Well, I've worked it out. I'm not gonna use a fan controller in that slot. With the case comes a 5.25" drive bay, which I'll be spacing up with some pads and then use a Silverstone TS06 (133mm wide and 17mm high, more or less like a regular ODD tray) to put a slim ODD in. With that Silverstone...

For a normal ODD tray, but the tray only. As you can see, there is a cut out piece of metal for the button too, but that won't work. It is the Lan Gear Da Box 100. I know it doesn't give bang for the buck quality wise, but at the moment it is the perfect case for me in terms of dimensions...

I know it sucks, but I don't seem to have many options here. I need the fan controller to fit where normally only the optical drive tray would be. So I don't have a full 5,25" bay available, but just like half the height.

Thanks, it looks like it is. :) It puzzled me a bit how I would ever get it in, the only thing I could imagine is sawing off the LED-part and turning it around to be able to fit it in. When I checked back with the picture, it turns out that I'm not the only one thinking that. If you look...

For my new case, which is the same as that in the picture below, I'm looking for a slim fan controller to fit in that 5,25" bay. Now, the thing that the owner of the case below uses, looks like a fan controller to me. If so, could anybody tell me what the name of that fan controller is? Haven't...

Have read a lot on the subject, last days. But really a lot. :P I now understand the basics and can read most articles from NWavGuy without thinking about what he said and rereading two or three times. So... in the end I ordered a JDS ODAC XL and O2 at Head 'n Hifi, the EU supplier. That'll do...

Does it happen too if you switch the jack to the other connector? And are you using the rear or front audio?

The impedance of the IEM's is 28 ohms, so if my quick calculation is correct, the output impedance I'm looking for should be <3,5 ohms. I've looked into the JDS O2 as well as the Fiio E7 and they will both do. The big reviews from NWAVGuy show that the JDS is more accurate, but of course more...

Thanks! My gaming is next to nothing... I don't even need any sound at all for games like WoW, by the way. I'm more focused on watching movies. For some reason my family doesn't seem to like it when I turn on my woofer at night. ;) Good to know that a pc sound card and high impedance don't go...

Hi all, I'm in the process of buying some professional in-ears, in first place for on stage, but I don't see why I wouldn't be able to use them as a regular "headphone". As I only have an onboard sound card (Asus P5E), that will probably be the bottleneck. So... I think I need to replace it...

You might. The PCI-e lane is very close to the socket. I can't give a precise heads up, I only know that you can use that lane at the Gigabyte. You could try to estimate the distance between the socket's midpoint and the PCI-e lane and compare that to the Gigabyte. The Big Shuriken's diameter is...

I've recently built a system with the Q11 and the Big Shuriken. That was on a Gigabyte A75N-USB3 with a 3870K CPU. No problem at all. You can buy an Asrock mobo aswell, but expect the Big Shuriken to block the PCI-e lane. That is not the case with the Gigabyte version. The only huge problem...

I guess that this'll do as well, right? And no, I'm not German, that's just the only place I can buy that combo and get it delivered within a week. ;) I'm Dutch actually, but that's not the point. Just don't speak a lot of German to me, expecting me to understand it all, haha. ;) Anyway, I...

That's not much at all! I've never worked with that kind of psu, would like to give it a try. What adapter do you use? And btw, has a closed loop water cooling set crossed your mind? Especially with that self made plate, you could have made some holes for the tubes and placed the rad outside...

What a nice build! :) Looks very clean with that small power supply. Is that pico-psu (150W?) really able to give the components enough power at full load?

Hi all, My current self-built pc is about 4 years old right now and I'm looking for a replacement as my motherboard has stopped working. For my new room, I want to try something new and small. My current pc specs: Asus P5E, E8400, 2x2GB DDR2, HD4870, enveloped by a Antec 900 case with a CM...
