Mini P180 + Scythe Orochi + Crossfire

Post by BrytaPlanka » Thu Oct 30, 2008 9:52 am

Hi!
Im just dreaming a little and thinking about a cool computer build and think I found something interesting.

Here is a Mini P180 with a Scythe Orochi :lol:

He use the Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R motherboard.

So I was thinking, maybe if I use the DFI LP JR P45-T2RS motherboard instead: http://img372.imageshack.us/img372/4682/img0249bu2.jpg

Then put two GV-R485MC-1GH in crossfire. (a passive HD4850 from Gigabyte)

And a Silverstone ST45NF Power Supply:

I think that would be awsome, what do you think? 8)

Actually, I dont know.. :oops:
I just thought because its insane size that it would cool the best, and the fins of the Orochi would be very close to the chassi fans for cooling to.

Maybe there is no reason to have such a huge cooler...
Maybe another cooler like a ninja or something with a reasonable good CPU would be a better choise in reality...

Would look cool though! :D
Please build it and upload some pics if you got the money to purchase it. :wink:

I think that thermalright HR-01 Plus would be the best choice for quiet. Or if you want ultimate performance with some noise Ultra extreme or even IFX-14 (Which should work fanless also). One thing you should do with Tr products is lapping cooler and CPUs heatspeader.
