    Best i7 cooler tha WONT block a DIMM

    I would go with the H50 as well if you can mount the 120mm rad in your case properly.

    Corsair H50

    Mine is silent as well. Happy with it now, however, I had the older style mounting kit and had to shim the backplate with some rubber spacers in order to properly set the block to the cpu. Without the shims it was simply not tight enough for proper cooling. I also ended up removing the TIM and...

    It's almost like Christmas! - My new i7 build.

    Got it mostly running last night at stock speeds. Updated the ASRock bios to 1.6 before I installed windows. Had to reseat the memory a couple of time to get the entire 6gb recognized which worries me, but it's working fine now. Ran prime95 all night without problems. That case is REALLY nice...

    unable to find a 5850

    I got lucky and found a 5850 in stock at mwave.com on Monday. It was only in stock for about 10 or 15 minutes but I was lucky enough to get an order in. It should be here today. It's a Sapphire brand but who cares. I was shocked to see it in stock. It was really just dumb luck on my part. Keep...

    PhysX card

    I thought you couldn't use nVidia card for physx when your main card(s) are ATI?

    I got lucky and found a Sapphire 5850 in stock at an etailer (for about 15 minutes) on Monday. Should be here tomorrow :D They sure didn't last long and it was dumb luck I was able to grab one.

    New i7 920 build, need PS, memory, and video card opinions.

    I am going to save and wait for a 5850, I don't see much point in going with the 5770 right now. I'll either delay building this thing or use one of my 8800gt's until I can get a 5850 if I just can't wait to put it all together. I building this more for pleasure, and like I just told my brother...

    New i7 920 build, need PS, memory, and video card opinions.

    I went with the 850HX I just really like that PS for some reason. I think I'm going to go with Corsair ram as well. The XMS3 CAS 8 is only $160 with a $10 rebate and free shipping. That will leave me about $180 to $200. I'm still trying to decide what to do on the video card.

    They must have just changed it today as it wasn't that price yesterday IIRC. The free shipping and rebate are new too. I went ahead and ordered it.
