    Fractal Design Define R6

    That's good to know. Fractal responded to my email regarding the 804 brackets. They are willing to ship hdd adapters foc but was warned it could take up to 2 months. :eek:

    Fractal Design Define R6

    Are they secure with only two screws or did you have to modify the cage? I currently use the 304 and getting in and doing anything drive related is a pain. I can imagine the 804 is the same.

    Fractal Design Define R6

    Perfect. Found it. 3 fans and his hottest drive was roughly <10 degrees above ambient, top closed. Little peeved at having to buy additional brackets but going to pull the trigger anyway ;) Thanks for the help.

    Fractal Design Define R6

    Settled on the Node 804 as a NAS enclosure but it seems to have HDD mounting issues with large capacity drives :rolleyes: Anyone stuffed the R6 full of HDD's yet? Keen to hear drive temps; hoping they can remain cool with fans at low(ish) rpm.

    Mechanical keyboards?

    If you can live without RGB you could always grab a Unicomp keyboard which use the same buckling spring switch as your old Model M.

    What mouse is everyone using ? 2016

    Thanks, will take a look. I use a fingertip grip so was hoping the smaller size of the G Pro would suit me better as I find I hold the FK1 half way down and it can get fatiguing swiping it around after a while.

    Currently using an FK1 but tempted to switch to the G Pro when it is released.

    Does Philips x2 need an Amp?

    Completely agree with the above. I am assuming the X2's are your only cans? If so, with that budget, I seriously suggest you sell the X2's, buy a cheap amp/dac like the Schiit Magni/Modi and spend the bulk on some top tier headphones like Audeze LCD2's. Spending that amount on amplification...

    ** PHANTEKS ENTHOO PRIMO - THE ULTIMATE WATERCOOLING CHASSIS **

    Here is my humble attempt. It was my first time watercooling and I am delighted in didn't end in tears tbh. Did have a slight panic when my cpu was idling at 70 degrees, only to realise my pump wasn't running. Excuse the potato quality.

    ** PHANTEKS ENTHOO PRIMO - THE ULTIMATE WATERCOOLING CHASSIS **

    Just wondering if anyone has put an bay res/pump into their Primo and how much, if any, vibration they are experiencing? Looking to use one of these but worried about noise and reliability compared to a tube res. http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-140-XS This is my first...

    Push Pull for Silence

    Thanks for the reply. Just done a bit more research and it would seem that two fans at 7db individually, equate to 10db overall. Sound levels look to increase by roughly 2 db per fan after that. Source: http://www.snapfour.com/combinednoise_calculations.aspx Still trying to get my head...

    Push Pull for Silence

    Hi guys and gals, This will be my first time watercooling :) I am trying to figure out if push pull at a low rpm will be quieter than push or pull only at the higher rpm required for the same performance. Will be using a 480mm rad low fpi rad. Thanks in advance.

    ** PHANTEKS ENTHOO PRIMO - THE ULTIMATE WATERCOOLING CHASSIS **

    This case is a monster up against the Node 304 and Air 540. Can't wait to lose my water cooling virginity to this case. [/IMG]

    Insurgency ?

    I'm exactly the same as you, gave it a go on release and is now the only game I play; love it. Only downside is the lack of maps, although the steam workshop should fix that. There is talk of the old mod map Sinjar being released next week though along with a few other bits and bobs so...

    **Official Gigabyte Z87X-OC Discussion Thread**

    Anyone having problems installing the App Centre? Just done a fresh install of windows 8.1 and wish I hadn't bothered - first I had the secure boot conundrum and now this.
