I had a raptor and my spinpoint and my gosh it was toasty.

I had two spinpoints and a few random HDD's I accumulated and what about that doa 8800 eh

ownage · May 16, 2009

I have a Raptor 74gb, and a 200gb maxtor sitting in those bays. They get hot as hell, seriously, I cant touch those drives, not even 5 minutes after I turned my rig off.

Edit: LOL, so at least I'm not the only one with this problem haha.

Hey, that GT was working 100% two days before I shipped it to you, it was transit, you being a static destroyer or SABOTAGGGGEEEEEE!

I know I never blamed you

I reckon it was my own fault considering my own 8800GT died two days later :wtf:

Anyway its working now. I still feel bad my cosmos arrived damaged I was furious.

I keep my Velociraptor in the 5.25 bay just under the dvd drive and its @ 29c

Its my VGA and my NB that needs the extra cooling.

Ive NEVER had an MB that didnt need an 80MM fan pointed at the NB. Those things are always so poorly cooled (for southern florida overclockers).

JM i am impressed with your work dude. :rockout:

Whats the absolute cheapest set-up for a i7 -- X58, DDR3, and 920.

you can find i7's for about $230-240 the cheapest.

THere are a few boards for $200, and great overclockers. FIT is using an ECS board for under $200 bucks and its giving him the best performance and stability of any board hes used I think.

RAM you can get a 6GB kit for $85 on the egg, Crucial RAM with DJ9NL chips, I think I got the name right. FIT has shown he can run them at 2000 MHz with auto timings and about 1.8v great overclockers and you cant beat the price.

that totals about $525 for those three components.

The i7 and RAM are priced decently, but the mobos are a little pricey for my liking lol, though they are pretty nice like the cheapest one coming with 2 PCI-e x16 slots. Would like to see the prices drop a little

sneekypeet · May 16, 2009

You guys talk too much and dont show enough pics....j/k

Not really my PC, but they are in my PC ATM

Got em here for tonight I think.

yeah, it'll be nice if they had some boards in the $130-150 range, like AMD does and socket 775. My DFI 790GX board for my AMD rig was $150. Awesome motherboard, why spend more? But thats not what happens with X58

Very nice clocks on those G.Skills man! :toast:

1200Mhz FTW!! :rockout:

I cant get my Dominators to get past 1166mhz. I wanted to cry when I saw this! How long did it take you to get it to that speed? Or was it a lucky shot and went right to it an booted. Im asking because my old 4GB kit of Mushkins booted @ 1200mhz first try and ran like a charm. :rockout:

aCid888* · May 16, 2009

They run stock at 1200mhz, very nice for a 4GB kit.

My OCZ kit is stock @ 1150mhz and will do 1232mhz 5-5-5-15 but I dont see the point as I should really be running them at 1000 for a 1:1...but I'm too lazy to bother. :laugh:

Cold Storm · May 16, 2009

Sneeky, glad to see you got it bro! I'm glad that you got them! I almost hit the PM button myself for them! :roll:

Now, My PC is running... but the Box a little "bare" :laugh:

Got quite more stuff to buy now... lol.. But, at lease, I can now know what it looks like, and go from there! Woot, Woot!

JrRacinFan · May 16, 2009

Dayummm!!!! That's one sexy beast!!

Yukikaze · May 16, 2009

Here's my new (and old) toys:

Man, the tweaking this damned Core i7 needed to run 4Ghz on air without frying itself took was immense compared to my previous Q9650 overclock which consisted of: Set FSB to 445, set RAM to 1:1, set voltage to 1.3v, go !

The case is the Nzxt Tempest.

Its the NXZT Tempest case

Nice case!!!I suppose the airflow is great right???

It is, and I still had to Ghetto Mod an extra 92mm blowing through the I/O panel (Which I did not cover with the insert thingie) in order to not fry the VRMs when OCin' (They'd hit 90c when under load, insane !) since the Scythe Mugen 2 is huge and blocks most airflow below it.
