    Bioshock Infinite - MSAA/SGSSAA ??

    I wish it were that easy. Doesn't work though =[ I know alot of dx10/11 games have trouble with tradition AA methods due to the deferred rendering malarky they use. Bioshock Infinite is using the UE3 engine, that much I know, but none of the compatibility bits work. (Compatibility bits as in...

    XSPC RX360 - whine, tone - looking for replacement

    Righto, sorted. I bit the bullet and bought an EX360 and an EX120. 'Hooked up the SP120s, and all I get is a very faint whine. If I hold the rad in my hand I can feel a pulsing vibration. Tweaking the RPM with speedfan all but gets rid of it completely. Turning off all fans and leaving the...

    XSPC RX360 - whine, tone - looking for replacement

    Nono, I'm using speedfan to control the fans, which are running off the mobo headers. The pump is a D5 running full whack, mounted inside a XSPC D5 reservoir. I disabled the pump for a bit, leaving the fans running, and the noise is still there. The D5 emits a quiet hum once it spins up (as...

    XSPC RX360 - whine, tone - looking for replacement

    I posted a thread a while back about (what I thought were) my Gentle Typhoon AP-15s making a whining tone when mounted to my radiator. A few developments since then... I sold the Cosmos II for a 800D; the main reason being that the RX had to be crammed into the bottom of the case, where...

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Just plugged one in to triple check. For all you music lovers, the hum is nearly a tone above middle C. So just slightly flat of a D. Right, so Cougars, I'll look them up. Any San Ace fans (pun intended) out there?

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    I suspected my case/rad setup could be causing the noise, but holding the fans in my hand i got a distinctive high pitch hum. Even if the motor noise (or whatever it is) is amplified through the case, how would I go about getting rid of it? I rubber-washer all the screws...apart from doing...

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Buggar man. Luck of the draw it seems... I've changed my mind on the AP-14s. a) I'm spooked by the noise. b) $57 to send the AP-15s back for RMA (!!). c) I guess the PL-2s are doing the job... Unless... Anyone tried undervolting San Ace fans? SP-120s any good? Any other recommendations?

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Got them from here - http://quietpc.co.nz/. I'm in New Zealand, but looks like these guys are UK based. I'm baffled as to why I got a bad bunch. I'm picking it's an inherent characteristic of the fan, and that I'm sensitive to the frequency they're throwing out...but hey, I could be wrong. I...

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Right, well at least I know it's not just me! I thought I could get away with under-volting the AP15s, but still they whine. @Colonel Sanders - Hard case man. What are you going to do? Go with AP-14s, or switch brands? I'm going to return the 15s and give the lower rpm versions a shot (13 or...

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Thanks guys. Might swap them for some AP-13s; not like the RX360 isn't coping. Any AP-14 users out there?

    Gentle Typhoon advice

    Hey kids, I purchased 4 AP-15s to replace my NoiceBlocker PL-2s. Better performance with a slight increase in noise, albeit a 'nice' noise. Right? The AP-15s emit a hideous, throbbing, high pitched whine! I'm picking at least a few of you have experienced this? Doesn't matter how I mount...

    RX360 radiator, PULL config - Corsair AF120 or SP120?

    Cheers mate, clears that up nicely.

    RX360 radiator, PULL config - Corsair AF120 or SP120?

    Hey peeps, With everyone raving about the new Corsair SP120 fans, I wanted to know if they'd be appropriate in a pull config? (I can't for the life of me find an answer through google). The RX360 has a fairly low FPI count, which is why I went for pull. If they ARE appropriate, where do...
