Love the colour coordination going on. Not a fan of the psu cables though, prefer mine bunched super tight! blocks less air.

Replaced my Gigabyte X58 UD4P with the X 58 Extreme:
![]() ![]() ![]() The Fenrir does a pretty good job keeping the i7 cool: ![]() I am waiting for a new backplate for the Apogee GTZ. Then I will see about figuring out (never used splitters before) how to water cool the nb with the supplied 3/8" nozzles as I use 1/2". This board requires a higher VCore to run stable. My ASUS and EVGA boards run at 1.26 to 1.28. Last edited by HammerON; Mar 6, 2010 at 02:22 AM. |

![]() Gotta love the hot swap bay of the Obsidian 800d. Ready to go with no adapters, just 300MB/s read/writes ![]() Some fun numbers: ![]() Compared to two 320GB WD AAks in Raid0: ![]() And just for fun, one single Nova 128GB: ![]() Oh, may have an opportunity to test these on a Sata 3 board in the up coming weeks. Anyone with ideas on how to show the benifits of Sata 3 over Sata 2(aside from mech vs ssd) please let me know.

Anyone else seen this? This is the one I have been waiting for... http://tv.hexus.net/show/2010/03/CeB...lverstone_SG07
Plans are to use a i5 670 @ 4.8GHz and a 5870 for a 24/7/gaming rig. Here it is after a short game session of FEAR. (Using a Boreas atm for cooling)

@erocker
That case looks oddly familiar. It's a pretty good little case isn't it? |
