gtx 570 and a H60. For now anyway! I presume the h60 will struggle to keep the 4770k anywhere near cool lol.
When funds allow I'll upgrade. Looking to get a parvum itx case and new cpu cooler next :)
just to say ive purchased this, will see what it can do with a 4770k and 16gb of kingston beast 2400mhz.
Needed a new pc sharpish and couldn't be bothered to wait for msi/giga to stock, or for DC lol. I've never really bothered with overclocking so should be a bit of fun.
Any queries or...
cpu cooler, i was potentially thinking of an h50 (or other varient depending on size) which could possibly choke out the psu if a higher end graphics card was used.
i did make a thread a while ago about my mobo/heatsink choice/and my q08, similar answers were produced (mainly toward the axp140...
hey everyone :)
looking to downsize from a q08 to something properly tiny, and got my eye on the little 05'.
Just wondering if you could chuck some quick answers (as ive been reading back through the thread but am getting lost)
spec in sig, really wondering on a few main pointers:
whats the...
expensive indeed.
also the comment by keith on that maximum pc site, reallly annoyed me...
It does come with an optical bay cover, no case ever supplies an IO plate due to the sheer amount of diferent motherboards,
any why the hell would you use it in a kitchen or kids bedroom
found a crazy german!

IMO, i dont like the asthetics and would have left a good chunk of it as normal (side panel just cut a meshed window, leave the top panel)
love...
wonder if an h70 with one fan would fit (with a 140 to 120 converter) hmmmm, still leaning towards cutting an extension hole in the roof and whacking a 240 in :P
imo theres tonnes of room, ample space for water which is what im thinking of :) (i dont use a dvd drive so my hdd is in there rattling about for now!) but i could easily stick the cage back in with no hassle as it is
3 + esata is enough for me personally :) I would preffer the mouse/kb input removed and more usb's but, hey. I'll have to get a hub! (got a tonne of usb things)
Thinking of changing my 280 over summer as im sick of the squealing bug, but that can wait for now. Just need that case!
little update guys :)
Got 2x4gb kit of ram arrive today for £115. (including delivery) Mentally cheap!
and heres a little pic from a week ago:
just waiting on the lian li q08 now!
mmm, ill still wait, have a shop whos got pre order in say they will test an h50 in one for me :)
OTher than that, custom watercooling (240rad in roof) ;)
ok problems.
known issues on other board: p55 doesnt function properly with the intel series 5 3400 usb chipset. Causes iphone and other "mass storage" devices to not work / hang / error.
Only fix able with a specifically targetted bios update.... like gigabyte and asus have done with their...
just thought id also say, im seriously looking at the logi performance MX, after picking up a dinovo edge for cheap, i think it'll go hand in hand.
Can't be fussed with all this "gamer" stuff, so goodbye g15v1 and Kone for me, Hello minimal and sleek.
I got my v1000 modded by chilledpc (can i talk about shops/etc here?) who could do that sort of stuff. (its not that big a job, if the mobo fits sideways. a couple of brackets and a face plate, jobs a goodun)
But making a whole case from scratch, not sure on that :P
I could have a crack at...
