Just a quick update: I decided to check if using 2133mhz will work. I have these sticks: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0050119O0/ref=oh_details_o01_s02_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0050119O0/ref=oh_details_o01_s02_i03?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It didn't boot. I didn't increase the...

Do you have some pictures of your internal setup?
Still happy with your Node 304?

Will do at the middle of this month - I am very busy with work at the moment.

Yes, I am posting the temps reported from the bios.
I do not use Windows so I cannot use the apps most people use. I have tried "lm-sensors" but it's reporting a abnormally low value for the CPU temp. I will post them when I get home.

I've turned all three system fans on the Fractal Node 304 to medium.
I am getting the values below under normal load.

Cores 1-4: ~32
CPU: ~51
System: ~43

So it looks like turning on the fans helped.
What do you folks think?

Temperatures: Core1-4: ~44 CPU: ~61 System: ~54 CPU fan is spinning at 2220 rpm. This is before upping the clock from 1866MHz to 2133MHz on the RAM sticks. Temp outside is 13 degrees here in London. Reported from the BIOS after leaving it on the BIOS screen for around an hour. Is this something to ...

Thanks again.

Thanks. If I decide to pair it, I will get a Radeon HD 6670 because this supports the "CrossFiring" or "Dual Graphics" feature which the AMD APU CPU supports.

Thanks. OK, based on that, I think: I should get the A10-6700 with the Cooler Master GeminII M4. Question is: would the system allow the Patriot 8GB (2x 4GB) 2133MHz Dual Channel DDR3 if the CPU does not support it — the A10-6700 CPU only supports 1866MHz. or The A10-6800k, Fractal Design NODE 304, ...

Setting a small PC for work (Software Dev.) and occasional gaming. I might end up installing a separate GFX card in there at some point.

any more suggestions?

I just went to the shop and tried it out - It's still too loud for my liking. Compared to, say, the MS comfort curve 2000, it's way too loud.

Hi,

I'd like some recommendations for a silent keyboard. I currently have the Logitech Wave, it isn't silent by any means. Previously I owned the Logitech 3200, which again wasn't slient.

Thankss

Hello guys, I'm getting slightly worried, my temperature is constantly at 50C even when i'm not doing anything, If I do something computationally demanding such as compiling the raises up to 56C and higher. I'm using the sensors-applet 1.8.2 under Fedora 9, and the temperature ---as reported by the ...

What are good gpu temps for

1) idle
2) after playing a game for like 1 hr and 2 hrs

do you think the logitech keyboard is a bit loud pressing the keys down makes a quiet a loud noise (or this could be me cuase i've been using a laptop for the past 2 years), i think the keyboard and the dvd drive make the loudest noise, and have you noticed holes on the back of your keyboard? http:/...

yeh thanks i've turned it around, i noticed that you got a solo. Do you think the hdd supension makes a (huge) difference?

thanks

got a question, i have 3 fan mates. I am just wondering if i need them, since the abit mobo allows me to control two fans that are attached to it.

edit; ok i've turned the nexus 120mm around so its blowing out, and i've attached a 90mm nexus to the front which is connected to fan mate2. its on the lowest speed setting. here are my temps, i would like to the run the cpu fan at full rpm and lower of the 120mm nexus what do you guys think? http:/...

Huge thanks to everyone especially thejamppa. This was the first the build i've done in like 4 years so it was a huge step. Quality of the pics aren't that good mainly because i took them with the nokia n95. Pics http://picasaweb.google.com/mohbana86/PcPics SlideShow: http://picasaweb.google.com/moh...

hi,

i am going to build a system with quad core and 8800gts so i am looking forward to the replies you get. Is it a must to get a fan for the gfx card?
