Sounds like SilenX - 70CFM/14dBA, blahblahblah. We all know how SilenX is...

The Western Digital 320GB is pretty close... or the Velociraptor

...which is actually pretty quiet, surprisingly enough.

Very impressive looking drive - faster, quieter, cooler, smaller than the old Raptor. Even faster than our 11-page-thread Spinpoint F1

He also said that one of the fans had such a wobbly center that it clicked.

If you look a few threads up [well, down now]...

They didn't IGNORE anything... they used the same hardware as in all of their other case reviews. You can't fault them for not reviewing the case like YOU wanted them to, with the hardware that YOU think works - they have used the same test system in all of their case reviews to give a pretty good i...

Looks like all family is available, finnaly capacity 1000/750/640/320 price 183/97/93/65 Actually the 750 is somewhat lower density, but still F1. The 640 seems the best bargain overall, but I think the 320 is the best in noise. Speaking of F1, the 2008 season has just begun! Where are the 640 and ...

There's always Asus; they have some proprietary tech that claims to reduce vibrations and make it quieter [but so does everyone these days], so that might be an option... I haven't seen much mention of it around here, so I dunno. Take the risk and tell us how it goes

You're quite a storyteller

Cobra Starship - Bring It (Snakes on a Plane)

Yes, Snakes on a Plane.

Yep, the new Plextor 800 series is just rebrands.

IIRC the 750GB F1 uses 3 x 250GB platters, not short-stroked 334GB platters.

Nobody's seen the 320 and 640GB models around yet, but hopefully they will come soon...

I think the Ultima-90 might be too tall. My Minja gets pretty close to the top of the case. There is about ~1cm of space past the edge of a m-ATX board in this case, so if your card is longer than the board it won't fit.

SCART...

I think the S12 should be fine, depending on how much airflow you'll need. People here seem to be going through Noctua-backlash and saying that they all suck... which is not the case, imo. Really, the choice between S12 and P12 depends on how restrictive the grill is. Pics would help

They need SLi and Crossfire combined on this board so people can Crossfire 2 x 3870X2 and 2 x 9800GX2 and then CrossSLi those into a mega-video card.

Gigabyte makes 1-slot passive HD 2400 cards and maybe HD 2600 too. I have the passive HD 2400 XT in my Fusion next to a TV tuner, sound card, and wireless card and it runs fine.

Worst review evar.

The best HD players for PCs are the LG GGC-H20L and GGC-H10N. The 20L reads HD DVD and Blu-Ray and burns DVDs, and the H10N can burn Blu-Ray as well iirc. The H20L can be had for $300 and the H10N for around $1000 where it's in stock. The H20L is a very good deal, as Blu-Ray only players [not burner...

It's probably too much of a hassle, and plus, how many people out of ALL of their PSU customers will really be interested in doing a fan-swap? It wouldn't be worth the expense, at least in their eyes.

I think that this case is ugly as ballz... just like the Nine Hundred. I also don't like the inside design, and the beige plastic - beige makes me cringe. Two exhausts are also present in other cases, like the Lian-Li PC-A7x. Also, I don't think having so many exhausts really helps, unless you want ...

Only the quad-core Penryns have been delayed - dual-core Wolfdale chips will be out on the 20th of this month.

I just got a Gigabyte HD 2400 XT passive, and it plays back 1080p pretty well... however, it does drop the occasional frame so I would recommend an HD2600 or GeForce 8500/8600. I'm sure if you look around, you can find some passive ones... they have passive 8800GTs, why not 8500/8600/HD 2600?

But why did they have to give it a whole new brand name...? Lian-Li Steel Series or something like that could have worked fine. I think Lancool as a name isn't good. It reminds me of kids with CCFLs and LEDS plastered all over their cases...

Noctua doesn't make a 92mm fan. Well, they have one, but it's not for retail and only comes packaged with the NH-U9F heatsink in tow.

650W is plenty plenty, overkill even. I recommend the Corsair HX620 if you want to be safe, or the HX520. They're both quality quiet units, quieter than the Silencer 750 Quad. They're also modular, which the PCPC unit isn't.

Edit: GeForce 9 series might change some, I'd go with the HX620 to be safe.

Whoops guess I don't read well enough
