    Noisy silent case - Be Quiet Dark Base 700

    Well. I am away from my pc now but when I initially installed it the top panel was so hot I couldn't hold my hand on it. Installed the 2 extra 140mm intake fans and now it's just warm. I'll just switch the damned thing to air cooling when I get the time :)

    Noisy silent case - Be Quiet Dark Base 700

    I still believe in the case, but the cpu cooler is a disappointment. I tried another AIO cooler many years ago and it was also noisy. But that was a single 120mm rad one. Having 360mm I was convinced it would be a better buy. But in hindsight they still can't compete with a good aircooler for...

    Noisy silent case - Be Quiet Dark Base 700

    I don't think you know the brand Be Quiet then :).. It's pretty expensive stuff, and comes highly recommended for building quiet gaming systems. Just as fractal does, but they don't do PSU's and I wanted the same fan noise profile across the case, which is why everything that can possibly have...

    Coffee Lake ITX build - w. questions

    I get your points, but this is supposed to be a high-end gaming pc for the next 3 years. I will upgrade the GPU to what's supposed to be GTX 2080 or whatever the name will be. Midrange GPU's won't do. The 980 is only there until that new GPU shows up. I may even wait with buying until those are...

    Coffee Lake ITX build - w. questions

    That's why I'm considering the MSI Micro-ATX - if the 4 slots has any benefit Oh, and thanks for the heads up on the NVME.. I just did a quick look in to it, and yes the NVME's are faster, by 0/100's to 0/10's of a second.. Sooo, not worth it. Any recommendations for 1TB SSD's? And I like...

    Coffee Lake ITX build - w. questions

    Hi guys and gals, Planning to build a new ITX based Coffee Lake gaming pc. Due to space and girlfriend requirements, I'm trying to build small, quiet and nice. I have never build anything but full ATX builds, and it's been awhile. So I'm pretty much going all in here. CPU: 8700k Motherboard...

    NSA Hides Spying Backdoors into Hard Drive Firmware

    Just accept the fact that government agencies knows what you're doing if they want to. I'm pretty sure they don't care that you look a "teen lesbian" catagories or that you're stalking your ex on facebook after 2 beers..

    Razer Unveils Updated Naga MMO Gaming Mouse

    I don't get why they moved the two buttons from Naga v1 from the front to behind the scroll wheel. They are useless there it seems, and at least for me those 2 are the most important buttons. Now I have to get a Molten edition if I need to replace my Naga.

    Top 10 games from the past you want to see redone and why

    I just really didn't like Quake.. I bought a Voodoo card to play the damn thing even.. Multiplayer was ok though, but Quake multiplayer topped with Quake 3 imo.. Still wasn't as good as the org. Unreal Tournament though. Doom had a MUCH better atmosphere and gameplay. I think Quake struggled...
