Sorry to hear that Thrackan, at least it sounds like some things are salvageable.

Yeah, I slapped on another cooler and the stuff runs. Gonna get her another case shortly. Somehow it was kinda funny to see a PC dropping out from the bottom of a box

There I was, holding the handle of an empty box...

Thinking of getting her an Element S since she likes a clean front. Gotta doublecheck if it fits a 9800GTX Black Edition card though.

Update : the 5770 is dead for sure, managed to borrow a 8500gt from work to test my rig with, and it booted to windows.

So! At-least it's one of the better outcomes of a broken rig, just a new card : ]

6870 here I come

Well, if you want help looking at a Cooler Master case instead, you could pop over to the Cooler Master Case Clubhouse.

I used to own a CM case:

Was one of the best bang for buck cases back then. I even had liquid cooling built in for my motherboard and CPU, with a 240 rad

Sounds like you should check out some of Cooler Master's newer stuff.

Heck, I got a refurb case from their webstore recently and it was like new. I'm rather sure they repainted it, tossed in some extra stuff, and re-wrapped it. I've had great luck with my refurb purchases from them. As well as new stuff. :rockout:

Pfffftttt, everyone knows you buy at least couple drinks for them before you ask these kinds of questions. . . .. oh wait were talking about computers um never mind. :confused:

Phaewryn · Oct 5, 2010

me, atm

here's me. my lights are all installed now. XD

DannibusX · Oct 5, 2010

That looks really good. Never seen a light ball used on a computer before.

yami2ki · Oct 5, 2010

Lol so you really did put a disco ball on the case.. XD

THIS IS WHAT I'M PUTTING IN THE CASE:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...145539&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_777wt_1139
(mind you, I have to take it apart and break the housing down, convert it to PSU powered, etc)

just wait til I manage the two bay drink cooler/warmer and mini poptart oven. XD

Truly original. Must see this :respect:

yeah. I gonna rip out the tray mech off old cd drive, make the cooler/warmer part slide out to hold drink, switch to switch from hot to cold. cold will be via TEC plate, hot side down, exposed to open bay below, low profile heatsink on that so it don't meltdown, which radiates heat into open bay slot lined with heatshield, with reflective bottom (if it'd toast the bottom it'd rule, but I dunno if it'll be that hot), three side-by-side vertical mounted 40 mm fans in back of bay slot, blowing air out front (pulls from inside case), over poptart/bagel oven slot. uv led 40mm fans, so the poptart bay will glow out from of case. XD
only problem is... finding a heat element low profile enough to sandwich over TEC for hot option, AND, you can't run the oven (TEC) same time as warmer element, cause the cold side of the TEC is gonna negate the element (I mean, you COULD, but it'd be pointless), since I have to sandwich them in the tray, and you have to have the tray IN to run the oven (so you'd have to take your hot drink off the cupholder and have it closed to heat the poptart, then eject, flip toggle, to rewarm the plate and turn off the TEC.
oh well, it'll still be epic, if I pull it off.

'cuse me if I ramble and that is all one sentence... no food, just caffeine and alcohol all day so far. *shakes* XD

Looks great, I would never use it because it would drive me nuts, and I would likely heave the whole thing out the window about the 3rd time a strobe hit me in the eye, but it looks good! :toast:

But -1 for the smirnof wine cooler <_<"

You really don't notice the lights after a while. Really, you seriously get used to it, it's all background noise. If you wanna see it in action, click my sig link. There's actually 3 lights in the room, the one you see is just one.
