Ah I ordered the Venomous X Sunday, the Noctua looks pretty nice tho... regret? Well there isn't a significant difference, so the X isn't trash, going to run it with a Scythe Kama Flow PWM fan on my i7 920 21*180 / 1.34v and see how cold it drops. BTW is it really recommended to run it with dual fan...

Cool, thanks for the advice, tho the "might" and dropping unknown Artic fans scared me a bit. What really is the problem isn't picking the Venomous X or the TRUE (I read that review up there, and read other reviews, I'dd def pick the Venomous X if you told me Scythe fans where awesome as heatsink hu...

I'm pretty much split between the Venomous X (hard to get) or the TRUE (easy to get). I can't get a Nexus at a reasonable price (30$/each), so I have to pick an other fan for either of these. Anyway, atm, it's either a TRUE+Nexus fans, or a Venomous X with Scythe/Gelid fan. It's to use on an overclo...

Hey, I'm looking for a TV tuner. My tv input is just Analog. Pretty much every TV tuner comparison charts or recommendations are about HD stuff. I don't want to pay 100$ for a HD Tuner, are there any available around. While I don't want to pay a ton, I don't want something that will degrade the qual...

Bump. The only PWM fans available at the shop I have in mind at the Scythe Kama 120MM (DFS122512L-PWM) and the Scythe Slip Stream PWM 120MM (SY1225SL12M-P). If the reviews are right and PWM (or the lack of) doesn't affect the round up results, I guess the Slip Stream L12M is a better choice. Does it...

I just wanna make sure, does the fan need to support PWM, or is PWM a feature of the motherboard to undervolt a fan, and a "PWM Fan" simply undervolts better ? Or is there a PWM element in PWM fans that aren't in other fans (ie, a chip or something) ? Also, since the Venomous isn't sold by EndPCNois...

So your saying to wait till the GeForces 400 come out ? I don't mind waiting, but I wont wait for a 500$ card. I know that DX10 sucks and I want the best bang for my money, so I wont buy a 260GTX, so I'll just wait, Q1 ends in 2 weeks and they said the GF400 would come out in Q1 right? Tho remember ...

Well if the Venomous X is really superior to the TRUE, then I might as well buy it from NCIX. But can you explain what PWM is ? I guess it's a feature of the mobo that lets it control fan speeds. Therefore it only matter than my fan can rev up high enough to get enough CFM to cool the heatsink when ...

I forgot to mention it but the CPU is overclocked, therefore I don't know if it even downclocks when idle.

And I dont know much about the Venomous, I didn't see it in the chart im looking at in SPCR and there doesn't seem to be any test data around.

I can't seem to decide witch. The TRUE looks like it's gunna fall off my mobo any second, I don't have anything against the Noctua except that SPCR ranked it lower than the TRUE. I'm planning on using it in a P182 where there is a top and rear fan and the PSU is at the bottom. Will I got some interf...

I'm currently shopping EndPCNoise for a CPU heatsink, and I need a bit to get my order to 100$ to have free shipping, so I'm thinking maybe it's possible to change the rear/top fans on my P182 with some Nexus fans. The thing is that those 2 fans are connected in some manner to external switches, is ...

I'm currently shopping for a new video card (Upgrading from a EVGA GeForce 8800GTS 640mb) and my budget is around 200$, I've narrowed it down to 2 cards right now: XFX Radeon HD 5770, 1GB GDDR5 Palit GeForce GTX 260 Sonic, 896MB @ 625mhz/1100mhz Both at 190$ CAD. But first of all I don't know if the...
