    Externally Mounting the MCR-220 or MCR-320

    First question: The MCR-320 radiator is way too long to fit mounted on the back of the P150/SOLO case with a radbox. So are there any other options? Are there any good/silent radiator cases I could use to mount it on top of the case? Second question: Even if I just go with the smaller...

    Will I need a fan for the mobo?

    I'm getting the QX6700 (probably go w/ DD or Swiftech setup - waiting to hear a review on Swiftech's new CPU block that should work great with the quad). Even if I don't manage to get to a high OC, I still want it to run as cool and quiet as possible. I will be installing with the Antec...

    QX6700 - alternative to 680i

    I'm trying to figure out what way to go with a motherboard for the Kentsfield. Before I had decided to skip the E6600 and move up to the quad (I do a ton of multi-tasking with graphics rendering and media encoding,) I had decided to get the EVGA 680i to go with my new system. However, the boards...

    Memory for QX6700 & 680i mobo?

    I'm now leaning towards the QX6700 as I do a lot of encoding/graphics work. Only thing is that from what I have read none of the 680i mobos allow you to increase the FSB very much - something like a max of 300-330. Since there is such a limitation on the FSB (and people are still debating if...

    Is Dominator worth the exta $

    I'm almost ready for my first build and first overclocking experience. I'm shooting for a minimum of 3.2 with the E6600 on air, but will be pushing to see how far I can get it while remaining stable. I have almost everything ready, but still having decided on the best RAM choice for me...

    CPU Cooler for the EVGA 680i

    I've been scanning this board for a couple weeks now trying to come up with the specs for my first pc build. I've narrowed everything down now and just have a couple questions left, one of which is still deciding on the right CPU Cooler. Since this is my first build I'm a bit nervous, so I'm...

    BFG 8800GTX w/ Water Cooler or w/o Water Cooler

    I'm planning on building a system with a 30" DELL 300WFP and I'm going to go with the 8800GTX. This will be primarly a work pc and while I will be doing a moderate amount of Photoshop work and 3D rendering, I'm not going to be doing much gaming if any at all on it, so I'm assuming a single card...
