    What to do with all this crap?

    XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 lives again

    Reading back on this- the push pull method being having two 80mm fans on each side of the heatsink- one pushing air and the other expelling it out the other side? Your feedback is greatly appreciated as you have a very similar system to what I am purchasing. Thanks!

    XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 lives again

    Thanks guys, After reading the reviews on newegg linked above and several reviews elsewhere I'm going to give this thing a shot. I think its a really viable solution especially since I could add two fans to each side of the heatsink that line up with my rear output to push the heat directly...

    A short while is before December 15th. I am selling a car and estimate it will take me no longer than that date to sell it. The profit from that sale will equal my system of which I plan to make anywhere from 1,000 to 1,200 profit.

    BF3 PC 1k

    I don't think I need to SLI (right now) so I am going to try to get the best card for around $250-$275 as possible. What do you guys think about a 6950 with a lot of video memory like MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III? I have read that BF3 is a video memory hog and going with the 2GB sounds like...
