Doobydoobydoo

Look forward to this m8. Glad your happy with the case and more importantly, it's gonna have some stonking hardware in there!

Might have to start this folding/seti malarky myself if it means I can excuse splashing the cash on a couple of SR2's :eek:

I doubt you would stick at it, it requires a very special kind of insanity to excel at this game :p

More SR2's !!!!! NOooooooooo [halz throws himself under a truck] :rolleyes: :p
 
No what I meant was if I can say that spending x amount of £££'s for hardware is for a good cause then maybe the Mrs would be more forgiving. Saying that, I don't think she will see the hunt for extraterrestrial life as a worthy cause :(.
 
That is the great advantage of Folding. The fight against Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, etc. is one most people can agree with.
 
I have to agree with you guys on that one, the fight against disease is probably the most important battle we will ever face in our lifetime, to know "we are not alone" is not exactly a pressing issue in comparison.

A combination of cost and expertise has led me to the conclusion that this build has to be on air for the immaediate future. Could use any practical ideas you guys might have for dust filters especially for the front 9 fans, i will not be relying on ladies tights this time around :)

You could get a large square of dust filter material with some sort of ridgid trim round the outside, then attach it to the front face with small magnets.

It wouldn't look amazing but will probably be a lot easier than 9 small ones, cleaning would be a doddle as well, you could just plop it off and vacumn it.

A double-SR2 rig?

Sorry, think I will hold off on an SR-2 to make sure there is enough electricity in the Grid to run Toxic's new rig.

Good plan Mr dekez the mesh will be easy enough to find its the edging that'll pose a problem when i go w/c later on but yup will work on that for now......Ta Muchly :)



:D Oh i seen that one coming, but in all fairness they're a great emergency stand by for dust filters and hoover belts etc :)
 
How much you wanna spend on filters? You can get proper filters to replace the wire fingergaurds for £2 inc in alu silver or £2.77 in black.
 
I would consider them the next best thing to have laying around, apart from thumbscrews and molex extension cables. Trying to decide where to place the case has been a toughy, have had to empty everyting into front room lay carpet and paint - my monitor has come a cropper so i might have to consider my 1st home insurance claim.
Tis all worth it though....no regrets :)
 
Toxic, if and when you decide to go water I may be able to pop up north for a few days and lend a helping hand providing the missus doesnt object and my car is insured and on the road. The time off work wont be a problem
 
Looks like I may have to find another GTX470 to replace the ded one

Heck, no warranty accidental damage home insurance?, off the top of my head i know i don't have a spare but will dig a little deeper into the chaos ;)

Morning Mr Biffa sah, if i understand you correctly you mean the wire grilles on the front? That would be an important part of the overall look so would be reluctant to lose them.
If its a competitor i understand but have had a look through ocuk cdon't seem to be able to find anything suitable.
I know i could easily put something on the inside but the plan is as soon as everything is installed/configured etc i will go for broke and get the watercooling done so it would have to be some kind of dust filter on the outside hmmmmm must go think some more :confused:
 
Well the way finances are at present Mr SiriusB sah i think it might be a fully decked out 1 sr2 but meh all in good time :)

Mountain Mods bits being disptched friday/monday coming....and so it begins!

Okay on the subject of watercooling gpu's have taken a liking to the ek-nickel/plexi blocks but can these 2 items be combined or is the backplate just for an unmodified card?




I have a feeling the gtx 560 will be out any day and am waiting for a £20-£25 drop in the price of gtx 570 before i take the plunge ...wanting muchly :)
