cable sleeving is done today. sorry I can't seem to do anything about that gpu lean. it is three fan, three slot and heavy as anything. I could support it, but it runs well as it is. I don't think it is any more that simply cosmetic, is that the right word??

i was looking at the photo and noticed maybe I could pull back the 8 pin on the gpu connector and see if it holds it up a bit more.

I folded a piece of cardboard I colored black and placed it under the end of the cooler near the MB.

My PC currently looks like an empty case. Had to RMA my FX 8350 and my Asus Crosshair V Forumula after the CPU died and the board started sizzling my GPU's. Such fun. Ordered the MSI Z77 GD65 and an i5 3570k to replace it while I'm waiting. I'll post pics when i finish building it tomorrow night. Then when the RMA nightmare is done, I'll probably build a Media server for my parents to watch films from. Epic use of hardware right?

Just finished re routing my new NZXT sleeved led kit - i've set the led intensity to the lowest possible so i'll take some pics tonight to do it justice. Other small changes I've made is I now have the 24pin ATX sleeved cable and a couple of SP120 Quiets on the H100 (where I miraculously discovered that I can indeed run push/pull) - allbeit with only a mm or two of clearance over my ram lol.

cant understand you guys all those fans.
The more you put fans on your case the more you collect dust and general noise... |

The more fans you have the better the airflow thus lower temps for gpu, mobo and cpu. Yes it does create more noise but this is why i have only added quiet fans. None of my fans spin faster than 1500rpm now, so its still as quiet as it was at stock. The gpus are now the loudest fans in the case.

I broke two pins in my CPU socket today! Computer seems to run fine at stock... just debating paying Asus to fix it or to get a new mobo..

I hear its a pretty common issue with Z77 boards. I'm dreading ever upgrading from i5 to i7 for that very reason. How happy are you with your board? i guess is the question you need to ask yourself now. Hope it gets sorted soon man. |

Just bought a new one. It's going to cost me $120 bucks to get this one fixed.I wish. VCCSA pin gone and a VSS pin is gone. VCCSA pin missing is what is probably not allowing me to get high OC anymore. There are 100's of VSS pins, missing one isn't going to hurt. Pretty easy to see which two are bent.
