Will be great to see if silence can be achieved! Looking forward to it.

well I currently have all the hardware on test in my tj07 and it is as close to silent as I can get. hopefully the aquaero will make it a little more automated.

I am planning on doing some bits and bobs with my fan arrangement to reduce the required number of fans.

Hah, limited budget, TJ11 and Gigabyte 590GTX all in the same post. Good one ;). Looking forwards to it!

well, after buying that lot my budget is stretched enough as it is :p

I hope this is less fail than the last topic :p

kd

what was the last topic?
 
I spotted fail. Z68...pffff X79 pleeeeaaaaassse!

Other than that I'm sure it will be a success with you at the helm m8 (drools at TJ11).

Good Luck!

ah, z68 is perfectly fine. no point me going x79. I may as well have stayed with my X568o :p

seriously though, cant see any advantages to it for my uses. I don't use my system for much more than gaming any more so its all about silence, cooling and aesthetics now :)

Out of interest, how big (capacity) are the SSDs?

kd

both 128GB

don't really need much more than that.
 
I would've used the Z68 SSD-option (64GB SSD is enough) to cache a bigger mechanical HDD but I hear it can be a pain to setup first time. You do get plenty of storage at near SSD speeds. And you know you can go the silent route with your OcUK Silent PC Cases! If you built your own silent case I'd like to see your efforts there please.

Good luck with your build in your spare time over the festive period, look forward to your build log :)
 
Im still not sold on the case...i know the build will be great though. I take it as given your going for a 140.4 :)
subbed.
 
sadly not. my windows is yet to be finished and I am waiting for some spare parts from silverstone.

its taking far too long and I am growing impatient
 
Still waiting on parts or just been busy over Christmas? Intrigued to see this develop :)

kd

a little bit of both sadly.
My Window has arrived but I have had some issues with damaged parts on my case.

Silverstone are being very awkward in replacing the damaged parts which is surprising after how brilliant they were with my TJ07 parts.

I need the plastic clips for the roof and a new power switch array because the lower power switch on mine is seized.

I am in the process of saving for a new car which has put this on the backburner a little.

I have some braided cables and the window which I will make an update out of this weekend at some point.

I have gone with Bitfenix braided cables. Sadly I don't have the time to do a full braiding job on the cables for my psu, this system will not have the same epicness that the tj07 had :(
 
Update

Got a bit done today.

Mainly preparation work to get the case ready to build in.

Silverstone are flat out refusing to help me with a replacement power button which is nice. :rolleyes:

but Pulse Modding have made me a superb custom tinted window for the case.

I have used some black button allen head M3 screws to give it a stealth look as the silver ones that come as standard look a bit rubbish

not really much else to show as it has been a case of taking out all of the bits inside the case that I don't need and also deciding where bits are going.
