There is one fan that i would really like to see tested because of its special purpose as intake fan and that is the Silverstone Air Penetrator. Its focused flow fan should be great for pushing air specifically across hdd bays or pushing out hot air from GPU into the PCI brackets. I have this fan at...

The best thing would be to have two 12 CM PWM fans blowing air on the S1. You would need the PWM adapter - http://www.quietpc.com/products/casefanaccessories/gel-pwm-vga-cable and the PWM splitter - http://www.quietpc.com/products/casefanaccessories/gel-pwm-cable After you connect both fans to the ...

You should add another fan to the s1. Inspiration here - http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=64355 8) Thank you for the tip. I might actually do this because i might buy Noctua PWM fan on ebay. Then i will have another NF-P12 free so might as well use it. Do i suck out the air...

It's in the article : http://www.tichepc.sk/Vyhladavanie?arg0=vibration%20killer Considering you will probably have some issues with the website in slovak language anyway (plus website doesn't describe the shipping costs to other countries anyway), i suggest you to write GABO, using email address t...

Antec did good on the P18x series but oh boy they fucked up now. Talk about not know what your customers like. They were problably just lucky with the P18x series considering what they spit out this time.

I could not belive my eyes !

It's here.

This looks interesting. 220cfm@12v(if we say we belive the manufacturer). I wonder how it sounds at 5v or below.

OK. I now know i have somehow damaged my gainward card because after i now have a XFX card with accelero installed and it works perfectly fine. I dont have the stuttering problem anymore. I have some concerns thou. I had Idle temps of 39-42c wich is great for modern graphics cards but i have a load ...

OK. good to know.

Thanks for the reply Fallsroad. Im using everest to monitor temps on cpu,gpu and hdds. My HDD temp is like 28-38c depending on how much i work it. My CPU temp is like 38-42c idle and 55-60c load when i have the case open. My GPU temp is between 39-42c idle and i havent yet played any games so im not...

Very nice of WD but in my opinion since you dont need a system drive to be more then 50-70gb at the most you might as well wait a year for SSDs to get below $100. SSDs wont cost much in a year or so... reason computer stuff have crappy second hand value is because the new stuff arent getting more ex...

hmm... seems i might have to buy a new GPU. Im gonna contact a friend and ask to borrow a old GPU from him too see if the problem is with the GPU i have or if its just something with windows. If its just windows i will just install XP instead but if its the GPU it means im forced to buy a new one as...

hmm... i guess i will try with better ram sinks AND zip tying a fan directly on the GPU... if that still doesent fix it i guess i just threw away a $200 card because i thought i was gonna be able to have the cake and eat it as well (cooler without more sound).

Ok just to update everyone on my HELL! I couldnt get the accelero to fit without tinsnipping the back fins of the DVI port. I mustered up the courage and did this effectivly fucking up any chance of warranty. I finally got the accelero to fit and was so happy. One problem thou is that 2 of the ram h...

Very nice. I know what a pita job it is to apply sounddampening.

I do not understand however why the HR-01 plus is not ranked above the TRUE on the recommendation page. Is is just a matter of not updating or what?

Yeah i guess bending the fins of the accelero is another way to go... hmm the fins are thick so i would need special workbench for that anyways so i will try with removing the dvi first. edit!: I just noticed u linked to a S2... i have a S1 with 4 heatpipes. (i was referring to the heatpipes and not...

I cant belive my luck. I bought a Accelero S1 to replace the HSF on my VGA card(Gainward Geforce 9600GT) and it seems i wont be able to fit it onto the GPU chip because of interference from the back of one of the DVI outputs. This GPU has 2xDVI,1xDP,1xHDMI so it becomes pretty crowded when it comes ...

Haha... i was soo hopefull of antecs coming case. Thank god i own the P182 before they replace it. If i ever feel this case isnt enough i will problably go onto a Cosmos 1000 and mod it instead... i feel its the only case that with a little changes to its structure like HDD cooling could be a perfec...

Thanks for the help lor77.

Hmm... Does the E6600 run alot cooler then the Q6600? I cant really make a comparison between your system and mine since the cputemps u get are going to be diffrent since you have a dualcore and i have a quadcore.

Lor77: Could you tell me how i can remove the lower compartment HDD rack mounts? and the stupidly build fan mount. Cant use a screwdriver and i tried using a spearlike tool i had and thought maybe thats what its for but i dont really know how thats supossed to work. Also does anyone know if theres a...

Welcome to SPCR! Im a newbie here but i can give you a tip. The Cosmos 1000 case is very big and has discreet looks. It can easily fit 2x9800GX2 and has room for watercooling a plenty since if you really want 2x9800GX2 and want a quiet system you will definitly need to go with watercooling. Bear in ...

when im running stock speed on cpu and highest rpmspeed on fans i still dont get below 59c.... most people can OC a Q6600 to 3ghz and still have under 60c... i know this means they are using 1200rpm on fans but even when i do use 1200rpm on my fans i still dont go below 60c... i dont think its the f...

thanks for the feedback. I might just wait a couple of months and then try and sell my processor and buy a Q9300 or Q9450 instead. Wont have to worry about too high temps with thoose i guess. FYI: Right now im running at stock settings and @2.4ghz and 1.264v(CPU-Z) full load my temps are 65c on hott...

I have a GO stepping.

I will try adding a fan as exhaust on the top to see what effect it has on the temps. I could have sweared i saw some people that had alot better loadtemps then me .

OK i have never heard of those programs. Also i have tried going down 1 notch on Vcore but it wont run stable on anything under 1.3v@3ghz. Might be a platue thou (meaning it will run stable at 3.2ghz@1.3v as well or stable at 2.9ghz@1.25 or something.) One thing i forgot to mention is that even thou...

Hi everyone... hope you arent tired of me yet. :) I need some advice as i built a system that at first was very loud. After i tinkered with diffrent stuff i have found a good soundlevel. Now i need some help with a side-effect wich is weird temps. Current set up is: P182 Asus P5K-E Wifi Q6600@3ghz(1...

can someone delete this thread... i have a totally diffrent problem.

[Mod: Start a new thread, if you need to!]

Good job on putting the fan in bottom compartment. Ideal would be for you to get a WD caviar green power and put it in a enclosure and soft mount it in the bottom compartment. I can problably stack atleast 2-3 drives on top of each other. Hopefully u can have both the HDDs in enclosures and the fan ...
