It's the Phanteks PH-TC14PE.

Rossi, how are you finding the Phanteks fans. I've got a couple lying around, and tried them on full pelt the other day and they were quite noisy. Haven't had a chance to try them with the low noise resistor...

It sure is the PH-TC14PE
The fans are great! Not loud at all but they are only 1200rpm max.

Which RAM heatsinks in Black are available for the Samsung Green DDR3?

Samsung Green are soooo small, can you even fit heatsinks on them? There's no point to heatsinks on them other than looks.

@ Rossi - Your setup is beastly.

Thanks!

I went for these purely for cosmetics, I hope they fit, but I see no reason why they shouldn't tbh.

I'm just waiting for the lamptron modding tools to come into stock and I'll order some braid.

Fro sure

I'll let you all know next week if they fit okay.

That fro can be tamed if I wack one of these on it.

i always love seeing what other people do with the corsair 650d.

You know you can remove that plastic hard drive mount near the fan though? couple of screws underneath. I personally think it makes for a cleaner looking rig

Interesting.... No doubt it's around 20-30 off the bay right ?

I was tempted to take a punt but read mixed reviews on HeadFi so didn't bother. Thanks for the feedback :cool:

Audiophiles i assume who are comparing it to something that costs a lot more....for the price i think its very good.

I got mine from the MM here,cant remember how much i paid now but yeah they are about £40 + postage on a well known auction site...they seem quite hard to get within the UK.

heres mine, tempted to get black internals and red fans

Yaayuh! · 10 May 2012 at 19:43

I agree, spray insides black (and the outside to touch it up) and replace the fans with black + red

Here is a picture of inside my new CM 690 ii ... I think I done okay for a first build where I have actually tried to manage cables lol. Unfortunately the CPU power cable that came with the PSU is very short which kind of ruined the look!

Nice Job

Unfortunately most psu's eps cables are this short.

King Damager · 10 May 2012 at 22:04

From what I can see, that looks like the EPS cable could have gone up the back...
