    Need advice on my plan to add fans and fan filters to cool my case more

    The primary goal here is to cool the case better, it gets kind of toasty. The secondary goal is to filter the air with fan filters. Heres my case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811144109 The computer has 1 120mm outtake fan, a liberty psu with an outtake fan and a video card...

    Foxconn bites the dust....

    are u possative it was the motherboard? You tested everything else right?

    Some questions about matx build components.

    First of all, good choice on the Foxconn. I've tried the Biostar, the DFI and then finally the Foxconn before i did not have problems. It is an excellent overclocker(much better than either Biostars I had) and has had no problems since day 1. Although the Bios is kind of a hassle to update...

    The Unofficial List of Good mATX Motherboards (Overclocking and Not)

    Hey I have to say... from my experience these past two months, the Biostar has proven to be a really bad board. The first one had broken ethernet(a known problem with the rev 1.1 boards), it was also not a very good overclocker because the Vcore voltage fluctuated like a mofo. The second one I...

    any other motherboards that can reach 270 fsb easily besides RS482 and Tforce?

    My RS482 board had restarting problems, and I've now gone through two Biostar boards with defects. First one had broken NIC, and the second one had a broken ram slot. So now, I don't know what to do. What are my other options?

    im thinking about doing this thoughts and idea

    I dont know anything about that case, but you should tell ppl your price limit on the cpu and graphics card. And why the 7800? Get the 7900 gt and I would choose evga because you get a life time warranty and overclocking and changing the heatsink does not void this, unless theres physical...

    DFI RS482 Infinity in stock (US)

    my new 450w fsp came, and am running on it now. All the rails seem solid, and for 50 bucks! I was kinda worried because it was so cheap, but it looks like they made a solid psu without all the pretty sleaving, leds, and colors so it's cheap. We'll see if it reboots... I'm kinda stuck with...

    well i just upped my southbridge, and northbridge(would northbridge matter?) volts by .1 and am testing it out. will let you know what happens. Also, my cpu voltage went from a steady 1.39 volts to fluctions between 1.36-1.37. If that means anything lol... UPDATE: It didn't do anything...

    DFI RS482 Infinity in stock (US)

    ya its reported as 1.14v when it should be 1.2, but i remember i tried rasing this on the other board, with no noticable improvement at all. I do not think this is the problem, although you could try it. I think I only tried raising it .1 volts. Also, I'm lookin to buy this power supply...

    DFI RS482 Infinity in stock (US)

    FUCK! It still has the problem. It just reboots less frequently now. It's rebooted twice since I posted. One last thing before i rma the power supply, is im gonna reformat it, and install as little drivers as i can, and see if it reboots then.

    motherboard just came and now i got it overclocked to 2.4 with 1.4 volts on opteron. Same settings as with other motherboard. I will let you know if the reboots have stopped. So far, it looks promising. The cpu voltage on this board seems much more steady. Before it reported 1.37 volts now...

    DFI RS482 Infinity in stock (US)

    Yeah, I wouldm't trust that its actually fixed for atleast a couple weeks. I mean when I ran mine on stock, I didn't even know it had a problem at stock, because it didnt reboot at stock until 3 weeks after I had it. That's what threw me off, because I thought it was like settings I did when I...

    DFI RS482 Infinity in stock (US)

    uh what do u mean by lockups? Do you get errors in memtest? Because i just get rebooting, with no errors or blue screens. Are you getting windows errors? Or do u get rebooting that occurs as if someone hit the reset switch? Also, the problems have been with the Enermax Liberty psus, so it...

    Good psu that's same size as Enermax Liberty?

    Good psu that's same size as Enermax Liberty?

    Now im lookin at the Antec TruePower 2.0 550W. Between the Seasonic S12 430W or the TruePower 2.0 which is best?

    Good psu that's same size as Enermax Liberty?

    hmmm... the 12 rails look a bit weak on the seasonic actually. Do you think its enough? My enermax has 22A rating on the 12 volt rails, and the seasonic has only 15 and 14. Think itll be fine?

    Good psu that's same size as Enermax Liberty?

    ok, I'm only talking about with the DFI Infinity RS482 motherboard. I'm not saying the psu is bad. It seems to have problems with the RS482 board. see the other posts about the RS482 for more information.

    ya its definately not that either the motherboard or psu are bad exactly. The psu seems perfectly normal temp. I mean i dont get errors in anything ive tested, and it runs seemingly normal, except that it restart randomly. Right now im trying to figure out what psu to buy thats the same size...
