    Intel Haswell i7-4770K IPC and Overclocking Review @ [H]

    zeusapollon n00bie, 3 Months Status: zeusapollon is online now Repasted the TIM again, took my time, and now the temps are back at "normal" again. You're right, it might be that OCCT with linpack and AVX that did make the TIM uneven or something like that. AT least it was when I started...

    Intel Haswell i7-4770K IPC and Overclocking Review @ [H]

    Have my cpu started dying on me? Overclocked my 4770k, delided, with Kraken X60 up to 4.4 ghz which needed 1.32 vcore to be stable. The temps were good and topped at around 70 degrees in Prime95. After this I have been trying to reach 4.6 ghz, and was stable (tested 2-3 hours) stress...

    Best possible airflow in my NZXT Phantom 630 case?

    Thanks for you inputs. One other think that came to mind was instead of removing the HDD bays in the bottom, instead removing the middle HDD bays, and have a 140mm fan blowing directley at the graphic cards from the side. Then I could just remove the fan tilt bracket solution. But would it be...

    Best possible airflow in my NZXT Phantom 630 case?

    Have checked the H220, but every review I have read, benchmark the X60 as cooler than the H220. Though they are pretty much the same.

    Best possible airflow in my NZXT Phantom 630 case?

    Hello. Have thought about how to set up the fans and the watercooler Kraken X60 radiator in my NZXT Phantom 630 case for best possible airflow. After reading around and thinking about positive vs negative airflow this is what I have come to: Does this seem like a decent setup, or...

    Help with case airflow + push/pull?

    That does make sence, think I will go with the back fan as exhaust then. Thank you for your helpful support.

    Help with case airflow + push/pull?

    But if the rear fan is set as intake instead of exhaust, won't that help to pull cold air in under the radiator and pushed out through the top, and still keep a pretty good airflow? Or will it still be better for the rear fan also to exhaust air aswell, like the radiator in push pull?

    Referance or non-reference cards in SLI?

    Not so worried about the dust and noise, was more temperatures that worried me. As I'm getting the NZXT Phantom 630 case, with a 200mm side fan blowing air on the cards, and very good airflow in general, will two cards like Gainward GTX 780 windforce X3 keep the temperatures lower than the...

    As you mentioned you would go for an air cooler for the cpu. Here are one of the reviews of the NZXT Karken X60: Theese tests tell that this cooler make the cpu run around 11 degrees cooler than the Coolermaster 212 EVO air cooler on stock clocks. At 4.6ghz it runs 15 (!) degrees cooler at load...

    DocSavage: Actually wasn't aware that RAID 1 also doubled read speed, so that is definatley a thing to consider. Read speed is the most important of a system/game disk of course. Warrior: That sounds reassuring. Then maybe 2 X 256GB SSD in RAID 0 won't be such bad solution:) 2 X 512 would be...
