Project: LARP

Well I have been trying to plan the route of my loop for a while and I think your set route is a good one so might do the same but with couple modifications :)

I meant to ask as well, what rpm are you running your fans on your rad at? According to Skinnee labs to cool my rig at 100% would require fans at 1100 - 1200rpm so I thought about adding a 120 SR-1 but so many people are running just 360's.

Running them all on voltage reducer cables, the stock RPM is 1500, so I imagine they're around 800rpm now? Not really checked but it didn't make a noticeable difference to temps at all really, but noticeable difference to noise of the system :)
 
Ah ok, thanks for the reply. 800 rpm fans sound fine to me, from that I think I will go with just a 360 as temps should be low enough but with the possibility of 120/140 rad for the future.

Yep should be fine.

These are my temps:

970 @ 4ghz, 1.328v
55ish Load
30ish Idle

460gtx @ 1087/900/1800
44ish Load
30ish Idle

Adding another 460 in SLI shouldn't make a difference in temps at all either. Could fit a 120/140 rad on the exhaust of the HAF X too :)
 
Thats nice to know about the overclock potential with the Gigabyte GA-X58-USB3 Intel X58 & it even has the right angle sata sockets, definately worth considering if using 1 gpu :).
Only thing that puts it down for me is I have 2 5870's so it would run 1 of them in 4x :( oh & I'd need to buy a pcie sound card because my auzentech x-fi prelude is pci, can't stand onboard audio.

But Shhhheeeeet metal that IO plate is ruff :D, but if it does the job I suppose :D.

Doesn't really matter if it's messy behind the tray as it's unseen :p, through the window looks saaaweeeet :D.
