p31441 Molex makes special tools for removing...

    Silverstone TJ09

    Good luck. Hopefully someone who's done it chimes in. You'll def'ly want a triple rad with a dual-core GPU and hex core 1366 chip. At full load they'll overwhelm even the best dual 120 setup, IMO.

    Silverstone TJ09

    Herpaderp... I can't believe it but I had a massive brain fart. The system I just built is a TJ07... sorry, man! LOL. And I was wondering why I missed there being a rad support for my case :D

    Silverstone TJ09

    I have the TJ09 USB3 and i was also hell-bent on an internal triple rad. I can post a pic of my setup, but I wound up ripping out the HDD cages in the bottom of the case and installing the triple 120 down there. The case has nice mesh in both side panels, so it's good airflow for the radiator...

    Corsair h60 replacement fans

    are you replacing them because the fans failed or are upgrading? I don't think you'll get a noticeable difference @ the same dB level, if you're upgrading...

    Tips to make my overclock better/more stable?

    I say you have a great overclock @ 4.5 in your second post.... key was taking the auto voltage out of the equation. You can push a few 100 mhz out of it, I bet, but you'll see diminishing returns in terms of heat output and power consumption.

    Some Dumb n00b Questions

    Since you're on air and have high ambients, I'd stay away from auto OC. The key for you to get a good 24/7 stable overclock is optimizing heat output. You can't do that with excessively high volts. I typically manually set all voltages to standard values, set memory to rated XMP specs, and...
