Yes, my previous case was a Medion case. I have found out that the connection is called the analog Line-in. Now I just need to find the pinouts for the Analogue Line-in connection and I can connect each wire to the correct pin. I have checked pinouts.ru but couldnt find it... Does anybody know what ...

Sorry, but the picture I showed above was not actually of my motherboard, but has the exact same connection. Here is an actual picture of my motherboard http://www.sitalchauhan.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Other/audio.jpg I am 100% certain that it is an audio connection because it was used in my previous ca...

no. The black socket is for CD-audio. The green socket is for case audio.
I think it is a really uncommon connection as I cant find any info on the pinouts :S

Motherboard Audio Connection

Hi, I have got quite an old motherboard and just bought an Antec P180 case. I have got everything working apart from the front audio connections on the case as I cannot find which connections go to which pin on the connection on my motherboard. The front pannel audio connection on my motherboard is ...

If you live in the UK, you can buy a pre window modded P180 from: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/info_1007.html I bought one and have had it for a couple of weeks now. I know it is quite a lot of money, but for me I think it was worth it. The window looks amazing, even better than what I would ...

I have heard of this same problem with the Thermaltake Tsunami case fans. They just sometimes dont start at 12V without a push.

I guess thermaltake will probably replace them under warranty, but they are not very good fans at all, and I personally would just replace them with better fans.

3Pin Cable Length On Nexus / Yate Loon Fans

I am going to order quite a few Yate Loon D12SL-12 and am going to use the 3pin connection on them to power and control speed, instead of the 4pin. However, I was wondering how long is the 3pin cable from the fan to the end of the 3pin connector (but not to the 4pin connector)? I just want to check ...

Yes, the window will most likely reduce the P180's ability to absorb sound, but I dont believe that the difference will much.

I would much prefer a window over the slightly increased absorbed sound :D

this place doesn't ship to the UK? Just making sure you saw it :wink: I dont quite understand what you meant, but they do ship to the UK but the total price would come out close to £200 for both the case and shipping ($380), which I think is too much. Thanks for the help though. Come on guys, we n...

Windowed Antec P180 / P180B In The UK!

After searching low and high for a windowed P180 (black or white), I came across a UK retailer that was prepared to start selling a windowed version as long as there was enough interest. Many retailers refused to perform the window mod on the P180 because it has very thick panels, making it very dif...

I am in the exact same situation as yourself. I live in the UK I love the P180, but would really like a window on it. I looked around for ages for a windowed P180 and even enquired at a few websites about their window modding service. Preformance-PC's do ship to the UK, but the total price would com...

pyogenes, thats for those pictures and temperature reading. It seems that the Rev.B ninja does actually fit on your P5W. It could either work on all P5W's, or could be down to orientation, or manufacturing variance in height of capacitors, or maybe something else. If somebody else with another P5W a...

Thanks pyogenes for indicating that you had no problems. However, after looking at pictures of the P5B and P5W, they do look very similar and it does seem that the heatsink would probably also have problems with hitting the capacitors on the P5W. pyogenes, I would be extremely grateful if you could ...

Scythe Ninja Rev.B (In)Compatiability With Asus P5w DH?

I have read lots of recent reports that the new revesion B of the ninja is incompatiable with the Asus P5B (without chopping bits off) as it hits some of the capacitors. I was thinking of ordering a rev.B ninja and have a P5w-DH. As these motherboards are quite similar, I just wanted to check can an...

I am also just about to purchase the "HIS ATI Radeon X1900XT ICEQ3" after a lot of research. It is an excellent card as it is very quiet and blows the air out of the case, unlike most aftermath cooler, therefore keeping your internal case temps lower. I think that this is the best quiet ATI card wit...

I think I will order that and actually see how quiet/loud it is first. I can probably imagine that the hard drive will be the loudest thing in my case, but just want to check how loud it is before I purchase a silent enclosure, as it may not be a probblem. I read a few reviews about the really bad f...

Thanks for clearing up about PWM.

I am planning to get 2 1200rpm s-flex's and a fanmate for each to slow them down slightly.

If I used a splitter to connect both fans to one fanmate, would that mean that at max, each would only be going at half of their full speed?

Thanks

I am planning to use 2 scythe s-flex 1200rpm fans in my new build (would have used other better brands like nexus or yate loon, but I cant find them anywhere as I live in the UK). However, I just read that they can make a clicking noise when their speed is reduced using PWM. I am slightly confused. ...

I am planning to order the following build, but want it to be as quiet as possible AT IDLE (dont mind if a bit noisy at load).
