I built one of these for my wife's work computer, and I really liked it... Simple but with much potential... It's a microATX case, but you can put 4 120 mm fans in it... I wasn't thrilled with the HDD mounts, but then I realized that the drives / cages wouldn't be in the way of the front fan. It's not amazing for space / features, and not the sturdiest case I've dealt with, but I was still pretty impressed... Get a fan controller for the 4 fans and you can go from silent to freezing...

I still prefer watercooling. Almost no noise and unbelievable thermal control.

Of course, I've progressed to the stage of milling my own blocks, using fuel-line hose for the tubing, raiding a car scrapyard for the radiator, and an aquarium pump.

Reply to mugz

Ah, but can your comp take off under it's own fan power, no, thought not.

It could, once.

Actually, it just used to fall over when the 'fan' switched on. Centrifugal blower raided off a site, and the sheer starting torque of the motor would cause the case to tilt in the opposite direction of spin.

Reply to mugz

Impressive.

Then again the only thing that stops my one doing it is that damn gravity.

Found a good side case fan you can use as an alternative to water cooling ....

I got it off an old Convex Mainframe a few years ago - seriously.

This one take the fingers for keeps ... I have a speed controller on it and a 12v/240v relay for bootup ... check out the max cfm.

NASTY !!

Sound?

The main problem I am having now is with the vid card. Things sounds like a mini-vac when running, and the side fan on the desk makes me feel like I am getting baked.


No, not that baked.

Watercool it, and light a joint.

Reply to mugz

WC is just a PITA though, and rather expensive if you want something more than stolen surgical tubing.

I was thinking of doing that way back in the era of SUPER OC'ing, but I never went through with it ($$).

As for lighting a joint, I tried that once, but I just couldn't keep my elbow lit.

Watercooling is well worth the pain in the rewards you get.

Next time try your neck.

Reply to mugz

Yes ... very quiet mugz but I have three dead watercooling kits (pumps died) in my shed.

Mind you I bought cheap stuff ... Thermaltake and Gigabyte.

Should have got a decent aftermarket pump like a Swiftech 655.

Apologies for the tech post ...

Why were you trying to watercool your shed?

One's shed is where one puts all of one's dead things ... or the cars.

Or my stomach.

------------------------------ "Most people just wipe away the jism and try to erase the memory..."
Reply to WingDing

That's dead things only.

For pumps, try visiting one of them shops where you can buy aquarium equipment. Look for the brand 'Eheim'. Bear in mind you'll need a relay since it's a 120VAC/240VAC pump.

My new kitten arrives next month. Then it's just a matter of time to see if the title 'evil-minded bitchcat' will fit.

I'm probably going to call her 'Five'.

Surely 7 would be more apt. [/of 9(lives)]

Although I like the 7 of 9. idea... except I'd call her Six.
