SETI@home News Vol. 114
- Thread starter TheTross
- Start date
just spent 40 quid here on a couple of fans, my 480 is currently 102C
Have dropped the clocks down a bit till they arrive..
Wow - that's beyond toasty - by an order of magnitude!!!!!!
Try taking out the top left fan on the side panel - should work (it's what I had to do.
Wow that was a long day
Looks simple doesn't it?
Nice and straightforward
Except the h50 push/pull stops the door holding the 4 fans from closing.....rather than rip it all out and start again just bolted it onto the door
Case closed...and the little green box is ready for its first day at work tommorrow, couldn't help myself so in view of the colour i name this rig "puke"

Excuse Me????
I agree it is definately an acquired taste but i like it a lot now, plenty of room to work in, if another one comes up i would definately consider it
lol....morning Mr Loudbob sah
I've heard the expression no plan survives first contact with the enemy - in this case (ha), its no plan survives first contact with the case! Despite hours of offering things up, as soon as I started work, I spotted a few flaws in my original plan. Instead of hanging the rad assembly saddle-bag style down the side, I've gone for a top mount:
...which of course makes things a bit tight for the reservoir:
...and makes my USB ports art the front useless!!!! This is a lot trickier than I thought it would be - everything is sooooo damn tight!

Finally ready to fill me steam powered rig and test the main connections
I like the 'industrial' look! - honest!!!!
Filling this is gonna be a bugga. I wanted to use straight connectors coming out of the bottom of the res', but I couldn't get the bend on the pipes in the drive bay without kinking them - which means the only way I could figure out to get a high point was to put a 'breather' pipe on the 'top' of the res' !!!!

That's going to get messy if any unlucky insects happen by!
Or fingers
I will have filters on the final fans - these are just two that came with the case and I'm using as a sort of proof of concept!!!! I doubt they're man enough for the job!
Simply because there is not enough room. I can just about fit the fans up there - it would have to be a super slim radiator!!!!!
Sorry, re-read your post. Because I still want at least one exhaust fan for the case.
Keep it as an exhaust?
Ignore me, if the ghetto/industrial/hardcore cruncher/loopiedeloop look is your bag then who am I to criticize
On another note, called scantastika and my PSU which has no been at the supplier for 2 months has no word.
