i dont know man. i have never seen anything like that. the pins have to come up to a spec. and the head of a crimper is very simple.they only show the head of the mdcp-x crimper, and like i noted before, it is exactly the same as the $15 waldom i linked to. and it makes perfect crimps on any...
i have done #1 and #2, and i think #2 would be better for you. also, that mdpc-x crimper is $36 plus like $15 shipping. you can get a crimper for $15 that is exactly the same on the business end. i have been using this one for years...
i swapped out my stuff from my ll v1000b plus2 w to my cm sniper last night after seeing the nice snipers here on the last few pages. the parts are a little dusty and the cabling is just half-assed for now. but i am planning to leave a lot of cabling showing after the work that went into...
3x 200mm - front intake, side panel intake and top exhaust
3x 140mm - 1 back exhaust (fits 120mm mounting), 1 on floor of case intake, 1 inside psu intake.
1x 120mm on true, 1x 40mm on chipset
2x 92mm (80mm?) 1 on each video card.
i too recently bought the sniper when it was $99 free ship from newegg, but mine has a mesh side panel with a 200mm fan installed. where did you get the window panel? i havent swapped my stuff over from my v1000b plus2 yet as i am still thinking about what i want to do with it. i am thinking...
i have used this one for around 10 years. it crimps all pins cleanly and easily. has stripper for wires guaged 10 thru 20, wire cutter, and bolt/screw cutter. dont spend more than this for what is essentially a pair of pliers...
holy shit!!! somebody snuck in and dumped some kind of weird vegetation-like crap all over your nice scale!!! you have to be very careful about that, as it could possibly get mixed in with your heatsinks, cocaine and heroin!!!!!
holy shit!! somebody took your motherboard, cpu and the rest of your components out of your silverstone and split!!!
also, maybe the same guy took your cm sniper and put some slightly different plastic crap on the outside!!!
can i use a standard crimper for those pins?
i just bought a sniper and i am sleeving every wire, and changing all the connectors on the case and case fans to black. this case has a huge wiring harness - 2 connectors from each fan (led and power) , and the fan/led controller has 6 power and 6...
for less than $175 usd there are many really good cases. lian li pc p50 armorsuit, lian li pc7 and pc8 series, silverstone rv02, cm sniper, cm atcs 840, lian li b25, etc. i would definitely go with a lian li for years of service, craftsmanship, hundreds of parts for customizing/changing your...
doesnt make a difference. you will run perhaps 10 or 12c cooler at load with it disabled, and possibly get a higher clock speed. but this is just nickel and dime shit.
well thats great news, may just get one me self. if you read even farther down the thread you will see that evga is offering replacement boards to those folks wanting "accurate" vreg temp readings. i still may be in for 1, i dont live or die by vreg temp reporting.
then there is a good chance they will void the warranty for customizing. but since they are phasing out vid cards, maybe they will just send you a refurb without checking too much. (righty right)
i know this is vid cards, but pqi customer service makes diamond look like evga. i had to rma several kits/sticks or ram back in the bh5/tccd days (when 256mb of ddr was $300 +), not one time did they ever honor their warranty. once they emailed me a picture of a stick with a scratch on the heat...
if you look very carefully at the specifications of the boards you have mentioned, you will see that some of them are gigabytes, and a couple are even asus!!!! plse be more careful next time. this fits most of your spex

newegg has a powercolor (yea i know) 5770 1gb on sale for $151. so 2 of these would be way less than a 5870, yet perform as well as one. 2x just about any 5770 would be less than a 5870.
i dont know about you guys, but i just feel tingly all over after reading a concise, to-the-point post by a guy who knows just about everything in the entire world.
the malenky hairs just stand edgewise all over my plott.
