Yeah, you get in the cardboard box bit, and press the on button on the strimmer/hedge trimmer shaft.
Oh and earlier I bought an LG Flatron 29" from OC. Pics tomorrow. I am looking forward to that. I've not told my wife though.
New case
I was eyeing up one of those for a future new build, how you finding it?

I like the way they supply you with a bar to beat the strimmer with when it fails to start.
New dishwasher arrived this morning. Being 22 it's the first appliance I have ever bought
Very pleased with it though, a lot better than the cheapest of the cheap thing we used to have.
I love Indesit products.

Not really. I'm pleased with everything I own that isn't malfunctioning or performing below my expectations. I can be pleased with the performance of a good pair of shoes yet it doesn't mean I have a foot fetish.
Bought fans from OcUK, they came highly rated for low noise high performance:
Upon installation (while eating the Haribos!) I realised that those highly rated reviews were a pile of crap as far as my configuration goes. At close to full speed they're louder than my old Noctua fans and one of the 120mm was DOA, just stutters and tries to spin up but fails...
Packed them back up ready to get a refund, must do that shortly.
In the meantime I needed fans so a quick trip down town and:
Now these are more like it., quiet, plenty of air on the 140s and static pressure for the 120s. Will be ideal for the CPU cooler upgrade soon.

Does that mean you need to return the Haribo too? Lol
Is that a roundabout way of you asking if I will poo through OcUK's letterbox? Because that's the only way they can have them back
I found them still noisy compared to the rest of my system with voltage adjustment. I use software, not the 650D fan controller as my case is one of the first revisions that had the dodgy fan controller and Yellowbeard of Corsair promised to send the fixed controller out which never arrived... May his beard be shaved one night and shoved up his buttocks.
Anyhoo, the construction of the Corsairs seem much better too and the damping sections are less fragile.

I bought some of these from OCUK last week when they were on offer, wasn't really paying attention to my temps beforehand so can't say if they're doing much but they don't make too much noise unless I crank them above 75%.
