    [H]ardOCP & ASUS GeForce GTX 660Ti DirectCU II Giveaway

    Calm, cool and collected is the way to handle the situations that'll be thrown at this card. It's nice to know that the direct contact heat pipes are whisking away all that is unholy about most systems (heat). Keeping down the temps will let me up the clocks and that means yummy goodness for my...

    Shot beer out my nose when watching. I'll wait for the 3G version, "no screen, no hard-drive and no wheel"... that's funny stuff. Great production quality!

    Gigabyte ga-ep45-ud3P motherboard

    Mounted my Tuniq sideways, pulling from bottom exhausting towards the top. UD3P mounted in a CM RC-690 with two top fans blowing out, rear fan also exhaust. Under load won't pass 40c with cpu fan set to medium speed. Very cool temps, happy with results. HS base barely grazes the top caps. but...

    I posted here back in Nov. asking for the advice of the knowledgeable on a new build. Thanks to all who responded. I went a bit over budget but I feel I was able to get more for my money at the time of purchase. All items were purchased during the holiday period between Thanksgiving and...

    Well then, it's settled. The GTX260 it will be. I am waiting until the morning to decide on 192 or 216. I'm in the South East U.S. and it's late. All the turkey from today is really kickin' in, so I must go pass out on the couch. I really appreciate the help guys. This will be my 7th build and...

    Will gladly provide, tiraides. Thanks again for your input. Hey HardwareGuru thanks for posting. The card looks great, only it says Thanksgiving Day Special. I'm not moving on anything until tomorrow. I'm kinda banking on Black Friday specials. Hope I don't regret it... As for the NV-690, um...

    The link I posted for the case was wrong, it was priced with a 500w PS. For just the case, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119137 much better. I will continue to run the 32 bit until 64 has more support. Until then I feel 2.5GB usable is better than 1.5 GB usable. Are...

    Thanks for the call on the PSU. I'll check out deals on the new cards. Are the 9x00 series still good, or are they as much yesterdays new as AGP? By the way, I am running Window XP Pro SP 3, 32 bit. Plan on keeping it until 7 gets here then... we'll see.

    Thanks for quick response. Spot on with the CPU cooler. They both look the same and I didn't consider it an issue. Like the Xigmatek though. Monitor it HP w2207 displaying at 1680x1050 and it's topped out @ 60hz refresh. All I've read says this case needs modular PS but I would be willing to...
