I'm just looking at the new Zalman LQ1000 Z-Machine Hybrid Liquid Cooled Case . It's quite pricey but not too bad if you consider the seperate prices of a decent full alu case and seperate watercooling parts. http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=4488 http://www.awd-it.com/ProdImages/...

Has anybody tried an Origen AE case before? A friend has one of the low end models but had to get it shipped over from germany as they couldnt find stock in the UK. I'm just looking at the range and WOW they do some cool stuff. http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodList.asp?supplier=101 Origen AE S21T H...

I've run a vx450 with 2 x 9600 gt and an e8200. all worked fine. http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=3053 http://www.awd-it.com/ProdImages/3053_l.jpg and 2 of these Zotac GeForce 9600 GT AMP 512MB http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=3522 http://www.awd-it.com/ProdIm...

It looks like a beast!!!

Shame it's a bit out of my budget, it seems to have every toy under the sun!!

They seem to be available here in the UK now for £37.50 + vat

Corsair VX 450W Ultra Quiet PSU

Personally i'd give this board a go

Abit IP35 Pro Intel P35
http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... oduct=3011

It's suppose to be the most stable P35 board available according to many reviews.

£28.95!! how cheap!!!

http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... oduct=1617

These seem to be really cheap now.

Does anybody wana buy my 2gb kit

awd have them in stock, they have been shipped early, mine is arriving with me tomorrow :D after looking at many reviews the E6420 is the one to go for, the E4400 has been tested and turned out to be rubbish at overclocking. But as standard compared to the E6320 it did pull past it on most tests apa...

i plan to run 32bit at first, ive already had alot of hassle with some of the apps i use.

yes they are also releasing the new e6600 and above models, with the same cache, but with 1333fsb instead of 1066fsb

if you have firewire, you may want to consider a MyBook Pro drive.
Firewire is so much faster than USB2.0!!

I've got my E6420 on pre-order. Cant wait. From looking at reviews they overclock just as well if not better than the E6400. The E6420 has 4mb of cache compared to the 2mb of cache on the E6400. It has a higher multiplier than the e6300/e6320 which means you dont need to run a silly high FSB if you ...

I've been looking for some upgrade parts this week, and cant belive how cheap Corsair XMS2 DDR2 has dropped in price. I paid almost double this amount a month ago for the 2GB kit of 6400. I was tempted to get the dominator as its so cheap, but its cas4 and wont go with my standard 6400 stuff. http:/...

iv just had a 400GB HD400LJ was only £73 inc VAT http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... oduct=1388

Silent as a mouse compared to my previous 250GB Western Digital drive even though I previously used Scythe Hard drive silencers.

I got mine here http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... oduct=1454
They were the cheapest when I searched all night for the cheapest including shipping etc, and they also ship to most european countries.

Cant fault it at all, very quiet after ditching my Enermax Liberty.

you could also consider using one of these. http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=1400 http://www.quietpc.com/files/images/products/fb123installed.gif The HR-05 is also a good choice http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=1292 http://www.quietpc.com/files/images/products...

NSk4400
http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... roduct=327

I prefer the NSk3300 but only fits an mATX board.

Just got one of these, using the silver front on my Coolermaster Pretorian case. Looks a bloody treat and works well.

Ill get some pics up when I get my cam back.

Im not 100% sure if the Ninja will fit, it wouldnt fit in my Coolermaster case (not wide enough) I would consider the Si-128. With it being so slim at the bottom theres nothing iv come across that it wont fit. And as long as you have a case fan close by you can run passive cooling. http://www.awd-it...

you defo need an Si-128. You should be able to run passive with just one case fan running. See the link for more details.

Mike

cheers for the info.

Ive got mine running passively with an X2 chip. there is a 120mm case fan just behind it tho. They seem to have come down in price recently.

http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView. ... oduct=1433 < under £200 inc vat.

i've got an LC17, and i'm happy with it. But I would still go for an Antec Fusion unless you must use a full size atx board.

Mike

Have you considered the Antec Fusion case http://www.awd-it.com/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=331 Its identical to the NSk2400, but it has a volume control knob, VFD, and a silver drive cover. It also has a 430w PSU. I also agree on using the Si-128 Cooler. They do work well with the Fusion and NSK...

Id also look at the Antec NSK3300 case.

Any maybe the Asus P5L-MX. Theres no advantage with the P5B unless your going to overclock the CPU.

Hi I've built many systems (not by choise ) in the Aria case, and every one was fine until you put some load on the cpu, and it would end up sounding like a microwave. These is 0 airflow through the case. It just needs some slight mods to make it an amazing case, such as 2 very slow spinning 80mm fa...

I would think a X1600Pro

Thermalright V1-Ultra?
Zalman ZM80D-HP?

arctic cooling are usually the first to come up with a new cooler. They stick wit ha basic design and mod the copper plate to touch the card in the right places, keeping the newer models cheap but effective
