Saw quite a few pictures of fans being mounted to the HR03 with tiewraps, so i think you can safely assume that you can.

They were 'loud' on low, but they did have a gentle whooshing sound to them making them overall not so bad.

Sound isolating material from the hardware store. Should be cheaper and work just as well.

Perhaps afraid of losing votes somehow?

In any case: what exactly is 'eavesdropping without warrents'? Can they just phonetap you for eternity without just cause, because they feel like it now and get away with it?
Kinda creepy if you ask me, not having a check on these things.

Seems to be the exact same design yeah. But didn't Corsair get it's PSU's from Seasonic, or the other way around?

It's a shame we've gotten to this point. But here we are, with few viable options. I blame the court system and it's lax treatment of criminals....that can be changed. Other people blame the guns....that cannot be changed. I usually blame the criminals themselfs, the faults that were made to preven...

I think you'll have more luck asking for this over at AnandTech or perhaps ask users of [H]ardforum.

I go by buying and then finding out.
That's only doable when you build a lot of machines though.

And this is my beef with US gun laws. Everyone seems to be able to get one, at least for in their home which leads to them being taken outside as well.

That Omaura TF8 looks sexy..

I was planning on a bunch of 120mm fans. Perhaps this is a dumb question - is a fan controller a piece of software or is it found in the BIOS? Or is it part of the fan? :? A fan controller can be both hardware aswell as software. There are integrated BIOS fancontrols (look up: Asus Q-fan) as well p...

To me an SPCR wiki page needs to be accepted by SPCR "staff" otherwise it feels wrong to go further. Most definitely, i think we can all agree on this. If there will be an SPCR wiki I think it should be a complement to the SPCR site with as many links to SPCR as possible. Sometimes it might be hard...

That's pretty neat. I may use that in my next build, thanks for sharing.

In order to get a "carry" permit in this state, you must take training classes, and demonstrate your ability to use a gun. Is there also some sort of psych test? Besides the usual background test, to prevent possible Rambo like scenario's. For me personally: I don't feel safer when i know that peop...

The only reason i'm a supporter of capitol punishment is because i don't want some murdering child rapist living out his life from my tax money. It's not a deterrent at all, but it can be an effective money saver, if people wouldn't also spend many years in death row first. As for armed people inter...

Next a direction needs to be set. Will anyone be able to contribute, only SPCR members, members that are approved? How will articles be structured? Then whoever who wants to/can contribute does. I would think to have anyone who is registered being able to contribute, this way (deliberate) mistaken ...

USB flashing works great, never had a problem.

Got a new camera recently so i was waiting for it before taking my latest shots of this build. And here it is: http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v48/Seraphyn/th_IMG_0033.jpg What you see is the front fan, the HDD and the connectors of the fans + fancontroller http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v48/Se...

Nutcases with guns, what a lovely combination. Over here it's usually nutcases with knives.

2 120mm fans are definitely overkill. 1 at 5v already does everything good, even when overclocking.

As long as it stays in Off topic, what's the problem? From what i noticed from my brief stay here so far is that while people may be bickering in debates sometime, they do not show any of that inside the normal help and discussion of silent computing related topics.

Well, I gotta add one response here because this is truly what I'd wanted to address. The current popular way of thinking is just this, that if we do away with nationalism and religion that we'll all magically come together. The error with this thinking is that religion, as well as nationalism, do ...

The download box is basically a seperate harddrive on the fileserver for downloading purposes to which any and all download programs dump their data. I use RealVNC for remote managing. If you use a windows server and a windows client however, i would suggest using the built in Remote Desktop Connect...

You don't need VRM heatsinks.

The setup is now running so cool and quiet I hesitate to put up numbers. Nobody would believe me. :lol: Massively cooling a Northwood will do that :D I was actually quite shocked when i put my Andy +fan on my Northwood and my other fans on max. Thing just wouldn't heat up at all. With your ducting ...

Only problems i had concerning Corsair RAM sticks were all due to my motherboard not properly supporting the brand. Especially Asus motherboards seem to be picky with what RAM they will accept.

I have a 1,5TB fileserver in a closet across from my room, gotta say it works great. No noise, no hassle and since i have the fileserver on 24/7 anyway i also use it as my download box so i can turn off my PC at night.

The enclosure: http://www.acryan.com/alubox/ACR-HD50138.shtml Any way to silence this? I'm talking about idle noise. I may have a mm of space to stuff something in beween the HDD and the enclosure, but i'm worried it might get a bit hot if i do. Anyone have experiences with it? I already put better ...

Nexus fans at 5v would pretty much cut back your sound output with 60-80% (depending on harddrive noise and PSU). The standard Tricool fans in the p18x aren't silent by a long shot.

If you have modding hands you could make a duct of some sort and thus exhausting the air from the card. I made one for my 8800GT untill i had my Accelero S1 and it worked great. You could also open up the PCI slots and suspend a fan blowing outwards, that should work just as good, or put a fan at th...
