Sounds feasible, though it's hard to judge without better numbers or pictures. There are a lot of impressive micro-ATX mobos these days, and one of those would allow an unobstructed intake of roughly 75mm by 240mm. How much heat are you planning to make? Thanks to all replies, I plan to put fullsiz...

Hi, I will be eventually building a PC into a wooden chest that I bought from local antique-warehouse. It's nicely sized, so that i can fit proper ATX mobo and PSU on the bottom of the chest with few centimeters to spare. It has also some room in height being ~23cm top to base. Problem is that I rea...

Eppu Normaali - Murheellisten laulujen maa

I could just do it with diodes or resistors, but it draws so much power i would need several in parallell. Id also like it adjustable, at least at 12V it makes a difference of 25mHz on the GPU core from 550 to 575, stock is 400mHz. Judging by this statement, You could easily build something with tr...

Much thanks to Newisys for the opportunity to examine this power supply . Not to be picky, But it's not a power supply :) Too bad that it didn't work that way you wanted. It would have been too good... I'm also planning a computer where this kind of solution would be nice, but if I still need to in...

Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe

Hats off for us crazy Finns :roll: 2) make some kind of soft slices, that touch each side of the computer; to make a sort of barrier for the air. This is better for me. But this still makes it difficult to move computer in and out of the case. It's probably needed to have a removable upper slice, be...

Just wanted to let You know that even that I'm total newbie to W/C, I haven't done anything yet, I can comment that You are looking the list from the wrong end. Just check what that site has to say about Gyrox and than You can clearly see that best options are at the to of the list, not at the botto...

Hi. I think that I need to further explore the OS, as I'm running a preinstalled XP home. Have to find out what can be done from there. I would really like to get that SpeedSwitchXP working, but my expression is (was) that it's needed to have a mobile CPU, as most of the celerons in cheap laptops us...

Hiya fellows once again. A month ago I purchased a HP/Compaq nx9010 laptop with 2.6GHz celeron CPU for my self before I moved abroad. I had to get a laptop because of its easy transportability and there was no way that my silenced desktop would have survived the journey. I have made so many little t...

I sent that link up there somewhere that is a German firm, http://www.alutronic.de/e/indexe.htm. They have sales rep in Holland...

Just read that voodoo article, WOW. Couple of weeks ago I had some time to do what I had seen done by Ralf. I didn't get nearly as neat as Ralf her, but I think i did allright. I had only one problem, my HDD lies on the bottom of a case and folding the cable to there was a killer, especially when th...

Ill write them a mail and ask if they could do this article in english, and point them to here, where are lots of people intrested in this kind of stuff...

I'm not sure about cost, and you really can't flatten them, at least not without making it hard for the fluid and vapor to flow in that part of the pipe. I found out that there are allready flat heatpipes made, here . Dont know anything else about it but it should be possible to use those in direct...

Heres some other threads on this topic:

Totally passive watercooling? Anyone tried it?

PC watercooling with Passive radiator Article

And lastly something that gives lots of thoughts

"PC Water Cooling with a Passive Radiator" @overclockers.com

I was just cruising through my local dealers homepages and found out that they have stocked Nexus PSUs :) and the thing that made me most happy was the fact that it is the cheapest 300W PSU at 47.70€(~54$) in their stock :!: Just wondering if I should go and grab one of them before they realize thei...

I have KT3 ultra-ARU, which is basically same board, and it won't go lower than 1.70V with 1600+ palomino. And I do have the latest BIOS, 5.7 if my memory serves me right . Updated it just coulpe of weeks ago...

Yes I was talking exactly the same kind of thing that is done in that article. I have cutted the grills off long time ago. It seems that I have to do that next week when I have time and energy to do such a thing:) I'll write back and let people know how it went, and maybe take some pics of the progr...

I have Chieftec dragon midi case (DX-01WD) like many others in here. I was just wondering if anyone have blocked the airvents in frontbezel and cutting the bottom of the bezel open. This way there would not be direct way for sound to escape. Main goal would be to silence casefans hum as I cant turn ...

What I meant was that I have only one HDD, which temps are between 37 and 41C depending on how heavy is the CPU load and therefore case temps.

I don't like my temps at all. I have four 80mm Papst fans in my chieftec midi case, one at CPU, two intakes and one exhaust, running at ~8-9V. And I have modded my 350W Enermax with 92mm Papst@5V. Temps are: Ambient: ~23C CPU: ~51/60C Idle/load Palomino 1600@stockspeed Case: 38-42C HDD: 37-41C sandw...

This found in here . Now all i have to do is to find out if theres a dealer in Finland, or shippingcosts to here anyway. And I also vote for solution that gives you most time to be with your kid, as I have an 7 months old daughter myself I wonder what the shipping to Sweden... <snip> Illbruk, the ma...

Just a quick note on grounding your HDD. There are Two groud wires in powercable, and half of of pins in IDE-cable are connected to the ground, so I dont see any point of adding separate groundwire to it. This has been discussed here plenty of times. And make sure you ground your drives to the drive...

I've done similar setup than what Aphonos here is saying. I have fan attached to Alpha PAL8045 blowing into duct and out from back of the case. The duct is made out of this . I bought it from local store, it's not really cheap but its such a short that it isn't much of a problem. 30cm costed me abou...

I think that there aren't ready products like that because most of people don't have that kind of setup. It would be easy to make though. About four components per channel, resistor, potentiometer and two transistors. Decent pcb could be made out of stripboard. Biggest problem would be finding nice ...

I was thinking of doing something like this. http://www.sunpoint.net/~marvin_74/PSU.gif I would add second fan to PSU to blow air into it to the fronside as in GamingGod's link . Has anyone tried anything like that? I would mount both of fans outside the PSU to minimize obstruction inside. Just wond...

Read this article here in SPCR

I opened my own Enermax PSU without removing any stickers.

There is no way that anyone could see that I opened mine, if I put back original fans as I didn't mess with anything else.

*kicking myself for buying a MoBo that does not undervolt*

Thanks, have to install that this evening, after I get home...
