earthwatts 380's have clicky fans and coil buzz.... just so you know. I had 3 of them. All sucked.

me scared.

all earthwatts have a buzz. Ive had three to date and they all buzzed like bitches.

As far back as I can remember, i'm pretty certain thermalright has never included a fan with their heatsinks... so no surprises there... actually.

duhhhhhhhhh. p180 doesn't really vibrate. Its too heavy. Top and bottom harddrive chambers both have rubber gromets which are 99% as effective [in the p180] as suspending them would be.

All things considered.... we still can't be friends til you learn some cable management skillz

sexy!!

now all you need is a new desk for your mouse lol. oh, and how dare you remove the usb goose lamp. Sacrilege!

Messiest. Case. Ever.

I'm sure your mother would be horrified if she knew what you were doing with computers. hehe.

I like this case a lot. Plenty of room for a GTX. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811112138 if you're not running SLI you could probably get by on the 650i ultra board. Sure, its green, but, the chipset runs WAY cooler [like around 40C without a fan] and the board draws much le...

For me its quite simple... noisy computers seem to occupy too much of my attention. I find myself too interested in why they're loud or screechy or what-not. I absolutely hate computer vibrations and poorly made fans. Some harddrives sound horrifically unnatural to me. For me, computer silencing is ...

Well, the DS3 does, so I"m 99% sure the DS3R will.

probably a complete waste of time/brain cycles... An extra fan is just more noise, too. SB can run super duper hot without a worry in the world.

i'm pretty sure all these electrical noises everyone hearing is coming from their power supplies. Time to isolate the issues, gentlemen. Take your psu out and listen to it with your ear up to it.

Eh, that may or may not be true. My samsung drive is actually cooler for being in the quiet drive

it sounds more like some sort of exotic paste you put on seaweed crackers.

that looks like a 120mm fan to me lolz. even if its --only-- 100mm, I still think it'll sell like hot cakes at a, erm, yeah. looks way leet. hopefully there will still be room to mount a ninja :-O

Gigabyte I find to be a much more dependable and less frivolous company than Asus. The deluxe series also comes with a plethora of "useless shit" that invariably drives the price up. Also, the p35 ds3 is apparently much more energy efficient than the p5k, p5w, etc. Gigabyte all the way. I had tons o...

.... and the fact that the hooks break off on the side panels. I did a poll a few weeks ago. 12 out of 40 people had broken hooks on their p180/2. Also, even if you were to cut up the p150 and decide you didn't like it, I'm sure you could still return it without them noticing.... not that I support ...

the PSU cage is also completely pointless... in case you didn't figure that out.

you don't have to get this case. albeit, there are not a lot of options I think if you want to use a gtx8800. I think maybe the nsk6500 would fit it [plus all cases that you that design] or like a centurion model.

what you need todo is turn 5 harddrives into 2 somehow :/

will reach fine... dunno if youll like the neoHE. if you get unexpected blue screens of death, you can probably attribute it to poor power from the Neo.

my killawatt is saying 3W for a seasonic S12 revA.

just to let you know, that, whenever you use your DVD drive the case is going to rattle like crazy. Any v1000 will tell you the same. And, I dont think its the kind of rattle you can fix very easily. So that means when watching DVDs, installing software, or formatting windows, you case is goiing to ...

cut it up!! cut it up!!!!!

I bet the DVD drive shakes the hell out of it

S.SubZero: is that in regards to the optical drive being in use or just the system being on?

*bump*

nexus and yate loon are not the same fan. the nexus runs at 1000rpms@12v, and can not start reliably below 6v. The yateloon runs at 1350@12v and can be modded down to 5v. the internal mechanics of the fan are probably very similar [same manufacturer] You can get a novibes III from frozencpu.com. The...

e6300@ 1.125v 2.4ghz, 400x6, 1600mhz FSB......... stable as stable can be.
