    Thinking about putting a GTX 580 into a fragbox

    I got a couple of these cases on ebay myself, I love them but cooling is an issue (as is video card length, but easy to mod a bit to get around that, hdd cage needs to be moved). There is no front ventilation at all, from the sides you have one 80mm fan, and the back has a little 40mm? fan...

    How modular is modular?

    I'm rebuilding a old mini ATX system and have a nice two year old Silverstone ST600, it used a 4pin 12v ATX cable to power old motherboard, the new motherboard has a 8 pin EPS connector..... can I use a 8 pin modular connector I have laying around from another power supply? Or is there a risk of...

    I thought the AX1200's fan was supposed to spin down at idle?

    My AX1200 is neither loud (under stress), nor does it does it have any problem idling the fan, then again I've got two 480's so maybe im not the best judge of fan noise:)

    Wife Build, PSU choice

    Building my wife a 1155 mini-itx, found this this a SeaSonic SS-300ET, for 39.99, she'll be running integrated graphics, and no plan on upgrading, I'm sure a 300w ps should be perfect for this, should I go for this PS or is there a better option, quality PS for a i3/1155 build? Thanks

    ECS Elitegroup? Any good

    I'm looking to re-build a micro ATX system and one of my main requirements are dual network cards, I found this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813135266 and from what I've seen haven't found a lot of negative reviews of this company, anyone else have experience with ECS...

    Should I upgrade the cooler on 480 GTX's?

    I have the exact same setup, two gtx480's and two Accelero's. Top card does get a bit warmer, I'd say it runs 10-15C hotter than the bottom card, but never gets over 85C. Lower card hits 70C. This is under heavy stress with ambient being around 22C. I think I'd get better results if I used a...

    M-itx cooling

    Sounds good, I like the 100m Scythe option... I couldn't imagine contorting my self around the inside of that case installing a water cooling setup. Makes my fingers hurt just thinking of it! Thanks for the ideas

    M-itx cooling

    Just put together my first m-itx, and while doing my usual bench testing I noticed I didn't seat the stock Intel, crappy push pin cooler on my i3 proc correctly (what were they thinking when they designed these?), so I'm now redoing everything. Any suggestions for a high quality cooler for my...

    Quad output single slot card

    Awesome info, yes looks like I'll go with the Quadro or the FireMV, its going to be a miniITX system so either I think will work well. Thanks!

    Quad output single slot card

    Looking for a single slot video card capable of displaying to for displays, wouldn't be used for gaming at all, just displaying 2D data (something like airport arrival/departure screens) I'd like at least 1080p, and prefer either HDMI or DVI output. So far I've found this...
