I'm not sure if you know already, but if you're overdriving them, you'll probably need a resistor... LEDs become less resistive when they heat up, so they allow more current through, which heats them more, and you get the point. The heat will cause them to eventually burn out. You might not...

Thread subscribed :D I was curious if you put a resistor on those LEDs on the vid card because I didn't see one?

prolineracing.com they make spinners for R/C monster trucks. they're on ebay for about $40 a set.

I have a reserator on a Intel 2.8 and an old ass geforce ti4200 but I like it a lot. It's a bit bulky though and I kinda wish I had gone w/ the Innovatek radiator, but it does the job well. I don't overclock either, so the reserator works great for what I need it for: silence :D I've never...

What's wrong with running just distilled water w/o any additives? I'm using a reserator as well, but with just distilled water. I've had it for about a month and I don't have any problems yet *knock on wood* I'm using the stock CPU block and a Zalman GPU block though.

Those things are freaking expensive though :( Well, maybe I'll just watercool the HDs, and rig a 92 or 120mm fan to blow through the PSU. My IBM drive makes this stupid pulsating noise so if I watercool it, I can wrap it in foam to silence the stupid thing. Dell's PSUs use a pretty loud...

Since everyone loves pictures, here's a pic of my latest creation. I bought a light from Ikea, but it wouldn't fit where I wanted it to go because the speaker was taking up the prime real estate, so I combined the two :D I'm all obsessed now with making my comptuer quieter and I'm...

your case reminds me of the Burj Al Arab Hotel Dubai :D

Thanks again for the compliments and comments :D compslckr, the engine must've been off when I took the picture. It's a little above 12 when the car's off because it's just running off the battery, and when the engine's on, it's 12-14 volts, depending on RPMs. The electrical system in my...

Thanks for the compliments, and uhhh, comments :D Well, if this was an xbox or something, or maybe just a custom computer, I'd put lights all over it and do the whole shebang. But, this thing is a Dell, so I'm sticking more with function than form, so I don't want my mods to look too...

Let me say first that I think that you guys have some amazing skills on this forum. I've been lurking for a while, checking out your guy's creations, and I find myself burning off 2 hours in front of the computer like it's nothing. I sort of wish I had built my own computer so I could...
