never thought of that

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:21

You really need to get a fan controller...

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:22

not this again...

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:31

Atleast it's something you actually need

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:32

yeah, It will get painted orange

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:36

I think you can. Just need to take the metal faceplate off and spray it. You can also have the display in orange I think.

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:41

can't do orange but can do white, so It'll be orange front with white text

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:53

Oooohhhh

I'm going to keep mine green. Once I open it that is

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:55

you got any updates for your build?

I go back to school on wednesday, so It'll be much harder to do any modding

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:57

Not yet.

Wednesday? Not September?

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 18:58

no scotland is different from england

RollerBall · 11 Aug 2011 at 19:04

You go back to school already :O. When did you break up?

I'm not going back to London until the 20th. I could go back about a week later but I want to be back for freshers as I had a few lectures during my first year freshers but as a second year I don't have any! A week of getting blasted with no work! Wooo!

I've started ordering stuff :O. I figured if I didn't start I never would. I've jumped on an i5 and a 128gb M4 from the MM saving £45 in total for new in box!

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 19:05

the start of June, can't remember the date
lucky you, you got a 2500k & ssd, I want one :mad:

Cleeecooo · 11 Aug 2011 at 19:08

Which one do you want? The CPU or SSD? lol

KiiYzOo · 11 Aug 2011 at 19:09

both whoops

RollerBall · 11 Aug 2011 at 19:34

Need to order a 6970, corsair dominator 8gig (2x4) and an extreme4 gen3 and I'm finished on hardware. Taking my 650w modular PSU and my 640 HDD from my current rig.

Then all I need to do is decide if I'm willing to blow £400 on the TJ07 customised to how I want it and another £300 on the water parts/sleeving...

It's a shame my current PSU isn't fully modular, I think there's a 24pin, sata and molex cable put in normally. Not a massive issue as every rig will always need that, bit of a pain though to sleeve.

lucky

honestly, get a 570, a new modular (100%) PSU and only spend £200 on the TJ07

I'm gonna take a look to see how much of my PSU is actually non-modular and if it's neccessary to get a 100% modular one.

I'm going to get whatever is cheaper out of the 6970 and the 570 now that it's not inverted so it doesn't matter if the waterblock doesn't look as good. Need to decide what finish on the waterblocks though. Nickel/plexi or nickel/acetal and what colour compressions.

Does anybody know if you can watercool RAM other than the dominators? They're like twice the price of the vengeance range. Don't fancy paying £90 for RAM when the same spec ram is £50.

It's also a bit of a challenge to get a Tj07 for £200. The windowed one is £245 retail. Plus powdercoating costs about £65. I'll be ordering a midplate for it, as well as rad stands. Brings total up to around £330.
