Tj08-e ivy bridge build with Megahalems
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2012 2:12 pm
Hello,
I'm planing to build this system for my brother. I plan on using the 180 mm stock intake fan on the low setting.
CPU Intel i5 3570K
Heatsink Prolimatech Megahalems CPU Cooler Rev.C
CPU-cooler Noctua NF-P12 120mm fan
Output fan Noctua NF-S12B ULN 120mm fan
GPU MSI GeForce GTX 680 2GB PhysX CUDA Twin Frozr III
Mobo MSI Z77MA-G45
Case Silverstone Temjin TJ08-E
PSU Seasonic X-760 X-Series 80+ Gold 760W
RAM Corsair Vengeance - 16 GB - Low profile - CL8
SSD (SRT) Corsair Force Series GT - Solid state drive - 60 GB
HDD Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 - 2 TB
Sound Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD / PCI Express
I have a couple of questions for you guys:
* Is it possible to use Megahalems with the HDD cage supplied with the TJ08?
* Would it be smart to buy a 92mm fan to blow air from the 180 mm intake fan to the GPU and PCIe sound card? E.g. Noctua NF-B9 92mm (1600 rpm). Look at the images below if you are uncertain what I mean:
Thanks in advance!
Best,
Peter
