Surprise from my Xigmatek...

[fubar569]

...both of the Scythe Slipstream fans i installed finally died...one after the other...

sadly enough i did not notice this!

the surprise comes in when the Xigmatek is cooling my Q6600 completely passively and keeping temps WELL within acceptable established guidelines...

i don't know whether to be pissed, happy, or smack myself for not checking my stuff out on a more regular basis...

1. Be happy nothing happen to you pc
2.Now smack yourself for not checking
3.Sh!t happens, dont be to hard on yourself
4.Find a good replacement fan for your Xigmatek
I use GELID Solutions Silent 12 PWM for my XIGMATEK Dark Knight-S1283V

try these, pretty cheap for their CFM and DBA

two low speed Yates from Petra's. They last forever.

thanks for the suggestions...

i do know i'm not taking a chance with these scythe fans again...though when they did work they flowed some nice air while being relatively quiet...when you have both of them die within a year it's time to switch brands...
