I think you have mounted your TT120 in the wrong direction.Quote:

Had to. As you can see its already a tight fit next to the NB cooler, so I had to have it point up. Which isn't really that bad of a deal, because it blows up into the 200 mm fan on the top of the Antec 900.Quote:

I think the HR-05 SLI may have fit in and still have the TT120 mounted the "preferred" wayQuote:

Take a look at the pics and try and imagine the TT turned the correct way. The HR-05 can't sit straight if you put the TT120 on the right way...its forced to lean a little bit...which would obviously not be good for a heatsink.Quote:

Way to go! I guess the thermalright page was wrong then as P5W is listed as not-compatible:
http://www.thermalright.com/a_page/m...r05_lga775.htm
I may get one of those now, any idea if it would fit with Big Typhoon on? :confused:

@diction10: Whats your max FSB with and without the hr-05?
Hmm its hard to say about the Big Typhoon...it looks pretty wide, I'm not sure it will. Your best bet is to look at the first 2 pics I posted and try and estimate if you think it will fit.Quote:

However I think it helps..my NB barely gets warm to the touch with it on...though the 120mm fan on the side of my case blows some air on it as well so I'm sure that helps.

sorry for the terrible pics no sata cables in the pic because I am getting new ones so didnt bother managing the oldies
http://weboperative.com/OCIDB/osamab...+/HPIM0033.JPG
This was the first boot of my RDX200, the cables are in a bit of a state but I was expecting to be pulling it all out, but so far its been running like a dream.
Just started overclocking yesterday with some new OCZ EL DDR PC-3200 Platinum's.
G'day all,
Some pics of my recent efforts on 'HTPC'
http://www.gam.net.au/pcmods/htpc/im...MG5483.25a.jpg http://www.gam.net.au/pcmods/htpc/im...MG5481.25a.jpg
http://www.gam.net.au/pcmods/htpc/im...MG5308.25a.jpg
Work log illustrating how I've modified my HTPC's generic case.
Some of the mods include:
- Front panel intake with MeshX grills and moulded fibreglass duct
- Top blow hole with anti-spill cover
- Noise dampening using adhesive foam
- Cable management mods to motherboard tray
- PSU cable alterations
- Interior paint
If you are interested, then please read on here...
Further mods to be performed include exterior paint job, maybe handles, side panel dampening and possibly small window (don't want to defeat the purpose of the noise dampening foam now, do I?), some subtle lighting 'bling' (at least behind the new front duct/grill) and any other good suggestions that people can come up with.
Cheers
GAM
that is realy clean, better then my pc.

I moved my room around and put my case on the floor next to my bipolar heater. It blows 90F air out the top and 45F air out the bottom. Well, I took advantage of the cold air and got some better clocks... 3.5GHz on my Connie for a bit on my SI-120. I had to reset my CMOS when I pushed for 3.6, too lazy to go above 3.2 now.
Cable management is quite a bit better than that since I got my 2 other hard drives for RAID... those pics were taken a few months ago.
Here is mine in my new gigabyte 3D aurora 570 case. Please excuse the fingerprints on the case :rolleyes:

@Sparky, it looks like a nice case. I like those ribbon style power cables, hmmmm...
Any mods planned?
Yes there are a few. I'm thinking of rotating the HD bay 90 degrees and making it removeable. Sidesaddle makes it easy to get drives in and out but it hurts airflow. Also this case will eventually house a watercooling setup, so the plan for that is to take out the topmost 120mm fan in the back, drop the PSU down to where it used to be, which then would give room up top for a triple rad.Quote:

If nothing else though, those stock fans have got to go - they look good but the airflow sucks. Maybe I'm just spoiled from my old aerocool turbine fans but at the same RPM those aerocools pushed a good amount more air.
Just switched from a P160 to the 900. I also posted this in the 900 review thread. Here is what I got after some cable management :)

Tommy_Hewitt what case is that? And no ramsinks on your X1900XT...?
A Lian Li G70 B with a Lian Li PC-71 Windowkit.
http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/143/dsc00011vp6.jpg
I love this Case. Much space in the inside and you can mount many 120mm fans. Vvery important for me, cause I'm a silentfreak :D
The RAMs of my X1900XT aren't very hot, so I don't need the RAMsinks ;).
OK I wasn't sure on the RAM, I have the X1900XT as well and I've heard both "no you don't need ramsinks" and others saying "yes you do" so I thought it would be best to just play it safe. But then, I guess you do have that fan blowing down on the ram so that probably helps quite a bit :)
I think GDDR3 don't need much cooling. Maybe, when you overclock a lot.....but mine only run at 800Mhz (1600Mhz) :). And the card still works great. The bigger problems are the PWMs, they get (or become? Sry, I'm not very good in english ^^) really hot. Sometimes 90°C and more
http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/9553/img3757xq6.jpg
money for an better cooler is out, but on the next weeks it's be perfekt.

Mobo is a DFI NF4 Ultra-D. The Sataports aren't placed weird, why do you think so?......and you only have to plugin the 4pin Connector when you use SLI
deepsilver your cable managment reminds me of my case :p:
He has a PCI SATA controller card in that slot, that is why some of those cables go over there.
Tommy_Hewitt, my vregs on my X1900XT rarely get over 65 C, but the cooler I have on there cools them really well. But my core runs hotter than yours does I'm sure so it is a tradeoff I guess.
the board is an dfi lanparty ultra-d, but the satacabel are ok (i thik). :DQuote:

Vregs are PWMs, aren't they? If yes: 65°C are really good. Which cooler do you have on them? How many ° has your core? I have 68°C load and 37° Idle, but i would prefer cold PWMs to a cool core.Quote:

Here is a little review I did of it. Warning, it is picture heavy, so it has a 56K warning. My first review, probably not the highest quality one, but it gives you an idea of what it looks like and how it performed for me. And I was wrong, the vregs/PWMs got to 66 C not 65 C but no big deal, 65 C was an easier number to remember :p:
Hey, I've already read your review. Nice shots of the card. I like the cooler, looks gread, but the HR-03 is also a very beautyful cooler :)

ok the pics are a little crappy being i took them with a eye toy i put alot of research into the equipment selected wile saving lota $$$, i got lucky on the zelman heat sink on my GPU, it was miss labeled at the store for only $20 so i took them up on that deal :D i found the titan for only $30 because its off brand and you pay for what you get.... well. not in this case. yea the product was made cheaply but a little bit of labor can turn the cheapest of equipment into something nice i just spent several hours lapping the bottom and it works better then anything iv yet seen on the net. im getting around 23-26 degree C idle and no more then 36 full load also some thought into the airflow helped too. the case was default to use the side panel fan as exhaust but i made it a import so that it delivers fresh air to the heat sink and it get sucked in by the fan on that and right out the back by an additional 2 80mm fans so. its pretty close to havening 4 fans on 1 heat sink. just no plastic shroud. im sure if i had some i could make the airflow more directional and get more CFMs flowing though those fins lowing it even more, anyway here are the... sadly crappy quality pics

that's pretty darn good considering my modified scythe infinity is usually around 16C *above* room ambient!
you had to install a PCI card to go along with the titan cooler, right?
nope just got a nice mirror finish on the bottom of it and 2x fans helping throw out the old hot air and the one on the side providing clean fresh air. if thats the cost of that heat sink im going back and buying a frew more LOL, thats about how much its worth and more.
if you don't have a pci card as well ... then it's most likely not the amanda; the amanda is a TEC air cooler meaning it uses a standard air cooler in conjunction with a thermo-electric cooling element (which is powered/controlled via a pci card) ...Quote:

I see you used screws and nuts instead of the plastic pushpins on the HR-05 SLI. I'm thinking of doing the same for my HR-05 - part of me just doesn't trust those things....
Yeah heres another picture of it, I got sick of the darn thing moving around everytime I had to unplug and replug some sata cables, so I just used some nuts and bolts. The stock push pins have to have the weakest springs i've ever seen.
