I like that CPU cooler a lot.... I dont know why. Might possibly pick one up for an upcoming AMD mini-build..

It works pretty well, dropped my temps down about 5*C under full load. I picked it up from another member on here for pretty much the price of shipping, and I'm rather happy with it.

@ radical Edward Don't get that PSU it has major stability issues on the 12v rail when under load quite large spikes and droops aswell as a lot of low frequency noise

What would you recommend then? I'm looking for something in the 650W area that has at least a 120mm fan and doesn't cost more than $90. (Modular would be a great plus!)

lol that's when management is important, but as i said the majority of people don't get it that bad. and all you need is basic management to stop that, you don't need to go all out with a dremel. just move the friggen wire a few inches and tuck it if necessary.

bet he liked the newfound quiet, huh?

LOL he was like WTF and called dell. long story short they were like "there hands are tied" since i opened the case. i told dad that i would make him right so i ordered him a new 500W psu and installed a green LED fan onto his heatsink (the blades on the other one was chewed as well). so now he like the green glow that comes out of the case.

@ Spud yeah i know took me aback a bit when i first read a review but it works 3x 180mm intake fan on the bottom blow up through the case and all the heat follows it's natural path which is up and out

@ Radical Edward any Enermax OCZ or CoolerMaster modular PSU would be better

if you can get anything by Pc Power & Cooling or corsair those would be best, idk what you have available..

yeah no way they'd touch it. you got it resolved easily enough though and now he's got the glow

very cool.

Radical_Edward · Mar 31, 2010

Well, I did some more searching around on the egg. Looks like I'm going with this PSU.

digibucc · Mar 31, 2010

i've never used OCZ but the only available PC P&C is recertified, and that looks like a decent unit, so i'd say that's good...

Athlonite · Mar 31, 2010

that is the exact model i was about to post Radical you read my mind

Athlonite · Mar 31, 2010

or this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...e=enermax_power_supply-_-17-194-021-_-Product

i know it's a little over your budget but it comes with an 60 buck rebate making it only 99.99

Not bad at all chicken! :rockout:

(I'm so glad it arrived... phew!)

With my i5 750 at 4.0 and a single 5850 at 1000MHz Core / 1200MHz Memory, here is what I was able to pull off in 3DMark06 and Vantage.

Bad Company 2 runs way better than it did with a single 5770, definitely a different world. Two 5770's should be comparable to a 5870 though, so I'm sure your games will scream chicken!

take the 600w instead, its the same psu, just a 700w sticker on the 700w
they have the same guts

Radical_Edward · Mar 31, 2010

Are you sure?

(FIH) The Don · Mar 31, 2010

afaik, it can take up to 700w load

Radical_Edward · Mar 31, 2010

Good to know, thanks for the info Don.

(FIH) The Don · Mar 31, 2010

np, but wait and see what others say

i didnt knew that... i have such a PSU, and on the carton are stated 504w 12v
and 150w 3.3v+5v.

combines to 654, ifm not wrong?

spud107 · Mar 31, 2010

@mmm995 awesome,wish i had a couple of those.
i only got up to 4 monitors, but i dont have the 7300gt in anymore.

Radical_Edward · Apr 1, 2010

Got bored today and put the Rexus NMB fan back in my case. Just some clever screw placement and removing two of the secondary faceplates.

Velvet Wafer · Apr 1, 2010

Cruncher Update! i got me a DangerDen TDX 7 CPU-Waterblock, used from Israar, its in brand new condition, was handled with care,and doesnt even had a scratch. it bettered the temps of the X2 3800+ by about 10c on all cores, and it even looks so much better! i am really impressed!

and i got me a little temp sensor from him, now i always know the temperature, even without having the proper sensors integrated :rockout:

makes a great match in my opinion!

johnnyfiive · Apr 1, 2010

Nice looking cruncher!
