The NZXT Case Clubhouse

Josh154 · Dec 12, 2010

Hey guy's well had some spare time tonight re route that last cable and here's some pics! Check out the ghetto modded sli bridge. Didn't like the green so sharpie came and fixed that! Zip tied my north bridge fan on, cut out the rear mesh and cut around the fan to fit side panel on. Loving my NZXT! I wish i had $45 right now so i could buy a m59 and get a $10 MIR off the egg! So $35 shipped and i could move the p4 system into that!

Overall case with cards in SLI

Ghetto modded NB fan

Lovely h50

Rear mesh cut out between fan and rad

Cut i had to make to fit around fan

Purtyyy lights

What do you all think of it? Feedback is greatly appreciated whether it's good or bad! I definitely wan't to change up the color combo i know that. Not digging the blue anymore and red is too over used. I really like the look of white cathadoes and led's to be honest but then i need some green r4's!

Looking good man.

Thanks man! I need to re-route that 8-pin under the mobo i hate looking at it wrap up through there. I also need to pick up another 8800gts or 8800gt and run SLI and have that as a phsyx card when gaming, and then have 18k worth of PPD in 3 cards that cost me about $150-160 :rockout:

Oh and how are my ghetto modded NB fan? It actually works really good!

you WILL need a bigger psu for 3x 8800s

750w good quality

Yeah i know that, im probably cutting it really close right now with my ocz 500w. Another 8800 wouldn't be a bad idea though would it? I don't need dx 11 and i don't care about power consumption

(FIH) The Don · Dec 12, 2010

not if you can get it dirt cheap

idk how much they produce each?

66W each

(FIH) The Don · Dec 12, 2010

meant PPD

but nvm

66w is VERY little, you sure thats right? thought it was around 100W

and then theres amp usage

Would you be interested in a 8800GT?

Josh154 · Dec 12, 2010

Hmm possibly. I'd most likely need a different PSU though. Would i be able to set up the 8800gts and have the gt as a phsyx card? I have the slot on my mobo. Also for a card to be a phsyx card do i need a bridge on all three cards? If so that won't work.

My gts's get about 6k PPD so a gt should get a decent amount of PPD

Damn your new cable management job looks so much better.

With the Lexa S you shouldn't have any problems routing that 8 pin behind the mobo tray either. White cathodes would look sick bro! Gotta show off your SLI fo sho. :rockout:

yes you can run that as a physx card by itself

no bridge needed

Yeah definitely! Now i just need to find some white cathodes and just run them with my inverter i already have now and run that 8-pin behind the mobo and it would be real nice

(FIH) The Don said:

Hmm that would actually work then! Id need to do something to exhaust all that hot air though!

I think i actually need to change up my h50 to a exhaust, when folding now on both gpu's and my cpu my core temp goes up like 12-15C and thats most likely cause the cards exhaust out the back and the h50 sucks in all hot air.

Im actually getting 18k PPD right now on the rig, im scoring 6.5k PPD on 353 point work units on each 8800gts

another 8800gt would be sick and having that as a phsyx card and two 8800gts's in sli would work great!

66w for green edition and 72W for the normal, i would love to provide a link but i cant remember the site it was from :ohwell:

(FIH) The Don · Dec 13, 2010

seems about right, 8800GT was 100w i think, the gts is newer version,

Josh154 · Dec 13, 2010

Hmm my gts's only pull in 72w each?!

exactly, 100W your thinking of is nvidias TDP ratings, mostly junk....

popswala · Dec 15, 2010

I finally got the replacement fan controller for my Phantom. Swapped it out and it works. Yeaaaa! It came with all the wires attached. Sweet. Now my case is back to normal. My builds put on hold for a bit tho. Things came up and all my funds are going else where at moment. Once things are back on track I'll finish the build. It sucks cause I was soo looking forward to seeing it complete and saying to myself "job well done" lol.

Josh154 · Dec 15, 2010

Sweet good to know you got a working one now! Yeah thats a bummer man

It always feel's really good to complete a build! I built my first rig at 15 and man did that feel good

PopcornMachine · Dec 17, 2010

Ok, a very hurried picture of my new HD 6950!!!!!!!!!!! :eek:

It runs very quiet and cool. Still testing, but had to put up a pic.

As you can see, it was too long for the top PCI-E slot due to the ECO hoses. So I've got it in the 2nd. No problem.

I'm very excited. Didn't know where to post, so I thought I'd put it here.

Chicken Patty · Dec 17, 2010

huge card is huge! :eek:

Very sweet looking rig though!

It's huge alright. I'm going to have to work on a new cpu cooling solution if I ever get a 2nd one.

Josh154 · Dec 17, 2010

Nice rig man! What case is that?

That's my Blue Vulcan!

You can see what it looked like before here: The NZXT Case Clubhouse - Page 15

Took out my 4830CFX for the 6950. Hopefully I'll have some better new pics soon.

Wish H70 had long hoses like that ECO. Can only fit a 460 on lowest slot on mine.

Q: Are you using the ECO in a pull or push configuration? I found I get really nice results pushing the air from side intake to the front of the case.
