Good luck dreamaxx on getting everything back together
thanks :)
Happy and safe moving:surf:
join us again soon.:up:
Dreamaxx, I hope your move is problem-free. Come back when you get settled and let's figure out how to resurrect your rig, mkay?
I hate it when nice rigs go BAD !! anyway I hope for you an easy move and for your rig to come to life again :D
Hey guys, well I'm here in sunny Queensland and it is lovely. Start work tomorrow. Still trying to find a house but I suppose that'll take time to find something that suits me! Hoping that Pegasus can be up and running asap, but all depends on things getting repaired/replaced and when he arrives here! Just thought I'd keep in touch with you all!
Congrats on the move! And wait, Pegasus is a boy ???? :eek:
Of course Pegasus is a boy! :) I don't like girls :D haha ;) except you of course Shaz.. us nerd-modding-girls need to stick together :D
I would like to see you keep the bottom of the Heatkiller Copper and Nickel everything else.Copper is a better heat conductor than Nickel and IMHO you take something away from it when you cover it,besides nobody will be able to see bottom of block anyway. That is one sweet rig you have and keep up the good work.
she nickel plated the bottom of the block as well. i dont think it'll make *that* much difference being nickel plated or not.
Wow, an Aussie modding girl that loves Pegasus! Peeing my pants to see more! Hope all is working out.
Soon! :) Just trying to work out what monitoring stuff is best for this build at the moment. Will be getting some new hardware for fans and pump soon regardless!
Heya Nat, hows sunny qld treating ya :P
I would reply on ocau but some little kid who can't tale any criticism for being a clone got me a 24hr ban :rofl:
Ahaha some little poohead got me banned too, just for calling them an idiot when they were insulting me! Hehe :) Don't you love the immature people there?
Dream, what ever happened to the fan controller? So far the sunbeam rheobus extreme I use is running 6 high power/ cfm fans pretty good. Only problem is that it comes in blue. Which I had to mod to red.
There are several things I like about your build:
1. The name (unique and refreshingly different)
2. The acrylic plate you had made
3. The dye in your water loop -- who would have though purple could look so good?
4. your pictures really capture the spirit of the build
5. that it is taking 7 months you said? That inspires me for my build because I lost a PSU... So I'm anxious and upset that I can't show the progress off.
Edit: I noticed you have a ROG board too (sweet!). Did you turn on the CPU temp monitor in your BIOS? I think that would help if overheating ever happens again...
Hey Vinas, this build is now 9 months in the making, but only because I've moved from one side of Australia to the other right when I broke it and that has slowed me down a lot. I am still waiting for the motherboard to come back from repair so I can start putting it back together. I don't want to use fan controllers ever again! I am going to go with either the Aquaero or the Koolance TMS-200, but I think because the Aquaero has more channels it will suit this build better. It is just a matter of fitting it somewhere!
wow dont you just hate it when your inches from the finish line.... then it fails epicly.... in your case you were finished!!!! well at least we all know what company we shouldnt buy fan controllers from now... (*cough*Scythe*cough*)...
anyways looks amazing and good luck with your build and your move!
i have two of them.Quote:

Hey Dream,
How did the move go? Have you got yourself settled in now?
Looking forward to seeing the rebirth of Pegasus. :yepp:
Went alright, it was just hideously expensive. Not sure how I'm going to afford the TMS-200/Aquaero but I suppose that's what credit cards are for :)
id say dont do it, but that would be horribly hypocritical of me.
well... if you have any experience in electronics, you could build your own fan controller using the parts you have from your broken scythe... linky... To make it look nice you can drill holes in a project box and holes in your drive bays then put it in there. Its a lot cheaper and you can also test it if your not sure. all you need to know is how to solder...
*edit found one a lot easier... http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2001...peed_control/1
Something tells me she doesn't want anything to do with that old scythe. :(
Could always run it with fan controllers till you get the extra money, or just break out the plastic. :)
Glad to hear the move went alright. :up:
haha i wouldnt either. Im thinking of doing the second thing that i posted, which can be put onto a fan extension and then hooked up to a fan. that is pretty easy just a little soldering and cutting into a project box...
