ooo tommy, where are those hr-05-ifx's available from?

[Tommy_Hewitt]

I bought it from PC-Cooling.de

[emoners]

@Tommy_Hewitt: AWESOME Thermalright setup mate! Planning to do the same.

I wonder, would it matter if the 120mm fan on the Ultra-120Ex be on the other side (blowing heat AWAY from the HS) than TOWARDS the HS? & would you recommend putting a fan on the HR-07s?

Thanks!

[Tommy_Hewitt]

Hehe, thank you

I think it wont matter if you put the fan on the other side. And on the HR-07 you dont need a fan

[HaGGaRd]

Just got done putting in my new fans tell me how it looks.

Front


Side


Side w/ flash on


Top w/ 120mm fan instead of 90mm

nice, really like what you've done with your case
hey danny what sort of temps do you get with this setup?

[`danny]

I first made an incision with a dremmel to hide some of the cables like the 24 pin and some other ones. I removed the two 90mm fans since they were kind of useless and I mounted a 120mm to the top instead via tie wraps. I also took the plastic cover off which reduced airflow a ton. Added 2 icages + 2 TT 1225 Led 120mm fans to the front. My idle temps @ 3.5ghz~1.43v (E6420) are Core0: 22C, Core1: 25C according to Core Temp. The added fans dropped temps about 3 or 4 degrees Celsius.

@tiborrr,
I am thinking of my AMD stock HSF for vid card cooler as well, and got wonder how you managed to sit it on the vid card. Can you give some more pictures and hopefully get some instruction?

Thank you,

It's been done with two M3 threaded bolts and wing nuts. The TR SKU-800 weights about 900 grams and that's nothing for an X850XT and two M3 bolts. Temperatures were very close to ones i got with watercooling, even on an voltmoded card @ 1.65Vgpu at 650MHz (sucky overclocking gfx, i know)

My Striker Extreme died = RMAd, then my P5n32E-SLI I bought arrived DOA = RMAd, so I am mixing parts between 2 PCS.

what temps do you have in there?

quad and 2900 crossfire is just to much heat for me

nice and powerful rig you have there

Gets VERY VERY VERY VERY HOT. I am planning on drilling intake holes on the bottom of the case to let cool air into the bottom GPU, and back to water cooling the QUAD. I have just been too lazy to install my WC lately.

[karateo]

why don't you drill outtake holes on the top of your case and change all the other fans (front and rear) to bring cool air in.

or if you are too lazy try the same without drilling holes, but instead put an outtake fan on the front - top at 5.25' place

What´s the temp?

Very l33t sexy machine m8

Love the Colour Contrast, red and black...

Though I'm a Nvidia fanboy (well sort of, I like them ) I loved teh 2 ATI Crossfire.

Red Cable Sleeving would PWN!

Now for my (modest... LOL) setup.

Below Zalman without stock fan (only pic I have atm), lost teh LED and modded one Noiseblocker XE2 following an howto here in XS





Keep it closed in my Extremengine 3T so not much to see in teh end... LOL



Changed teh rig after that and got a vf900 on my 7900. Waiting for teh perfect case to come along (have a crush on TT Armor )...

Behave!

Wow danny, nice work
If only the case was all alluminium and alot lighter, I would probably go for it, and adapt like what you've done.
I need a light weight case because I do alot of lanning so thats why I choose a Lian-Li.

Updated My Air Cooled Rig..

Poo Or Not... Updated the BIOS and the temp is reading higher but no load is still 25 Deg C.

Spent the day adjusting the computer for a new CPU and a much longer GPU.. 8800GTX OC2

Each Front Fan is Variable.

All HDD are reversed.

Southbrige Cooler Clocked to make room..

I love how clean it is and the third fan makes the front look..

[Makubex_GB]

Looks awesome Brian, very nice. But... no optical drive? External maybe?

[Spawne32]

I must say brian, very nice, love the colors that its putting out in the dark, what color CFL's are you using?
