    Cooler for i7 920

    Hey, thanks for the replies :) My case is an Antec Twelve Hundred. Thermalright venomous X looks nice too. It's a bit more expensive than the D14 (in Denmark), and I will also need to buy the fans. It's going to be too expensive :( Will coolers for LGA1366 fit with Socket R/LGA2011? They are...

    Cooler for i7 920

    Hello, <$90 The Noctua NH-D14 seems interesting, but there's so many coolers out there. Can't decide.

    Cooler for i7 920

    Hey, I've been using the stock cooler for my i7 920 since 2008, but the temps are pretty high (55C idle, 96C load). I'm worried that it might damage the CPU. Before I cleaned the cooler for dust, idle was 85C and load about 110C. I would like a new cooler, and there's a chance that I might go...

    Something better than T220?

    Hello, I would like a new lcd display. I'm tired of my old T220 (flickering, extreme back light bleed). I'm running on a single GPU, so i'm looking for a 22 to 24 inch monitor. I would like a fast response time and low inputlag, since i'm gonna use it for hardcore gaming only. Thanks (:

    Replacement for a TX650W

    My computer is completely new, and i don't want to wait for days to get a new PSU. I tried the PSU with the same GPU, in my old Athlon PC, and it did still whine. The Toughpower do not whine, but now i can hear my GPU whine and say odd sounds.. but i think it always had.. The PSU whine might...

    Replacement for a TX650W

    Thanks, Even if the whine-noise is normal, i still can't live with it, and i fear i will have the same problem if i switch to another Corsair unit. PC P&C + Enermax are rarely sold in Denmark, and they are much more expensive compared to the US. What about the Zalman 850W? According to a...

    Replacement for a TX650W

    Yes, it's coming from the power supply. I used a short tube, and listened to all hardware when i was scrolling on a website.

    Replacement for a TX650W

    They use Enhance for the ZM850 PSU.. I don't think they are better quality. I just can't buy a Corsair PSU ever again and feel safe. These abnormal whine sounds are pretty scary. I just found out that TT Toughpower uses CWT, and i don't know if they are better or not. I'm gonna place a order...

    Replacement for a TX650W

    Thanks for the replies, I'm not sure if it's the same problem we are talking about? The whine is not constant. My PSU is noisy, when i'm scrolling on the web, especially if there's many pictures. Also when loading in games (much louder at +200 fps), and it also does it occasionally. My GTX260...

    Replacement for a TX650W

    Hello, i need a replacement for my noisy (high pitch noise) Corsair TX650W. I would like at least 850W. Been looking at the Antec Toughpower 850W.. is it a high quality PSU? I would also like to know, if modular and multi-rail power supplies are that bad (i've been searching google)?

    High pitched whining sounds from hardware

    Ye, it sounds like it comes from the GPU or the PSU, but i'm not sure.. I could use a stethoscope.

    High pitched whining sounds from hardware

    Hello, i just got my i7 system, and everything works perfectly except, for a weird high pithes sounds from the motherboard/gpu/psu or something else. It often happends when i'm scrolling on a webpage, or if the system is working on something. For example, everytime Vantage loads a test, i can...

    GTX 260/216 XFX Black?

    GTX 260/216 XFX Black?

    Hello, i'm living in Denmark, and anything is more expensive. A GTX260/192 costs minimum $340 (Inno3D). GTX 280 goes from $510 (Asus). :( The 9800GTX+ which goes from $220 (EVGA), which i think is the best bang for the $$, but a bit too slow for my new system.

    GTX 260/216 XFX Black?

    Hello, i'm looking for a gpu for my new i7 920 rig. I've been looking at XFX GTX 260 Black edition, and a EVGA GTX 260, Core 216. Price is almost the same ($405). So, if i buy the XFX black, which seems to be the fastest GTX 260 card out atm, will i still have high stability or will the...
