    Turning an old Dimension 5000 into a HTPC, what's the bottleneck?

    +1 to this. Certainly the CPU and not the GPU. :)

    The stamped grill at the top looks very much like a Toughpower. :confused:

    NZXT HAVIK Best Cooler???

    NZXT quote these fans as 90CFM each, who am I to argue with them? ;) Remember, pitch of the blades can make a whole world of difference to how it 'pushes' the air over the fins.

    NZXT HAVIK Best Cooler???

    This is true. However, the Archos has only one 140mm fan. Add to that, it moves less air (TT = 56CFM, NZXT = 90CFM each ) in a single fan configuration and you will see why it doesnt top any lists. :)

    NZXT HAVIK Best Cooler???

    140mm fans move a lot of air while maintaining very good dB levels. Besides; the actual tower its self looks pretty damn fine, too, with lots of heat pipes and spaced nicely. :) No surprise this is a beast.

    SLI GTX280s with a GTX285???

    Not exactly on topic... but.. At your clock speeds (CPU) you are wasting your time with SLI; never mind Tri-SLI that cant be done. OC your Q9450 and it will give you a very nice boost in FPS. :)

    Upgrading my PII 940 to 1090 or 1100 Thuban

    It will be a nice upgrade but to get the most out of the X6's you need some AM3 + DDR3 action. I'd say save up some more cash until you can do a full upgrade.

    OCZ to leave DRAM market.

    :rolleyes: One less company = less competition to keep the market fresh and prices low. If you didn't like OCZ, that's fine, but they did do some awesome products over the years and it'll almost be sad to see them exit the market. :)

    OCZ to leave DRAM market.

    Wasn't it 14% failure rate for their hardware?? I'm sure I saw it posted the other day in these forums.....some hardware survey or something. :confused:

    OCZ to leave DRAM market.

    Source. Lets hope RMA's aren't affected for a while.
