    Miners chance to win 290

    Nah, they really do sell out regularly. I am willing to bet that people will pay that 550 for non-reference 290. I hate that. It is going to mess up the market for the future. :mad: But I got my reference one for 430 with battlefield, so I am not dissatisfied yet.... apart from shipping time.

    Miners chance to win 290

    As a gamer and now part time miner, dont think I would have picked up a 290 without the money back incentive that it provided to me. Even if it isnt alot, it is alot more than the 780 would have given me. Sucks that prices went up, but I saw it coming. Sucks for just gamers though, not gonna lie

    Best looking 120mm fan (FROM THE BACK)

    I saw the case being thrown away and immediately it spoke to me and said 'badass lan rig' with a color scheme of black and white. It is now gutted on the inside, the powersupply relocated with a passthrough. Additional fan holes cut here and there, and it now accepts normal M-ATX...

    Best looking 120mm fan (FROM THE BACK)

    I know what direction a fan flows... :p If you are not familiar with a powermac g4, the side is steel with an outside shield of plexiglass. On the side there is airspace between. I notched out the bottom for intake. The front of the fan will NOT be seen, only the sticker side will. Because it...

    Best looking 120mm fan (FROM THE BACK)

    Start with Backstory Currently I am doing a case mod with a Powermac G4 Graphite. The color scheme is black and white with only a dash of red. Currently no LEDs planned, though MAYBE a strip up top. Perhaps I should put up a build log of this case? I just dont know if i can afford all the...

    Video card upgrade advice?

    I was in the exact situation that you were in just 2 weeks ago or so. I sold my 660ti locally on craigslist, since I still had the box and everything to go along with it I was able to get 220 for it, citing good overclocks and cooling. It was a Galaxy GC 2gb one and I listed it at 220 right...

    CoolClouds Crowdfunded CPU Cooler

    I call shenanigans. Almost every diagram has a different thing illustrated and when it comes right down to it, limited fins only gets rid of so much heat, liquid doesnt change that. Lets not ignore that 300w 4.7 figure.... Would not touch with a 10 ft pole myself.

    How often do you clean your fans?

    I end out cleaning all of the fans in my rig every 2 months or so because that is the frequency at which new bits find their way into my system and I notice the dust. PSU fan dust filter is 2 weeks or less though. +1 on the smoke enfused dust. I have picked up several laptops and rigs that have...

    So I think my h220 pump just died....quick question

    Disconnect ALL your psu cables in the rig, connect up the h220 pump to it hardwired to molex or whatever, then short the psu via the 24 pin to power it on and listen for the pump running or not. If you have the spare parts to do so, you can use a spare psu for safety. Hope she's not dead, but...

    My [old] rig has that motherboard, the QVL included corsair, patriot, gskill, and others if my memory serves me well.

    R9 290 Trifire vs Crossfire Scaling results

    Thanks for the properly relevant benchmarks at 1600 and upscale rendering! As it was said earlier, 1080p results are basically worthless for such setups. I want to see those screenshots though!!!! :cool:

    780 = Cell --- 290(x) = SSJ2 Gohan

    Given the comparison and the simple fact that yelling more means more power, i fail to see why the shrieking banshee know as the 290x is not the most powerful of them all!
