Where are you? There's always some place that can ship internationally.

Try firing it up without the GPU, with the monitor connected to the motherboard in case you have a duff card. There's also a slim chance that your monitor doesn't like the ~VGA resolution of your motherboard bios (not likely, but possible on some lower-end LCDs), but in that case it's more likely to...

Moving swiftly on- if you right-click on the product page and select properties, you can then copy-paste the actual link instead of going through the frames. i.e. http://www.thermalright.com/a_page/main ... 3_plus.htm

They look delicious.

Hmm, maybe grilled with a little balsamic vinegar and some crushed peppercorns, and served on a bed of squid-ink tortellini?

Awesome song.

P.s. Wow, 100 pages!

If that was a question, then no and yes (in that order): The power switches these days are momentary, so when you click it this adapter will send the 'on' signal to both supplies. If one is already on, I don't believe that it would turn on a second supply, added afterwards. But then again, you'd nev...

Erm, ok... :shock: Just for my own amusement (and before the lock :wink: ) when you say "X800GTO with Thermalright HR-03" I take it you mean just sort of sitting beside it? Otherwise why all this nonsense? That's almost like lying, isn't it? Hey everyone... http://www.planet-familyguy.com/pfg/images...

I couldn't possibly comment...
Well, Ihavemyownideasabout thissequenceofevents.
But it wouldn't be appropriate to spell them out on a poll-by-poll basis

n.b. I cant believe those spammers that put different links in every word- it takes ages!

The most important difference is that the -SE only takes 2 sticks of RAM, as opposed to the 4 you can use with the other one.

How about this then? NCIX It says 'In Stock', but that's probably just a marketing ploy by those stoopid eediots at Thermalright... Or you could try this one Some Canadian place They also say they have it in stock, but you know what those crafty Canadians are like Or even this one Linky Hmm... I thi...

I have the 800rpm Noctua 120mm fan, and it's amazing. At 12v, there is almost no noise at all (although the ambient here is probably 26-28db). With the inline resistor that accompanies the fan, it was like watching a tv on mute- you can see the movement, you can feel the airflow, but there's no way ...

No, of course not- those amateurs!

Maybe it's something to do with it being a fairly new product, and hugely popular too...
Still, I bet they know what the Caps Lock button does

This is the cheapest I've seen them for recently- this is the 330w, but it should probably bo ok for your system (can't guarantee anything, maybe someone else can confirm for a similar setup?) Hope this helps- the extra few pounds are well worth it! edit: Just remembered, if you keep an eye out on ...

Thanks, my TV doesn't have an option for screen sizes- it's just a cheapy Bush from Argos. I was looking into fiddling with the timings in the NVidia control panel, but since it's RC1 I'm running the drivers are worse than useless; they won't even let me overclock :? Once I upgrade to the full versi...

Hmm...
If you had this blowing down, probably onto the same area as the rear case fan, the low air pressure caused by the exhaust should actually improve airflow through the PSU, much like blowing across the end of a straw to raise the liquid inside, shouldn't it?

Basically, you dont. You've almost certainly got a PC-Input port on the back of your tv, that takes a normal stereo mini-jack from the Green speaker connector on your PC to the tv. Not to hijack the thread or anything, but I'm trying to get this to work on my own new 32" HD-LCD with Vista (RC1). I'm...

Again, this won't help the cause, but it should sort out the symptoms...

I'm not sure if there's an updated version for 8800 series, of if you even need one. Useful though...

Well, here is half of one...

edit: ...and here is the other half!

I don't have an 8800, but is there not a way to cap the fps? Like maxframestorenderahead=xx or something? If it's quiet-ish at 90fps, then cap it at say 100fps. You can't see more than about 30fps anyway, but due to sync issues many people can see the difference up to about 70fps. After that it's al...

Looks great- what is it :?: Obviously it's a P180, with 2HDDs, what looks like a 420W(?) OCZ psu with far too many cables, and an Arctic Cooling something-or-other on a (probably) NVidia card. You also have a sound card of unknown origin (stickers look like Creative or Philips), and either a TV card...

Ok, I've put the whole machine together (for now :D ). I went for the Noctua NH-U9F, and then set about cutting out the beam. Sure enough, it fitted beautifully- a few mm clearance on each side, and lined up well with the (removed) vent grills on the back. However, you'll notice I said 'fitted'. It ...

I think the law of diminishing returns comes into play here, in that there's no straight-line relationship between voltage and speed. Also, no matter how low you set the clock speed, it will refuse to run after a certain point as you lower the voltage. You'll need to go by trial and error, I'm afrai...

Good news- I may have found another option. Looking through the coolers available at my local interweb retailer, I spotted this little beauty, and remembered that Noctua were held in particularly high regard by SPCR after some rather nice HS and fan tests. I decided to check whether this was feasibl...

Firstly- Welcome to SPCR! Secondly- Thanks! I was wondering about the Thermalright towers, and whether or not they'd fit sideways- now I know :) Do you think that I could put in an HR-01, if I rotated it by about 45 degrees and chopped out half of that beam (I do enjoy destroying things :twisted: )?...

Hello all, After a recent enquiry about small cases, I decided to bite the bullet and ordered myself an APlus Blockbuster- basically another X-QPack/Chenming clone. As much as I would have liked to get an Antec, the budget just couldn't justify the premium to get one in Scotland. I'm still gathering...

I was wondering about this one as well- the best idea I had was to get a large plastic bottle, and cut off the 'shoulder' and the base. You'd then put a hole in it for the fins to fit in (ideally you would want the plastic to be in line with the top of the fan to make sure that it caught all the air...
