leg.
Antec slk3700-bqe is my pick. They usually sell for around 70-80$, but best buy has them on sale right now for 40. They are way high quality, great design, cooling isn't bad, and very very quiet. They come with a 350wpsu made by antec, and are set up for 120mm fans, and comes with an Antec fan to us...

power down hard drives?
do you guys think it is a good idea to set the hard drives to power down? I currently have this set to happen using both the windows option and the motherboard option. I figured this will increase hard drive life and possibly lower sys temps at idle. If it is a good idea, how long should I let it wa...

great setup! i hope to be building one like it very soon (but probably not soon enough!) The only thing i questioned was having the two 74gb raptors. I'm a big fan of the raptors, and if i had the cash, every hard drive in my computer would be a raptor. I think it is best to have one hard drive comp...

This may be a bit off subject, but I have been in the market for a new sound card, for home recording. I can't find a single brand or type that is what i want (which mainly consist of a 5.25" front interface with 4 inputs). Does anybody on SPCR record, or have a favorite sound card they think i migh...

I use an Antec SLK3700-BQE, and I absolutely love it. I haven't been around the P180, and I am sure it is a very nice case, but I am confident at this point that when I build another PC, I will use Antec, and most likely use the exact case I have now. I would say that any Antec product you get you w...

do voltage increases help that much? I have been doing a series of tests and benchmarking, and the voltage seems to have little to no effect on what I have been using to create benchmarks with, but it has quite a difference on how hot my cpu runs. My Bus clock is currently set at 187 (default is 166...

Overclocking: What is best?
I have an XP 2500+ that I have been overclocking for sometime, but I have just added an intake fan to my Antec slk3700-bqe, and really want to see what I can get out of my machine. I use an Albatron KX400-8xv pro MB, so overclocking options are great. My hardware monitoring program tells my that in ...
