project: clean up (going to be pic heavy)!!:D

hehe got a cheeky 41C on my cpu at idle with that TIM, funny cuz thats about 5-6C higher than my normal load temp, and i have to say it is looking stunning and a lot better than before!
 
a nice shot of it, with surprisingly good quality for a 5mpx phone

Yes its worth abit elbow grease to see your PC sparckle, don't leave it as long, makes it easier to do.

By the way nice job, but buy yourself some electrians tie raps you can get them in different colurs and tidy your cables up makes a neatter job, l use blue were l can goes well with my set up. ;)

this is only temporary lol, im getting a new case in june so can't fait for that, and im thinking of either swapping my psu out fo the 850w modular version or getting some white nzxt extensions :D
 
Nice work.

As for the pictures, you should get yourself a decent camera phone. I use an old K850i which has auto focus and a proper flash, and it takes pictures clearly.

No need for a seperate expensive camera.
 
Nice looking rig you got there buddy! I will say though never thought of using an air bed pump will have to try that :)

i was using my sisters 14mpx cybershot for the decent pic's, im going to get myself one when i have the money, great camera!
i have to say it is looking a lot cleaner and not such of a mess but when i get my case it will look even better, with no mess whatsoever, as im am abit ocd about keeping my stuff neat (good thing i guess) an odd thing, my temps have gone down to 31C idle :confused:
 
i just cleaned mine today, idle temps have gone from 55C to around 30C shows how much of a difference it makes, the vrm heatsink was literally caked in dust :(
 
lol, i hate dust with a passion, my temps are idling around 34C now but when i get some better paste they should go back to the normal 29-30 odd, not long till i get a new case and other stuff now, so should be really tidy and look good then :p
 
nice, yeh i was thinking my idles were a bit high.... :p i need a new case, antec 900 is terrible for cabling, so it looks terrible atm :/
 
the antec range of cases are so bog standard with little to no features imo, something like coolermaster cases are so much better for cooling and cables :) mmmmmm cm690II

can i ask why you are using the d2x and the supreme xfi at the same time?

i have the pci version (d2) and also have a formula motherboard but i don't put my supreme x-fi in.

is it just a matter of looks?


I quite often use my headphones and speakers at the same time but sadly the D2X doesn't allow me to do that (at least as far as I am aware... this is the only issue I have with it nowadays). As a result of that I just run with the supreme X-Fi from the motherboard, allows me to use both at the same time when I want to .
i realised this guy had a pretty neat idea and i wanted to try it :p
