    NVIDIA nForce 680i Chipset Problems

    I've had problems since I purchased my 680i. :mad: Heat issues from day 1, but I eventually smoothed them out. CPU runs a little hotter than I'd like but still far below critical temps. After I started getting blue screens, I determined the board was faulty then got RMA replacement. Month...

    Increasing airflow in the cosmos 1000?

    The bottom line is...replace the fans! I had heating issues all around with the stock case fans. I'm running a q6600 B3 @ 3.0GHz with a Zalman 9500 cooler and an 8800GTS. The temps were something like this: CPU 55 / 70 GPU 73 / 90 (Ambient temp was pretty high) I replaced the Zalman with a...

    Went from Antec 900 to CM Cosmos

    The Scythe KAMA BAY SCKB-1000WH seems like a great solution for my CPU cooling. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185019 It occupies three 5.25" bays (I only have one optical drive). The fan intake is in the front-middle of the case pointed dirctly at the CPU. In a...

    I agree entirely. Plus, have you seen how sexy the case is?! That was the main selling point for me. Based on a lot of people's reports, just replace the case fans and you should be in good shape. My problem is I don't have those fans yet and I'm trying to squeeze every last bit of...

    Went from Antec 900 to CM Cosmos

    SR45: Im working with the 1000 model. I didn't see the 1010 when I was looking, but now that I have the 1000 I would have spent an additional $50 for the side vent. I'm not very handy with a saw or drill. :mad: My cables are tucked away pretty well, but certainly not as well as xp's. One...

    Went from Antec 900 to CM Cosmos

    Be prepared to put some time and $$ into the cosmos if you get one. It's definitely not ready to go out of the box. At least not for most people. I will say, though, I'm glad I have one!

    Went from Antec 900 to CM Cosmos

    Excellent post. I finally found a good cosmos thread. I was immediately in awe at the case's looks and space, but once the hardware was in the temps were hot. At stock "everything," temps were idling at: CPU / GPU / System 50 / 58 / 28 I know, I know. I reseated the heatsink (Zalman...
