[Case Gallery] XBLADE

[2003CRF450GUY]

To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
AMD athlon 3700 oc to 2.7 Ghz, mother board-MSI K8 NEO 4, Memory-OCZ pc 3200 platinum edition 2 gb, VGA-ATI X1900XT 512 mb 722 core 792 mem, PSU-Ultra x connect 500w, HDR-160 gb western digital 7200 rpm. DVD-NEC Dual Layer DVD±R/RW Drive. 19 inch Samsung SyncMaster 955df

Mods:
Cut fan grills out for improved air flow, other then that it’s a stock case. 80mm blowing into the x1900 for extra cooling.

This is what I would call a budget gaming pc, its no Intel qx6700 with sli 8800gtx’s, but it still plays all the games out today with maxed graphical settings. I will stick with windows xp pro for probably another year before I go VISTA. When I do go with vista I might get a new direct X 10 card, probably a ATI\AMD r600 card, maybe a 8800 gts if the price is rite, and a new dual core cpu and new memory.

Its a xblade, they are quite common on ebay and dont look like a bad case at all! Nice looking led's and lighting, my akuma case is very similar, but has a wire meshing on the side for extra ventilation and I can see my black lighting a treat through it!

Nice attempt, I will give you a 6

I have 3d mark 06 professional, my vga score is 2480 that’s VGA ALONE, altogether I get a bench mark of 5400 The VGA score is just done with return to the proxy gone and fire fly forest. The CPU alone is about 1100, so again all together a final score of 5400.
And yes I love that Zelman cooler

How is that Zalman working out for you? What kind of temps are you getting? I'm wondering if my 2.6ghz overclock barrier is due to heat or just a product of SOI... thanks!

At full load my CPU temps are about 56c-58c, I have never seen it go past 58c. At idle its stays at about 45c, the cooler is really quite to I love it, even with the fan at 100% it is still not bad. Now the x1900xt at 100% fan speed is another story, its loud but it doesn't bother me I think it sounds cool, you cant hear it when you have head phones on in a game.
