    Fan recommendations?

    How about 92mm fans, I need one for my CPU heater (a Ultima-90) and two for the case. I understand with the CPU cooler static pressure becomes a concern also so I want to make sure I dont mess that up.

    Fan recommendations?

    I am doing some updating on my system and want to take this chance to update all my case fans (now 4 years old) with newer fans that are hopefully fairly quiet. My case is a thermaltake armor + (with the big side fan). I have one gpu (gigabyte gtx570 oc with the 3 fans, fairly quiet VGA...

    What card(s) for steady 100 fps in bf3 high 1650x1080?

    What card(s) for steady 100 fps in bf3 high 1650x1080?

    This thread is really helpful for me. I also am looking to upgrade gpu for bf3, and also am limited to 1650 X 1050 resolution. My CPU is an AMD Phenom II x4 940 Black Edition 3.0Ghz (overclocked to 3.6Ghz). Not sure what GPU to go for.
