Isn't your CPU heatsink fan the wrong way round? It's pulling air from top and pushing it down rather than the other way round.

Is there no way that u can rotate the CPU cooler +90 degree so it blow out and not on the video PCB?

Looking forward to see the output of this rig.

He can just flip the fan the other way round if he didn't have space to place it on the bottom.

Actually I was asking if it was possible (or not) to turn the heat sink and fan 90 degree. 180 degree would be OK/better if there is an exhurst fan in the top. The photo does not show if that is the case.

yea its holding the fan onto the heatsink. I know its kinda ghetto. I can turn the fan to blow out the back and i have but the way it is now gives best CPU and NB temps so i am leaving it like that.

btw the way the heatsink is now is sucking cool air from outside of the case because the top 140mm fan broke and i haven't replaced it yet

Oops sorry, I misread your post

. If I'm not mistaken that's an Antec 300, so he has a top exhaust just above the heatsink as well as the rear one we can see. 90 degree or 180degree should be fine either way since it's very close to both exhausts. Just needs the fan pushing the air through the heatsink in the right direction.

EDIT: gah always post after the answer

ok seems p_o_s_pc had a good reason for that

your right it is a 300. I didn't think to try the fan that way(i thought i tried things every way i could. I will turn the fan around and keep an eye on temps. But so far blowing down seems to give me the best temps for this setup...

btw the GPU is just a temp till i get the $$$ for the 5850

What about adding a fan to the side panel? IIRC it should have mounting holes for a 120, so cold air from the side and pushing out the top might help CPU. Although I have no idea what it might do to your NB temps. Well, just thought I'd give some advice in case you can enjoy cooler temps.

Sorry to nitpick, but i7 9xx are LGA 1366 and i3/5 and i78xx are LGA 1156. People sure are giving you a lot of shit about your setup POS.

So I wrote 1366 wrong. Thank for pointing it out. I for one was not inteending to "give shit" only asking questions. Sorry if You got that wrong.

t77snapshot · Jan 27, 2010, 06:42 PM

I noticed the cpu fan configuration as well, but I know pospc is an intelligent guy so I'm sure there was a good reason for it. Crunching rigs don't have to look nice, they just have to perform well.

Oh, I forgot that commenting that something looks like a ghetto mod was a term of endearment- I must be crazy.

No big on the socket, I just did not want to confuse anyone as Intel is doing a good enough job at that right now anyway.

Hey Tim, looks nice man.

Nice being here, but American humor is different from where I come from so better leave before it get nasty.

Guys that was just a complete misunderstanding on both of your parts. Put that behind you and let's get along shall we?

Yeah definitely a misunderstanding, Im in for forgetting about it

p_o_s_pc · Jan 27, 2010, 08:13 PM

does this look better?
here is my i7 AGAIN but in a different case with a different PSU

mstenholm · Jan 27, 2010, 08:16 PM

Much better.

I really don't want the change team but I didn't want to spend time in the forum if I was misunderstood (broken english, other side of the pond you know). Water under the brigde, lets keep crunching and folding.

t77snapshot · Jan 27, 2010, 08:18 PM

Hopfully if things go right I will be adding an Athlon 5600+ and a Phenom 9950 build.

I will post pics soon....

Looks damn good p_o_s, can we get some more pics of it please?

douglatins · Jan 28, 2010, 12:04 AM

Crunchers and Folders don´t need to look good, since you get extra "credits" from doing something good with the pc, so looks are secondary.

Now this one could be doing anything It would still be awesome (though i think every one has seen these one)
