I agree with Technophobe. Making the case close to sealed with filtered intakes (with no fans) and 1, maybe 2 (including the Power Supply, they tend to need a bit of air) exhaust fans would result in a fairly dust-free system.

Very decent, looks like it works really well

Yeah, not a huge fan of Leonard Cohen's version. Haven't heard Joan Baez's version of Satisfied Mind, though I was aware of it. I (along with a lot of other people) just like Jeff Buckley's cover of Hallelujah a lot better than the original. That said I also like the Rufus Wainwright version...

There are a few people saying Jeff Buckley - Hallelujah Also check out from Jeff Buckley - "I Know It's Over" (Original is by The Smiths) "We All Fall In Love Sometimes" (Impossible to find full recording. It was recorded live at a radio station and as far as I know there are only a few...

I have the 160gig classic. It suits me just fine, storage is great, battery life is great, I've dropped it a few times (enough to leave fairly decent looking scars) and it's going strong (maybe I've just been lucky, but I've roughed up my current iPod and my old 30gig Video quite a lot without...

save money...earmuffs...

Another good review from me. I got a 30gig iPod video when they first came out and it's lasted me 'till a few weeks ago when I upgraded to a 160gig for capacity reasons. (the 30gig is still going strong, sold it to a work colleague) I had dropped it a few times onto concrete (enough force to...

Most speaker sets that include a sub will have it written somewhere in the manual that you should keep the subwoofer away from sensitive components due to the magnet/s. Of course it has been proven time and time again that it's safe to have it sitting as close to your computer as you like...

So...logitech sent you a brand new set of z-5500 speakers for free? Daaaamn...lucky. The difficulty is that the amp isn't what's buggered in your unit, it's the control unit. You could hook it all up to another amp (disconnecting the amp that already comes with the sub) but you'd want to make...

Hmmm...I'm sure that more than 5 minutes searching would've found you a result. But just 'cos I'm nice, I'd recommend the Vantec Cable sleeving kit (in whatever colour you want). It's fairly self explanatory as to what size sleeving to use on which cables. But I think they include a short...

It'll work with any memory (maybe not OCZ Reaper or something like Corsair Dominators since that ram has quite a tall heat sink assembly). As far as caps go it wouldn't be the retention system that you'd have to mod. At the most you may have to cut a square out of the side if it is in the...

Or you could do what I did...and take some 800grit wet or dry sandpaper to it...gotta love the brushed metal finish:) and who needs warranties anyway....:D

Did your search consist of anything more than getting blazed then making this thread? http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=791179 Come on dude it's second from the top in the case gallery...2 clicks away

Pretty normal. Definitely nothing to worry about. Mine runs at between 32-40 with a Zalman 9700 at its lowest fan speed

If you don't count the PSU and the Video card fans as exhaust fans then nope, none in this case...just lots and lots of tiny little holes. I am working on designing a shroud that will allow the video card to get some fresh air, but at the moment sensors show it idling around 55 and loading at...
