I checked and the fan does spin when the PC powers up, so I guess it the PSU temps are staying under the fan limit.. will run some more CPU and GPU stress test to see if I can get it to spin... my CPU temps are at 58C under x264 stability test and GPU is at 51C under CPU core burner v2 (Furry donut)

hmm... my sf600 fan has never turned on.. even during furmark stress test.. i wonder if the fan on my psu even works?

finally got my watercooled gpu and everything was a tight fit... but it fits.. msi 1070 sea hawk x with noctua 120 ippc fan both fans are blowing into the radiators to exhaust hot air, the rear panel 90mm acts as intake

finished assembling my base system with v5 case last night, waiting for nvidia 1080/1070 with watercooler release to fill the GPU void - corsair h75 radiator mounted on side bracket on the lower screw mounts - right side of panel reserved for watercooled gpu - low profile noctua 92mm fan...

mine was delivered today (Toronto Canada) but i was not home to receive it.. so my build will have to start tomorrow!

thanks for the reply! I'm still researching on Win 7 vs Win 8 in terms of support for XBMC and other software, as well as some other case options.. I'll look into the OriginAE m10 case!

Hi everyone, I've built various gaming and budget desktop PC's, but this is my first time putting together a SFF/HTPC, so I would like some feedback on the parts that I've picked out after a bit of research: I'm hoping to control the audio/video players with either a remote or using VNC from...

i was able to install the origin client on SSD/C:, and then put origin games on HDD using Link Shell Extension (wasn't aware that you can't change the Origin Games folder to a drive other than C: from within the client) http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1482722

hi, where can i buy this PSU? it really cleans up the wiring and sound like a good upgrade to the stock one thanks!

for those that have this motherboard.. does it look like the Prolimatech Samuel 17 heatsink will clear the nb/sb heatsink and ram? (i guess by orienting the heatpipes towards the cmos battery) http://www.prolimatech.com/products/cpu_cooler/samuel%2017.html thanks!

thanks for the feedback! i may end up going with the 310-150 as i prefer the silver face plate.. and a larger PSU minus the external power adapter for about the same price sounds better..

hi everyone, i am planning to build the following system with this case.. for now, i plan on using it as a pure music player (alac/flac using foobar with optical --> external DAC and AMP for headphones only).. and in the future, possibly upgrading it to a media center by adding a TV tuner...

i've bought a set of M10's and S2W speakers from theaudioinsider.com, total cost was about $140 + $50 USD shipping to toronto.. then FEDEX/Customs charged me $60 tax/fees/whatever.. :mad: should have went with USPS shipping instead.. other than the customs fee everything went well with them

$80 for the ad700 is a pretty good deal.. i find the velvet pads + 2 head pads (?) to be very comfortable and it doesn't get too warm after long use spec wise the ad700 has a slightly bigger 5-30kHz vs jvc 7-26kHz, i haven't tried the rx900's but i would suspect that the bass is a bit heavier...
