I just added the Scyth 100mm blowing right across the NB. It's only 1000 rpm but it still manages to move some air quietly. I dont really want to make any more noise. I would rather have a smaller OC than a louder case.
Right now I have 2 120mm Yate Loons (both running at 6V) on top as an exhaust and a Scyth 100mm KAZE-JYU (1000 RPM not in pics) as an intake on the back. Then I have a 120mm Yate Loon blowing on my hard drives (you can see it in the middle of the case in the pics)
So I built my first rig over the holidays. It's a watercooled Q6600 running at 9x400=3600. So far I have been able to get it to 12 hours Prime95 stable and even then the program didnt error, my mobo threw a SB Temp error. I'm pretty sure I can run this 3.6GHz OC (maybe even a little higher with...
Hmmmm. What I would like to do is to plug this into my fan controller so I can under volt the fans. I dont know what kind of draw my fan controller can handle (anyone know?). Should I just split the sides (i.e wire each side seperately) and use two of the fan headers from my controller?
I have used my mad paint skills to draw a diagram of what I would like to do.
This is a bottom view of my rad with all of the fans and the way I would like to wire them.
I setup all 6 of the fans and it is a wireing mess. There are molex connections everywhere. So I have an idea. What would happen if I used only the three wire. three pin connections and cut the molex connections off? Essentially what I want to do is take all of the red wires and solder them in...
Actually that is exactly what my plan is. I got the WC loop from my wife at xmas and she got the EK GTS block by accident. So I returned it and put the money towards the rest of the system. I will get the correct waterblock when Direct Canada Computers gets them in stock.
Regarding the...
I am going to be trying my hand at a WC setup and I am curious what you guys do to wire all those fans in. There is a level of difficulty though because I am using a fan controller that lets me adjust the voltage of my fans. I figure it would be best if I gave you my setup and you could just...
I just pieced together most of my WC setup from Direct Computers Canada. They had decent prices too (i dont like to ship across the border... too many hassles)
I ended up going with the TJ-07. I was trying to see if I could like anything else but nothing could live up to that beautiful case. I'm just a little more broke because of it. :D
I wanted to revive this thread because of the release of all of the X38s.
Again, what is the best mobo and why?
SIDEBAR: Would you go for an X38 or stick with the P35 if you were buying right now? Is the X38 worth the additional $$$?
I want the ability to move to DDR3 when it gets cheaper but I want to run DDR2 now because it is cheap. Will this work on the Asus Maximus Extreme?
Thanks
My cousin accidently saved over a report that he has been working on for hours. Is there a way to access the report before he saved over it with a blank document? This happened in Word 2007
I am planning my first WC setup and I just want to make sure that I am not missing anything (parts or otherwise). Any advice would be appreciated as well.
My perspective setup (in a TJ07 if it makes a difference):
I plan on running it pump>rad>CPU>NB>GPU>Fillport>pump (is this the way i...
nobody likes you.
What exactly did you do to contribute to the thread? How is what you did any different than what you described?
I didnt create this thread to get people argueing. I created it to get opinions. Nobody ever said this was to be a factual thread. Im contributing because I...
Fine then. If all of you guys are going to be like that.
Of those of you that overclock your Q6600, assuming you had no budget and you didnt need sli, which mobo would you choose and why?
none of the above and all of the above... I dont care. I want to know the be all, end all, for overclocking a Q6600.
Think about it this way. If you had no budget and wanted the best mobo (overclocking, features, etc...) which would you choose and why? and if you really need a qualifier...no...
Wow! thanks for all the replys.
That gives me a lot to go on. Some of you inquired into the length of time I want to keep this processor and the answer would be for a few years (i know that is basically blasphemy around here but I was running a 3500+ until I recently got my hands on a free...
Hi all,
Im looking at upgrading my computer and I was wondering what you guys think the best bang-for-buck processor is right now.
If it helps,
Im looking to OC on air and going with a XFX nForce 680i SLI, some corsair dominator RAM, and a Corsair PSU.
Feel free to tell me if I am...
I am getting an error message that is frustrating the crap out of me. When I try to open various applications i get the message "windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item." This happens when I try to open several...
So what do I do now? do I shut off the computer? should I just hold down the power button until it shuts off then pull the plug in the back then clear the CMOS with the jumpers then reboot into BIOS and set everything up again?
I tried that and it does nothing. it has sat on that screen with no other instructions for about an hour now. when it started running it filled up the box in the middle with white blocks (write ok) and then started to verify the flash memory and said 7FFFF OK then stopped doing anything.
It...
I am force flashing my bios because I have an alienware computer and they wont let you update unless it is their approved update. anyways, I got to one particular screen and now I dont know what to do.:(
This is the screen I am at.
What do I do now?
More specifically for an HP nc6000 laptop. I got it from work because they were throwing it out. The computer works fine it just needs a new LCD screen (it was in a bike accident).
I think I got rid of the trojan by using a program called prevx1 (i was able to get a 30 day trial. It looks as though it has found and deleted it. I do however, still have the msnmessenger homepage hijacker going on. I was doing all of my scanning in safe mode and I disabled windows restore...
I had the same problem but it was my onboard ethernet connection not the modem. I bought a $10 ethernet card and all my problems were solved. See if you can borrow one from a friend and see if that works.
I got a trojan and a homepage hijacker on my laptop that I cant seem to get rid of.
Homepage Hijacker:
It is some MSNmessengerforums hijhacker that I should be able to get rid of if I could use Hijackthis (read below for why I cant)
Trojan:
I run spybot, adaware, and AVG but everytime...
Wow thats comforting. I was pretty worried for a while there. I wasnt planning on using the abit auto-clocking feature as a permanant fix, I just wanted to see what it would do. I will try to get a decent clock without getting my temps too high. I tried the auto-clock again after lapping the HS...
