the chip i currently have is very special

and i fancied a change

and i hate 920s

[no offence to 920 users, but when you have overclocked 4000+ i7 920s they get a little boring]

either way, fornowagain has got a truly epic cherry picked chip :p

Are you saying that i7 950 chip is better than i7 920 chip and how difference is it ?

I suppose you won't hold i7 950 for much longer until u will change to i7 970 (6 cores & 12 threads)

it was around 24000+ with the 920 [obviously the 4890s are not the greatest cards for vantage]
i havent run vantage with my new chip yet

cheers mate :cool:
 
Looking forward to seeing your next updates mate.

Those acrylic top panels do look really nice, was gonna get one myself, but have something etched into it instead of just having it bare..
 
well well well

look what we have here

perspex window for the roof of my case
this takes the fan numbers down by two. a really nicely finished product in my opinion, very impressed.

Hi, Great build and case. Can I ask you about the memory cooler. Is that the larger Corsair Dominator fan and you changed the fans inside. If so, great work and can I ask how you did it and was it easy as I have the same fan and find the corsair fans slightly buzzy/noisy. I would like to change the fans for quieter fans. Could you possibly give me some advice, Thanks.

it is the tri channel dominator cooler, i put some 60mm fractal fans in it

i had to dremel the body of the fractal fans down to fit the fan blades sit flush with the body of the cooler

then i spliced the two wires together and braided them at the exact distance to get it plugged into the header next to the Dimm slots on the board

if you do want to change the fans, you will need to cut down most fans as the frames are too wide
