Zalman TNN Cases Discontinued?

I like the look of it, and should be able to cope with the heat output of the system..., nice size and nice design..., and truly silent, well if I cant get a Smartdrive 2002C to fit in it...

You would be much better to invest in a large tower case and water cool it. It would work out a similar price (if not slightly cheaper) with high end water cooling which would cater for the latest components. You could also run it virtually silent!

I have checked the specs and them pumps are still loud around 23DB..., and the hassle of testing it for leaks is jsut to much bother for me.., i'm not really looking ot build a super high end machine so water cooling is out of the question..., £200 for the kit, £75 for PSU, £80 fpr the case, nearly adds up to the same price as the TTN-300...

Well let's face facts - the majority of water cooling systems are far from silent, but they can be made so, with a little forethought and planning - but do you really need absolute silence? Take for example my system here - it's a watercooled E6600 @ 3ghz, a 8800 GTX running at 50 degrees idle and it's very very quiet indeed. I use an ultra quiet psu, which is running well under spec, so it's even quieter and I am running a triple rad with 3 x 120mm silent fans at 40%. It's producing a whisper. You can't even hear the pump its so quiet and i have to check the controller at times just to make sure it's on!!

Care to note down the parts oyu use, eg.. pump/waterblocks/radiators/fans, specced up a watercooling rig a year back, but never got it...

The fact that Phil knows cases inside out and does it for a living, I'd take his advise "huh" :/

Don't be such a fool. You are blindly ignoring advice given.

N neod to be cocky?.., his business is no concern of mine.., all I asked was a simple question, but guess I will send Gibbo an email
