Your PC ATM

theJesus · May 8, 2010

Looks like you should be fine 'til the new HS arrives

brandonwh64 · May 8, 2010

yea it should. i just bumped the CPU up to 3.2ghz @ 1.4v and im testing it out using intelburntest on max. right now im at 62 deg at full load.

theJesus · May 8, 2010

I've never ran intelburntest, but if you really want to see how hot your cpu can get, try small FFTs in prime95 or run OCCT's linpack test.

brandonwh64 · May 8, 2010

intelburntest is a linpack test like LinX. i ran Prime for about 15 minutes just now and got no errors.

The only bad thing about this case is that i had to take out the hotswap bay to install my harddrive due to having only 1 IDE slot on the board so ive gotta have the hardrive close to the DVD burner so i can hook them both up. I would like to find two small sata drives to replace this one. i have a friend that has two in a old PC i might hijack!

I was going to mention that actually :laugh:

Anyways, it looks great

brandonwh64 · May 8, 2010

well i took some more pics but i cannot get enough light here in my desk area so tomorrow i might take it outside and get some good pics. Now im installing the new 10.4 ATI drivers for the 4200HD IGP video that the motherboard has

Ok got my case in today! i just took it apart and cut out the piece i needed to get the HSF to fit. my only issue it it might hit the PSU but i cant see that til i get it together BUT FIRST! PAINT!!!!

After this i will touch it up and start assembly.

Ill keep you up dated

From the looks of the pics you have it looks like it would be doable to remove that card reader, the front panel jacks, and cut a hole there for better airflow for the 80mm fan. Was thinking about getting one of these to try doing a first-time mod on but got hung up on the airflow from the front. Hmmm......

BTW, nice job on the assembly so far!

WOW its been a while since i've seen one of those Intel fans... I think some heat spreaders on the ram would help a little... that fan on the ram is the same one i have on my mom's sempron 3000... keeps it at under 100F

doesn't look so good.I am still waiting to get my new PSU so till then i am running my old 700w one on it and the 8600GT. Will have the 8800GT and Seasonic PSU in it next week...(i hope)
I just redid the tube and cut out the top 140mm fan so i could get the rad to fit. this is my rig in its darkest moment

I'm surprised it hasn't tried to attack yet :eek:

to be true, the left Fan is from a socket A Athlon XP 2200+, and the right, big Fan is from an Intel LGA 775 cooler!

Ok after resetting the heatsink again, the temps kinda calmed down to a decent number til i get the heatsink from sniperbob.

Idle

http://img.techpowerup.org/100507/Idletemps.jpg

1 hour Full Load

http://img.techpowerup.org/100507/loadtemps.jpg

This is all on stock clocks and stock volts. when the heatsink with copper heatpipes gets here i will set the clock at 3.2ghz and leave it at that.

That's very acceptable in a mini case on a stock cooler.

But while Im waiting for the M2F to return Ill be using this baby.. so far it can do 515 on the bus .... and I had a hard time getting 500 on the M2F.. I really hope they fix my board....
Anyways.... all is well guys.. keep up the great work fellas! And yes... Im still planning on adding the WC Loop soon to this rig.. as soon as I get my board back from ASUS.. That way I can get what I can out of this rig untill I save up for the new rig... next year =]

Yeah, I need to clean mine out. My cat is shedding right now and my PC has been trying to suck it all up.

Oh, and I hate waiting for USPS to show up.. I want my 5770!
