i think he means, "why has no one made a DIY HDD suspension system in their P180 yet?"

i put a VF700Cu on my PCIE MSI 6600gt. i always run it ar its lowest setting through my aerogate 3 (~1500RPM), even during lots of gaming. on a hot summers day (about 30C+) while playing BF2 for a few hours, it runs at about 50-55C. i cant hear it over my other parts, altho thats not saying much bec...

i know it doesnt answer your question, but i got the 160gb because it was only about $10 more and has NCQ

have you considered the coolermaster 730? its got x2 80mm's at the back, but the rest of it seems up to scratch

seasonic is the quietest

i would be tempted to say no. if you look at the pics of a 3.5" HDD mounted in the suspension (in the SPCR review), there isnt much space on either side of the drive, so i dont think a 5.25" drive will fit

alright, thanks for clearing that up for me although it basically means that all fans are bad (which is what i would have expected from an SPCR member ), at least i understand which ones are better than others in certain applications

aha! how i know why ive caused so much confussion, silly me. instead of writing: theres one thing that i dont understand about that. why would a 80/92mm fan at 5v be quieter than a 120mm fan at 5v? i wrote theres one thing that i dont understand about that. why would a 80/92mm fan at 5v be quieter t...

so its best to have a neutral presure (which is what i thought). thus, its best to have either an 80mm exhaust and intake, or a 120mm exhaust and intake. and since i dont think x2 80mm's would properly cool the components at a quiet level, then x2 120mm's would be optimal? or would it be best to hav...

so the best overall fan configuration for the average case, would be a 120mm exhaust fan and an 80mm intake? im just surprised to hear this because most of the time ppl are always saying bigger is better when i comes to case fans...

theres one thing that i dont understand about that. why would a 80/92mm fan at 5v be quieter than a 120mm fan at 5v?

yeah i guess you guys are right. my search for a stylish & quiet case continues!

http://hi-techreviews.com/reviews/AeroEngine%20II/P1.htm what do you guys think of this case? the front 14cm fan looks like a larger version of their 12cm Turbine fans (which are VERY quiet like nexus's). Its rear 12cm fan grill isnt so great, but thats an easy fix. Although it does have a rather op...

brushed aluminium bezel w/ black drive covers. black pannels with silver trip

Thanx for that linky antec rep

if it was black/silver, id already have one

to the Antec Rep: im not sure if im alone in saying this, but ive personally been fed up with beige boxes over the years, and only recently have decent looking black/silver cases been hitting the market. i will personally not by another biege box, and im sure Antec would profit greatly out of having...

arctic silver doesnt dry out or anything, so as long as its still in the tube & feels/looks like it did when new it should be right

excellent case, hate the colour. bring us an all silver or all black version and then they might have a few more sales

wait, your considering a water cooling setup because your northbridge is too hot? why not just blow a 80 or 120mm fan on it from a zalman bracket?

aw
yay!

cant wait for the review for this and the truepower 2.0 (which im assuming will happen eventually?)

nice!

ah ok, my mistake. TT's pushing out that many products i loose track of what they all are

lol, a 1.5A 12v rail?
all i can say, is good luck
would it not be easyest just to replace the whole thing with a very low end sempron based system with everything built into the mobo so that it keeps costs at a minimum, and so you could use the 6200?

but doesnt that TT think use a 100mm fan? isnt that bad news for all of those guys into fan swaps?

After lots of searching and questions on this site, i recieved the parts to make my rig quiet yesturday. It took from about 9am to about 5pm to get it all up and running and how i like it (yes, i am slow :P ). I ordered the following: Coolermaster Aerogate 3-Silver Vantec Nexstar 3-Black Zalman VF70...

aw, that case looked like it might have been half decent once ya cover up the side mesh with sound foam

looks the same as the other 7700Cu LED version, but with a red fan and red painted fins instead... i guess this fatality guy likes red bling

coolermaster & lian li seem to be my best bets then. cant get AMS or similar aluminium cases over here unfortunately
