Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here.

Just use ThrottleStop. Heck, I am a silent freak and I use my fans at low RPM, and even on my H67 board, if CPU goes past 65 degrees Celsius, it throttles.
With ThrottleStop I gain another benefit on my board. I can also run the CPU at 3,4GHz, so all time TurboMode (i5 2500 is 3.3 default)...
On my Asrock H67M-ITX/HT i can control it. Either from bios or windows.
From bios it's the chasis fan and i can choose "levels" from 1 to 10, and it changes the rpm.
Or set it to full speed and use an app like SpeedFan.
Personally, I use the bios version due the fact that i got alot of programs...
So I tried to flip the 180mm AP fan so it would work as exhaust, thinking that the positive pressure thingie is bullcrap.
Well, it was total failure, temps raised quite a bit.
Any way to exhaust the hot air from this case?
Ok, so I just ordered one LanBox Blackheart at 115 euros. Problem is that I'm paying 58 euros for shipping, even tho I'm in Europe (damn 3rd world countries).
I talked to olivarius about problems listed here and he told me that they fixed them. I guess I'll see in a week (hopefully, due holidays).
Well I don't think they are dead. Tho I live in Europe aswell.
I noticed a huge price drop on DaBox. The only thing that keeps me away from ordering is the huge shipping price. It's 40 euros for shipping it to Romania, and I'ts outrageous, considering I paid 17euros for SG07 shipping from...
Sorry for bumping this. Anyone got any contact e-mail, forum for these guys?
I really want to buy DaBox Blackheart but want to make sure of some things before I pay.
I don't like it. Bad design in all LianLi small cases tbh. They are big in terms of volume and have poor PSU placement. PSU either sucks hot air from above CPU or GPU.
I am interested in something cube-like. V354 is rather tower-ish. I'd rather buy Fractal Design Define Mini instead of it.
Hello...Langear still breathing?
I must admit that I haven't read all the pages of this thread, tho I see that some people complain about the build quality of this case.
Currently i got a Silverstone SG07, nice case but I kinda need to go mATX. DaBox seems perfect.
Other "competitor" would be...
Bump. Same thing happens on i5 2500k. Only fix i found is ThrotttleStop and make it start minimized with windows.
Bios version 1.3. Everything disabled or manual set in bios, it still throttles.
The throttling happens at over 65 degrees celcius (maybe OP had some bad software that reports it)...
So let's pump it up! :P
Im really lazy to translate my post from a romanian forum, so let google do that for you. Pictures will talk from themselves.
1st batch of pictures is from 1st assembly with intel stock fan and messy cable management.
2nd batch is with prolima samuel + noiseblocker fan...
If you want overclocking and general future proof go option 2.
Both Zotac and Asrock Z68 boards are terrible overclockers. Not to mention that LGA2011 won't have mITX, unless some very crazy poor featured board that could squeeze 4 horizontal SODIMM banks.
I would go for the SG07.
1. The PSU is replaceable with any 140mm long PSU, there are quite a few options for you.
2. Limited CPU cooling? not at all. I think there is room for WC (normal not AIO crap) for both CPU and GPU. Ofc with some modding.
Not to mention that SB is a very cool cpu.
3. I...
