Re: High End GPUs and "The Mod"
Just wanted to add my 2c here. I performed this on my son's 560ti in his SG05 case with the radiator placed in the traditional SG05 location with a push/pull arrangement. It went from having 4 fans in the case to 5 but the overall result is a large reduction in load noise at the expense of a slight ...

Intel SB Stock Cooler: PWM vs Voltage control
My mobo (Gigabyte H67N-USB3-B3 ITX) allows control of the HSF to be either PWM or voltage. I started using it as PWM but the idle speed of 1300 RPM was noticeable (CPU is i5-2500K). I changed it to voltage and the idle speed dropped to 500RPM and the fan noise is buried beneath the PSU fan now. Prim...

Re: Low-profile silent cooler for i7 2600k
If the Shuriken overlaps then the Kozuti probably will as well since its nearly identical width.

Re: Why do you have a SFF computer?
Too bad the OP didn't add an "All of the above" or make it a multi-choice poll. I agree with Mats as well in that it is a matter of taste or style. My main PC is a Mac mini and while its more expensive than a tower for the same functionality it ticks all my boxes otherwise (energy efficient, small a...

Re: Zotac mini-ITX Z68 motherboard
Gigabyte won't have anything until next year. Someone from gigabyte said so on hardforum.Bill Fox wrote:Looks like we are only a week or so away from the US release. Nothing from Asus or Gigabyte as to whether they will be jumping in or not with an ITX Z68 form factor.

Re: Zotac mini-ITX Z68 motherboard
I'll probably end up with this board since I want the over/under clocking. I don't need the wifi but no one else seems to want to put out a z68 mitx board. I read somewhere that Gigabyte won't have one until next year.

SFF Gaming/General Purpose iMac Replacement.
My two teenage boys are currently using 3.5yo iMacs. They have been great machines but are surely showing their age. Since they are primarily using Windows, I thought it would be a good time to switch to a SFF machine that could replicate some of the unique features of the iMac, namely low noise, lo...
