    i5 3570k temps

    I am running my 3570k at 4.1GHz with a coolermaster hyper 212. At idle i am at around 10-15C depending on the ambient temperature, and under full load i have not seen anything above 70C. Like was said above, try reseating your hsf because that does seem a little high.

    New router, internet slower?

    Hey guys, i had my lines serviced today by Comcast, and during them working on my house my modem took a dump and was longer operational. I asked the technician if he had one he could switch mine out with and he didn't. So since i had to pick up a new modem from the local office i decided i would...

    Project Prism - A Lian-Li PC-v2000 Worklog

    Instead of hand filing, it might be easier to use a grinder with a thin metal cutting wheel. That way it should keep an even spacing and you probably would only have to cut it twice. Looking awesome besides that though, really a nice build!

    Haven't built in a while, need some help!

    I am sorry, i completely missed that last line. The reason i ask is the case comes with 2 i believe, but if i buy 2 200mm fans i could have 2 fans on the cooler, as well as a rear exhaust a top exhaust and a front intake. Once again thank you so much for your help.

    Danny Bui, Thank you very much that was exactly the kind of advice i was looking for, i put it together in an amazon cart and your right it came out much cheaper due to the lack of sales tax. So besides the addition of a couple of fans this will be a good build? Is it better to use one 200mm fan...

    Haven't built in a while, need some help!

    Well, i just did and sure enough they arent on there, in fact there are only 2 8GB sticks listed on the support page. Is gigabyte really shoddy now? The reviews seem very 50/50. Or there are some MSI boards in that range.

    Haven't built in a while, need some help!

    Well, let me pose this question to you all. How much of a realistic difference are we talking about here? Although i will be using VMs but it wont be all that extreme, at most mabey an ubuntu, or android VM. EDIT: also are my components fairly good quality/brands? obviously i know they aren't...

    The closest place to me is a frys, but its still a good 30 minutes from me. And if it comes down to that then VM performance most definately. so would you recommend going with an intel cpu, and going cheaper on the GPU? or where should i shave some cost?

    Haven't built in a while, need some help!

    well is that doable in that price range? because i am starting completely fresh and it would take me a while to be able to raise my budget.
