Mine works fine, I use it all the time to transfer things to my phone .

Are you aware you have to install the drivers for it that came on the disk?

My current desk setup for my laptop.. just got the new Razer Mamba 4G from work for much cheaper than retail price, I'm very happy at the moment, just missing a beastly rig . Sorry for the grainy photo, these pics were taken from a tablet.

nice

@brandon, the other board was a Biostar A780L BIOSTAR A780L AM2+/AM3 AMD 760G Micro ATX AMD Moth...

the new one is in my specs... Ecs IC780M-A. its doing pretty well so far. ran all night with no issues. It doesnt like to boot with my phone plugged in though lol. it'll support a 6 core phenom and up to 32gb ddr2.. they had other boards there but this was the only one with 4 ram slots and a heat spreader on the VRMs for the cpu. I'll do some gaming when i get home to see how the ram holds up.

New WC setup. The quad rad is a bit overkill but I got it for a good price.

Yeah its upside down had to place it that way due to tube spacing issues. Haven't ran into any problems with it so far.

If I read you loop order right (pump on bottom -> res -> dual rad -> CPU -> quad rad -> GPU -> pump), then it looks like it would be sucking bubbles in through the top outlet tube.

Nah, the inlet on the MCP pumps are on the top, so it goes pump>gpu>rad>cpu>rad>res. It's a little strange, but it doesn't matter in the long run. The only bummer is having a 90 on the outlet of the pump, but it probably doesn't hinder it too much.

This will show you how tiny this board is compared to a regular mATX board. The motherboard tray is that it sits in is made to fix a regular mATX size board.



Specs as follows:

Intel G440 Sandy Bridge
Biostar H61MGC Motherboard
2x2GB 1333mhz Crucial sticks

Enjoy That keyboard Cad. I got mine back in '09 and I'm just now gettin board with it lol. I snapped off the c12 macro key and the film is gettin pretty worn on the media keys up top. I love that you can switch it so it turns off the window key. I do bump it every once in a while during my game sessions.
