Re: Anyone use a Western Digital AV drive?

I have a 500gb av-25 one. It is not very quiet. I think other 5400 rpm drives are better.

Hey, I just saw that the 5750 gets a vapor-x cooler from sapphire on the 3rd of nov. This means the 5870 vapro-x will probably come the same day :) And hopefully the 5850 (the one i am getting) vapor-x will be released :D. Who here are waiting for this release ? I am hoping for some nice reviews :D

Re: Zotac ECO cards (claims 40% lower power consumption)

Was wondering if anybody had one of these and what their experiences are. The stock cooling is obviously not up to SPCR's standards, but if the power consumption claims are true, these cards would be excellent candidates for aftermarket passive cooling. Here's a link to the ECO 9800GT 1GB on their ...

Re: considering 9600gt or 4670

My processing requirements are in the range of the 9600/4670. I have been happy with the accelero S1 on various cards for some time, usually with an undervolted fan. There are many fanless models out there, but it seems that most are not as effective as an accelero s1. Anyone know of a fanless 4670...

Re: CM Sileo or Antec Mini P180

I just ordered another Sileo for a computer for a friend (already have one that i'm really happy with regarding soundlevel) but turns out i'll have to wait for a few weeks to get it. I can get a Mini P180 for the same price but i'm unsure if it's as quiet as the Sileo. I've read both reviews here a...

I own a Phenom II X4 905e and i use it in a antec nsk2480. I use a scythe mini ninja with 2 scythe slipstreams @ 700RPM in the case. I have this machine folding 24/7 and the temps never get over 33 degrees :D

If your case fits the Scythe ninja, use it. Else use the mini ninja.

Re: Advice on Powering an Antec Aria (NSK1300/NSK1380)

If you want to go with a passive solution you should replace your processor with a Effecient version. Look for the Amd Phenom II X4 905e, a quad core with 65 watt tdp. Then look at this power supply: http://www.mini-box.com/s.nl/it.A/id.301/.f?sc=8&category=981 This will only work if you only have l...

Scythe musashi fit in Antec Fusion/NSK2480 ?

Hello, I am planning on putting a new vga cooler on my video card. I would like it to be the Scythe musashi. But because the cooler is pretty large i would like to know if it fits the Antec Fusion/NSK2480 height wise? I think there is some modding involved but that does not matter, i just would like...

At $199, the 4850 is a smoking deal. I find that an odd recommendation as the 4770 is basically just as fast at 1680x1050 and is half the cost. but with the 4770 you really need to replace that fan... It is really load. THenk again, even if you buy the best vga cooler it is still cheaper then the 4...
