    XP-120 and Nexus temperature problems

    Thanks for the replies. I don't remember the old temperatures with the stock cooler however when I'll have time I'll reinstall the HS with proper spreading of the thermal paste.

    Uh oh. Exploded Antec PS and some questions...

    Basically about a year ago I purchased a new computer. It includes a 2.6c and a sapphire ati 9800. The video card has been “modded” to a 9800 pro. For the case I purchased the Antec sonata and it came with a powersupply, one which I always considered good, Antec true power 380W. I thought...
