Thanks for the heads up! A lot of folks have been waiting to see this in action. Looks like it'll only take up an extra slot or 2. Still the problem of exhausting the heat remains, although some users of the HR-03 don't seem to have a problem with this. My guess is the Thermalright HR-03 will be har...

Looks like your memory rebate is no longer available. If you are not going to OC the Corsair 6400 has a good rebate at NCIX and will save you a little. I think the Corsair HX520 is a better choice: quieter and modular, room for upgrades. I have one I'm thinking of selling and I also have some Scythe...

FS: Cooler Master Real Power Pro 850W PSU SOLD

Buyer backed out, so this is up for sale again. This is the 80+ revision that resolves an earlier cold boot problem w/ some MBs. Check reviews: they are generally quite positive. It also should be very quiet up to about a 400W load and then gradually ramp up to about 44db around 650W. Asking a very ...

Can I test fans with just a PSU?

Noob Question: I wanted to test a couple of fans for a new build (my first). I thought I could just open my new Corsair HX620, plug it in, then plug in the fan lead to the fan cable and the PSU, turn the power on and the fan would run. Not happening. Fan is Scythe S-Flex SFF21E. Can you test fans di...

Check this out: http://www.madshrimps.be/vbulletin/f22/ ... gen-36187/

More interesting than the renamed, or rather, now Japanese named Infinity, is the improved fan that comes with it. Hope we'll hear more about it soon!

Thanks. Not only do you have to drill holes, but you have to remove the base for the PSU cage and the base for the HDD cage. These are riveted on, so you have to drill out the rivets. Once I had the caster brackets screwed firmly in place, I reriveted the bases using black rivets. It really wasn't t...

I've installed Lian Li casters on my P182. They roll fairly well even on carpeting: http://www.box.net/p/murphyfn91862#1:658397:5082723
