Blue Wave

[V-e-l-o-c-i-t-Y]

Ok got a new case today from somone over at xoxide... its a thermaltake tsunami dream. I am extremely pleased, the first thing i noticed was the bulk of the front door, then the ingenious design that went into every last part... amazing case... but there were some damages... one of my hds decided to smoke me out after i put it together (you can never put an old system in a new case withouts omthing going wrong)... but im getting it rmad so no worries...
at this point its pretty much stock except for the Wire sleeving, and the ccfls installed on it... (please dont comment on the wm... im working on it)

New Wire management...

If you read beowulf in 7th grade (i doubt you probaly read the entire thing)... no im a senior in highschool... were doing a mental analyzation of the characters in the story.... plus its not the story Beowulf were reading... its the story called Grendel by John Gardner... booring reading, tells the Beowulf story from Grenels point of view... anyways new wiremanagement enjoy...

Nice to see another happy Tsunami user

Some tips - to get better cooling remove the side fan grill and get a different one, and people have experianced better temps by dremeling out the back and front grills, since they are kinda restricting...

What are your system specs?

 

[lozaning]

no, we read the whole thing, it was a GATE, AAA class, which is what they call the advanced classes in our school district.


anyways, enough about that. i took of the side panel grill and didnt bother to put a new one on, and temps droped by about a degree or two. i have yet to dremal out the rear exaust due to my lack of a dremel

Are you from San Diego? More specific Santee?

yeah, i just dont have the money to do anything else with this at the moment lol. the hardware needs to be upgraded first before anymore mods, but i do wanna put an lcd monitor in the front top of the front bezel.

Beowulf *sits back, breathes deep, and remember the good old days of high school* ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I like your case. Its clean.

Nice Job... Loving the Tsunami.

Looks good. You do realize that your back fan is pulling air into the case and not exhausting it though, right? Generally you want to bring cool air in the front and exhaust warm out the back.

 

[V-e-l-o-c-i-t-Y]

yeah i had it setup that way cuz i wanted to experiment with airflow in this new case ( i do it for all my cases) and it turns out i get a bit lower temps with the fan like that... but i put it back to normal anyways cuz it was like .5c

Yep Beowulf is pretty typical nationwide as reading for seniors in high school nowadays.

I like what youve done!
