ya, of course. txs very much for your reply. moves this build past that point, though just read where i might have failed to seat the processor in it's notch

Just set up my Thermalright Ultima 90 Cooler on an Asus P5E MB(had to bend some fins on MB heatsink) and attached a Nexus 120 mm fan to the Heatsink. I have several questions: 1. The Nexus fan has a molex connector and what looks to be a 3 pin connector. The CPU fan connection on the MB is a four pi...

i read somewhere on this site that you need bearing fan for heat sink instead of sleeve fan. i've ordered everything for the new computer, including Thermalright Ultima 90 heatsink, except the heat sink fan. could someone tell me--do i need to worry whether fan is sleeve, or bearing or combo sleeve ...

Fingerguards they are on the TJ07. txs for the response.

trying to quiet this (very) noisy TJ07. Nice case though. Turns out I had several Nexus Fans laying around from my 2006 build (Athlon x4800) that I never installed. I'll use those 120 mm and 92mm, and one Scythe Slipstream 500 rpm for the Raptors in Raid. Appears the Scythe Kaze 100mm will fail to f...

txs all. particularly on the raid temps. one less fan for the TJ07!

Its the Scythe 800 rpm 120mm Slipstream that is absent on Newegg, and unable to find it anywhere else. the 92mm (100mm) Scythe Kaze also is ommitted from New egg nor am I able to see it elsewhere. Kansas City, Mo.USA. TXS for replies. anyone see where these two are available???

Unable to find: Scythe 92mm Kaze JYU Scythe 120mm Slipstream SY1225SL12L at 800 RPM 40 CFM-- anyone? silencing a Silverstone TJ07 case (or trying). three fans--92mm rear blowing in, 120mm top exhaust, and a hardrive fan 120mm 800 rpm HD fan. Also wondering if anyone knows how much RPM or CFM I need ...

txs for the tips! nice build Cerb! based on the installation difficulties and my own meager abilities i'm shying away from the Ninja. presuming Ninja mini has same installation problems. Though I'll say that my present Scythe Katana was a very easy install and keeps the x4800 at about 38-42 degrees....

We want to put together an office P.C. around a Core Duo E6850 that will do normal word processing in several different business programs, crunch some fairly large pdf files, internet video. No games. It's business. There is a fair amount of multiasking and we reboot about 5 times a day. We would li...

philly, im convinced, if i ever get to it, i can cut the noice at least in half. and, this will be very tolerable. i was surprised the review gave decibel readings at 30 db. id swear on the bible mine are at least 40 db. a post on another forum mentioned that modding with nexus fans all around deade...

ive had my black TJ07 for a couple of months in my office. a conversation piece, absolutely beautiful case. mine has zalman fanmate in the middle of the front panel and blue lighted silverstone vfd in the bottom slot--very understated artsy, a computer to dominate a room. my first build went flawles...

chaendler--what do u mean by "hope it helps". did the nexus fan swap quiet the silverstone st60f 600w psu? i find mine (this is first day up and running) seems to be noisy, but, tj07 case with so many fans its a little hard to tell. the modular cabling is very nice--makes for an attractive system, b...

hopefully someone will answer whether the seasonic s12 fits with Antec 180 w/o cable extensions. this post of interest because i just had same problem with a Silverstone TJ07. finally decided to open the Seasonic to see how long (short) the 24 pin power connect is. way too short for this case where ...

all components have arrived. i'll try to post pics after assembly in case anyone would be interested. right now, everything is on the floor waiting to go to the builder-- two month noobie search. greatly enjoyed tech sites, and forum help withthis. originally posted that we were doing office machine...

all the parts for my new build are here except the TJ07 which arrives monday. Originally I bought Evercase 4252 case (which sits beside me), and Seasonic SL12 500 PS. Later I opted for TJ07, and being newbie, wondering if the Seasonic cables will fit the TJ07. TJ07 has PS at bottom rear of case with...

relief to see my yet to be installed raptor will be quiet. for a minute u had me worried. interesting build!

i have the 4800x stock heat sink, among other miscellaneous components, sitting in front of me. there's a review of amd 4800x stock cooler at "madshrimps" website.- if i knew how to post a link. madshrimps 1/24/06 review of stock compares to thermalright xp-90, which stock outperforms slightly. dBa ...

just noticed, on Scythe website, states for Katana: "Universal Socket Compatibility. Katana cooler is compatible for socket 370/462/478/754/939/940. Your all in one solution for your PC system."

newbie q--looking for light, quiet heat sink for 4800x cpu. Schythe Katana seems to fill this bill. BUT, katana specifications include: "Athlon 64 and Athlon 64FX(all speeds) socket 754" and "Opteron socket 939 (all speeds)". Katana specs fail to include "Athlon 64x socket 939. does this ommission o...

those are interesting cases--Lian li 1000 & 2000. qs: 1. is the MB inverted. 2. can u remove the wheels. 3. what sizes are the fans. 4. do u have an estimate of noise levels of the fans. 5. does the airflow pattern cool the case--on the lian li site this looks akin to a cyclone inside the case, lol....

txs very much for making that point about the a8n32.

i have same qs, but am much the newbie. my 4800x2 is on the way with asus a8N32 deluxe mb, and corsair 3500 ram. office use without any gaming--maybe 90% low usage with 1-3 min bursts of medium to medium high usage through out day. wondering ur opinions: 1. will ninja clear this ram on MB. 2. our se...

went to tuniq website--read one of the reviews yesterday, but forget which one. but, nice compartive cooler review lists tuniq as slightly noisier at idle and "roars" at 12v load (48db). should poodle read this, wondering--his take?

erssa, believe u have the point. with the Dell 2.8 ghz dual core in raid 1 guessing,--30 min per day tapping toes waiting on things to pop or complete. as noted, time + interruption of work flow. we hope high end system will iron out for us. ronrem probably made some valid points maybe an exageratio...

sorry--started new thread -- accidently.

txs ronrem. we're soaking up info as we go. that was informative (for us) post. i am taking it t we might (if we can stand the noise) have two new raptors in a raid 5 array with the raptor portion in 0. (have read here and there raid 5 a little slower and seen several posts of raid 5 causing problem...

off topic--raid 0. im but visitor from mars. however. from what im reading, the anatech and storagereview pieces are dated, as noted by essra. in fact, if one reads the comments to the article posted on that anatech thread, there is at least one interesting comparison from the netherlands indicating...

i am having a hard time buying storage review & anatech poo poo of the raid 0, particularly after the hothardware.com review of the new raptors in raid 0. but, will, as spectator, leave my comments at that. i'll soon, unless i get run over by a truck, be able to give a full report. maybe try single ...

sadly i cross the dell btx off my case list. Dell does have the quiet computing things down. perhaps there are some lessons. txs for all the comments and in particular Essra. i carefully read the long post with all its useful info. i am one of those just passing through the tech websites as i put my...
