Red a dAIR 800D

[Speed]

That is niiceee.. Although, fan on cooler blowing hot air on gpu?
Edit: Beaten to it! darn it

Err no its not, it is pushing air up!

But what Diablo says it true, might pay to rotate it 90 degrees so it is pushing air out the back rather than pulling warm air from the GPU. Doubt it would make a huge difference.

Ahh ok, no problems then, looks awesome! love red, but also like blue gaaah..

 

[Speed]

Yeah Red and Black go well together. Blue is over used these days, but still looks good lol.

 

[makamiso]

Yeah i would change to red... but cba with it at the moment

 

[Brizzles]

Nice clean build

Excellent idea with the psu label ( might steal that idea one day )

Those phobya fans are great, i'm using them in mine, very quiet.

Hello again and thanks the cooler will only fit in the north south orientation on the AM3 socket shame i know but would only be a problem with no fan in roof i think .My temps are okay i think i'll try and get some pics of some tests soon, Bios temp says cpu temp 29*C\84*F

 

[ripperOFflesh]

Thanks mrdoristol ive seen your very good builds and i got the fans idea from you lol on your monolith build thanks again i might be watercooling it in a few months time so i'll be looking for idea's and tips as ive never done watercooling before be nice moveing onto stage 2 of the build with help from very experianced modder like yourself thanks again time to sort a temp pic out lol

 

[ripperOFflesh]

.
they seem to low to me but im not sure if they right i read in the cpu forum some other guys getting strange temps so i'll just go of me bios temp for now,well i'll go and do a bit more thanks again bye

Edit:-These are just idle temps pc on about 20 mins i'll do some other tests and pics laterz bye

 

[ripperOFflesh]

Hi quick update i got a lian li bs-07r internal pci cooler just to move air down bottom all temps seam to be okay

.

I did an auto overclock with Turbo V evo Overclocking tool and it went to 3,9ghz will go higher i think but i'll try it later ran 3dmark06 and got 22000 score

..
I think i'll get some red internal lights next then start to draw up plans for stage 2 of the build which will be watercooling i think,well untill i get some new bits take care all

 

[ShaolinDreams]

sweet rig you made yourself there, looks & performance

 

[baron02]

WOW one astonishing rig ! Can't wait for next update on this build

 

[St0tteh0]

Those fans look really slick, thinking about getting some for my 800D

 

[G-Dubs]

Why not also swap out the fan on the Fenrir? Or mod the fan to keep with the red black theme.

I've got Fenfirs on bouth my builds and in both instances have changed the fan out. On one occasion for a sharkroon and the other a scythe gentle yyphoon. Both gave me a reduction iftemps over the stock Fenrir fan.

Easy enough to do with a bit of taping and sanding a few rattle cans from Halfords.

Just a thought.

very nice build chrimbo fenrir for the win

 

[ripperOFflesh]

Hi again and thanks for the comments,yes g-dubs i know what u mean about the cooler fan i was going to put a Phobya 120 on it but bugs me a little having to orientate the cooler the north south direction so im thinking of getting a Noctua nh-d14 and spraying its fans black and red says on there site they clear the ripjaws memory.Id like to know if anyone thas seen the noctua on same motherboard and ram incase it wont fit i'll put the fennir on my other build its a very good cooler.I did another overclock yesterday to 4.2GHz and scored 22826 on 3dmark06 forgot to say its like sitting next to an air conditioning unit in this hot weather we having right i best go i'll keep an update on the build bye for now

 

[ripperOFflesh]

Hello again quick update

Got a noctua nh-d14 and sprayed the fans quite a heavy cooler when its all together and its very big

Put it on the board and had about 3mm clearance for the ripjaw ram,i can now put my ram in slot 1 and 3, a plus point is the middle fan blows the northbridge heatsink so keeping it a bit cooler i'll do some tests when its all together well i best get on laterz

If you aren't already...
I would personally put your Back pannel fan and your 2 noctua fans to pull cool air from outside the case through the cooler... that way you are not just pulling warm air from inside the case onto the cooler. Then use the big fans at the top to pull the warm air out.
That case doesn't have the best airflow, people usually use it only for water cooling systems because of this (plus it houses wc perfectly). So you need to get as much cold air as possible onto that cooler and the top fans are adequate to vent the air out of the case. Just set everything else to pull

 

[ripperOFflesh]

Hello again put pc back together and everything seems good ,the pc has gone very quiet with putting this noctua cooler on the cooler fans are running 1000 rpm less than the titan and the temps are a little better i think .Slyxfx i know what u mean about the air intake but i have mine cumming in from the front right through to the back here is a pic of what i mean

I also have the front roof fan blowing in and the bottom fan blowing in all others blow out the airflow seems to work good and temps are good i will be doing watercooling later on in the year

Well got to sort the wire's out round the back and a few bits and bobs next thing to get is some lights and it should be nearly done untill the watercooling well i best get on
i'll update soon thanks for reading bye

 

[Coldzero]

Looks awesome, good build.

 

[SlyxFX]

Ah, i didn't see those fans before. Thats a nice setup
