    Auzentech (c-media) and headphone detection

    Hey all, Having some trouble with a new X-Meridian 7.1 2G. Everything works as you would expect, except that the speakers will not cut when headphones are plugged in. The front panel detection is working with the on-board (yes thats disabled just enabled it for a test) so its not the port...

    EK supreme block, worth worrying about restrictivness?

    Hey all, recently got the following loop set up thanks to the advice of a few great people here (thanks to those that helped me so much in my first thread). Loop is; Res -> Laing D5 -> Black Ice GTS 360 -> EK-Supreme HF - Acetal+Nickel (CPU Block) -> BI GTX 140 -> EK-FC5X0 GTX GW Acetal +...

    Radiator area question

    Did a bit more looking around, loop so far seems to be be; - Pump - Laing D5 - Rads - 1 x Black Ice GTS 360 6 fans in push/pull with shrouding both sides; 1 x BI GTX 140 single fan in pull (mounted on the rear exhaust mount); 1 x BI GTX 120 with 1 fan in pull (mounted at the bottom). - Res -...

    Radiator area question

    That's handy to know, thanks!! I know the EK specifically fits the GW version since it's stated in the compatibility list for that block. I will check the prices, haven't seen what the EK is worth here in Aus yet, if it's not much different I will go with the EK for the look as well as the...

    Radiator area question

    I didn't think the FPI through properly tbh, was too early in the morning and I needed sleep! The top 3.120 rad I want as high as possibly since it will be push/pull but almost any other option has to push or pull not both so I will probably go lower FPI there. Have yet to see a good comparison...

    Radiator area question

    Thanks aphasia, in the back of my mind I did know that but I wouldn't have remembered! Aus10 Thanks for that thread link, some great ideas in there! I am still working on exact parts, there are so many choices! So far though; - Pump - sticking with the recommended Laing D5 (goggled a lot of...

    Radiator area question

    Thanks aphasia! I wasn't planning on any dyes, if I really want to play with aesthetics later I will probably stick to UV tubing. Is distilled water + anti-microbial better than a full-blown coolant? Edit - After some research it seems distilled water + anti-bacterial/microbial (such as PT...

    Radiator area question

    Thanks for all the advice guys! I was going to leave the mobo out of the loop (though I did look at blocks for my board for giggles) since the 800D has so many fan mounts (going to use all of them with quiet fans so decent airflow for the stuff that's not WC'd). Was really only considering...

    Radiator area question

    Hey guys, been browsing this forum (as well as a few other sites) for a couple of days but seem to be reading a lot of contradicting info. I did do a search and couldn't find an answer but I apologise if I'm rehashing an existing thread. Obviously I'm new to water-cooling but I have learnt the...
