I think you actually mean Volts, and not Watts in this case. Good temps non-the-less.

Ordered some of that dynamat/akasa noise dampening material a couple weeks ago from Crazy PC and finally got a chance to fight w/ it. Wicked sticky stuff! But it covered the poor stacker's lame grayness and got rid of the directionally variable high frequency whine from the raptors for about $10 so I'm pumped! I think the next step from here will be to paint the exterior. I'm thinking yellow w/ black stripes.

If you don't watch out, that GTX is going to eat your apple. :P

@OverDozed - Is this soundcard that should be put on PCI-e then you just used some connectors? What do you call that kind of connector and where to find it? Thanks

It's a Bernstine Audio Card that comes with DFI high end motherboards such as UT or LT series. They connect by a special connection only high end DFI boards have. I believe it can not be used in other motherboards. Just think of it as onboard sound on a little card itself like that Asus Supreme FX.

Thanks for the answer mate

I believe the audio card itself is suitable only for DFI right? but the special connectors (whatever they call them) can be use to other audio card?

Some last minute pictures before i7 upgrade.

Mate props to you, that is a SENSATIONAL setup.

I've never seen that done before... actually now i think about it friends of mine are into car audio in big ways i should go chat to them about their materials as they are forever pulling setups in/out so an abundance of deadening would be easy to get.

Looks very professional and very different... would go well with some PC's im building for a bit of a special look!

Yeah, good paint job in spots, but some places have colors imbalanced, like the HDD area in Silver, imo. I'd run a Blood Rage mobo(red, inside case), but I wouldn't have stuff red on the outside. Different colors for different fellas.

Right, it's only for DFI.
Dont think you can use it for another audio card

OMG! how did you manage to get two hr-03gt on one card ? Overkill.

**fatguy1992** · 03-20-2009, 05:43 PM

Wow thats just awesome and overkill

**jbl2226h** · 03-20-2009, 06:48 PM

**Slyr7.62** · 03-20-2009, 08:10 PM

jbl2226h, HR-01 HSF? That's one of the HSF's I'd like to get someday, or just one where 2 fans can be mounted easier.

**AMZ** · 03-20-2009, 09:17 PM

I cant put the side window with Hyper212

**Jodiuh** · 03-20-2009, 09:40 PM

There in there w/ dirt bike tubes. I used to wind them up once, but now I just push them in there and they stay put pretty well. Major improvement in noise reduction compared to the stock Stacker 4 in 1 HDD cage.

Here's some pics...

First I drilled some holes for the zipties...

Then added the tubes and tied em up.

Finished views.
