    Phanteks Enthoo Primo, ASUS Rampage iv Black Edition build

    Here is the "Gigabyte Xtreme Gaming Engine" software for overclocking, Controlling the LED's etc. I will not be testing in eco mode for obvious reasons. "Gaming mode" clock speeds @ 1759 Mhz (1898 boost), and memory @ 10206 Mhz will be used as the standard speed in the benchmarks. And "OC mode"...

    BOOM! Everything disconnected, And parallel tubes cut through. One down. Cleared out. I'm kind of shocked how easy it was to remove both of these. Hard times ahead. reconnecting the new card turned out to take a lot longer than it did to take these out. I just wanted to get it in there...

    It's here! All that copper is heavy 3 display port, 1 HDMI, And one dual link DVI connector in the back, and 2 more HDMI connectors on the other end of the card to run a passthrough to the front of your case to easily hook up your VR headset. The coolant inlet/outlet is some kind of...

    Man Arrested in Japan for 3D-Printed Guns

    wow! a 6 bullet barrel? I can only fit one at a time down my firearms, fascinating. Also why is our "obsession" with firearms a morbid one? This chick needs to do her research or stfu.

    I reused the wires for all 3 LED's and soldered on new 3 mm red and white LED's I got from frozencpu. Just pay attention to which wire goes to which post on the LED.

    Titanfall DLC Plans Now Revealed

    I've watched many reviews where they explicitly said that they were not going to nickel and dime people, And that it would be a complete game on launch, So much for that shit.

    It's to provide extra power to the fans if the motherboard 4 pin cannot supply enough. I don't know if it is just a crappy hub, But I cannot control the fans connected to it through fan xpert 2. I just let them run wide open. Now the 8 fan hub I got for my radiator fans works just fine.

    Thanks mate. Was'nt sure how well it would be received since it wasn't a full custom build, But people seem to like it :D And pictures don't do it justice. The hoses and lighting look much better in person.

    Yeah, it's the tinted plastic parts on the outside. Make sure you unlatch the catches from the inside so as not to break them.

    If you know how to solder it's easy. Just use the 2 prong connectors from the original strips, Solder and sleeve the black wire to black, And red to red. Theres 2 3 mm LED's inside of the power switch as well. The hardest part was taking the lenses off without breaking the tabs off.

    Thx mate :D HERE are the led strips i used. There doesn't seem to be any more available from the U.S. but there are from China. Make sure you get the 60 SMD version, because i tried the 30 SMD's and there are not enough LED's to light up the diffuser. It was so dim you could barely see it even...

    We all know what a phenomenal piece of garbage COD Ghosts is, And to add to the heap of garbage, Today I found that crossfire is almost impossible in Ghosts. Tried it out, And for the first 30 seconds or so with everything maxed out, Everything seemed to be going fine. Then came the massive...

    Yeah, I love it, The only reason im getting vdroop is that im stressing it to the max with 13 case fans 2 HDD's 1 SSD, An overclocked 4960x, 1.65v RAM, 2 overclocked 290x's, Case lighting, And a pump. It's super quiet, And also has a mode where the fan will not even spin up until it's put under...

    Thanks :D coming right up :D Had to drain the loop to get the cards in. I put them in after the RayStorm block. After hooking up the drain hose with the quick release, Opening the valve, And taking the fill cap off of the res. the whole system drained in like 20 seconds. There was some...

    The HeatKiller GPU block for my 290x's These things are damn heavy, And awesome build quality too. The back side shows some fine German mill work, And some standoffs. The finish on the contact surfaces does have a reflection, But its not a mirror finish. Ready to get to...

    So heres what came in each box, Nothing terribly exciting. Side by side. The PCB. I also received these Heat Killer water blocks from FrozenCPU Monday, Got the last 2 they had in stock D: But before these go on I tested each of them individually, And was able to get a 10475...

    I was running the core clock @ 1200 and the ram @ 1600 or 6400MHz effective. Any more on the core would cause artifacts, And I was afraid to push the ram any more. I also had my CPU @ 4.6 GHz to help with the physics tests. Does your overclock run @ 4.5 constantly? I leave speedstep enabled...

    Get Ready for the Next Windows Operating System

    They just stopped distributing new windows 7 keys like what? a week ago? Maybe they should stick to an OS for more than a year or two, And give people what they want instead of forcing a bunch of iphone looking crap onto pc people. I hope the real start menu makes a comeback, not the new one...

    There seems to be a boundary around 4.6 GHz! It's not necessarily a temperature boundary either. Temperature does play a part because you have to bump the voltage up so high. Initially getting to 4.5 Ghz was quite easy. It's stable as a rock when running Prime 95. Moving up past 4.6, It...

    I ordered a couple of those 12" CCFL light bars from Frozencpu. They seem to be real nice quality. Installed one along the right side of the opening and one in the top next to the radiator shining down. The ROG connect panel comes with a bay adapter that allows you to mount it in the...

    Big update! Lots of photos, And I have it up and running. Leak testing, I couldn't help but hook up the Photons LED during the process. Probably should have jammed it full of towels, But I was pretty confident i had secured all the fittings. There were tons of micro bubbles in the...

    Almost as good I think, Though they do use some plastic parts that you have to be a little easier on unlike the Lian Li. The brushed aluminum on this case is fantastic! Also the painted interior is a plus. I almost went with the Lian Li PC-A76 because of the painted interior, But the layout...

    Worked on soldering in the new LED's The LED strips along the top and front are taped down with a thin strip of masking tape, and are connected with a small 2 prong connector. They project backwards onto a light diffuser, Which has a thin strip which is what you see through the plastic lens...

    The radiator looks damn nice! Paint job is perfect. The fins are pretty close together. Not even close to fitting in the bottom of the case. Top mount it is. I have one of these to control the 8 radiator fans with one header on the motherboard. The Photon with the BitsPower mod...
