I don't have a stock one :-(

Anyone got a stock LGA775 they fancy posting to me.

I have the stock cooler from my Q9650 and I also have an Artic cooling freezer pro 7. You can have either one for pretty much the cost of shipping. Where would you need it shipped to? My heatware is under BababooeyHTJ. They're sitting around collecting dust.

To do that case justice you have to leave it stock on the outside and black on the inside....it'll look dapper then. :)


But on a note of the case; why did you update it? And for that matter, why did you update the PSU too? (aside from the huge e-peen it gives you)

You old parts aren't as good, we all know this, but why spend more money (a lot of it at that) on new stuff when the old (5 weeks!?) parts did the job. :confused:

Well the PSU was a gift. And the case was bought so I can set up for watercooling loops. I needed a case that is bigger than my 900. There will be 2 rads installed in this case, 1 360mm rad on the top inside and a 240mm rad in te 5.25 bays. as well as a 400ml res and dual pumps. There is no way that could fit inside a 900. I'll be selling the other parts to a friend of mine when he buys his mobo cpu and ram'

Anyone know what voltage LEDs are on fans? I was hoping to use the seperate power switch for the leds on my sniper, but it doesnt seem to be enough to start the cathodes, I was hoping it was 12v but I now have a feeling it was 5v. Do the fans step the voltage down before powering the leds?

Building a temp computer at the moment. Basically the Folding on in my Sig. Only issues are, can't seem to get it to post. And on top of that, i have no CD/DVD drive at the moment and my Maximus Incident Corupted my OS... So i can't boot anyways. There was 80GB of games (Virgin will kill me if i download that again), 100GB of TV programs, 100GB of Films (HD) and over 20GB of Music. Along with my Documents and evidence of my NB being at 85c on boot...

Hopefully it'll of just corupted the systems files, so i'll be able to copy stuff using another computer.

Right, Next week :

4 x Xigmatek 120mm XLF-F1253 1500RPM - White LED
Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound
Samsung HD502HI 500GB Hard Drive SATAII - OEM Green Drive (Gah, Green...)
2 x Pioneer DVR-216DBK 20x DVD±RW

And possibly:

Sapphire HD4870 512MB

You should really backup your downloaded games. Every game I buy digitally I backup to dvds

I was about to buy a 500GB Hard drive for all my Media. Then this happened, like the most unlucky thing ever.

I normally would back things up. But i've formatted that much recently, and i don't have a CD/DVD drive at the moment.

If your going to get a 4870, get the 1GB model. 512MB on a card like that won't do it justice, its meant for super high res gaming.

I had a 512MB 4870 before and managed to play all my games (Source, UT3, Fallout3, Stalker) at 1920x1080 and near enough max.

I'm getting this card to hold me till ATi 5*** or GTX3**. Unless the 4890/GTX275/285 fall alot in price.

Those games don't have high res textures in that way though. Run Crysis/Warhead at max settings in DX10 and the difference is easily 7-10FPS between a 512MB and 1GB model.

Great, But i don't have either Crysis or GTAIV. So i guess that doesn't apply.

I also don't plan on buying them.

I've played Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) for the past 10 months on Ultra high textures (kicks the shit out of most cards) but the 4870 512mb flew through it.

Best value for money card I've owned, and I'm not just saying that 'cos I'm selling one, it really is an amazing card.

+1 on that. I loved mine.

Also, got an email from Asus. They say that because the pins are damaged, my warrenty is void. Email:

Dear Danny,

Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Service.
My name is Lyn and it's my pleasure to help you with your problem.

Sorry to hear that.
But the motherboard with damaged pins will lose warranty. We cannot help much more.
The thing(needed to do) is to check when/where the pins are damaged.

Welcome to refer Troubleshooting & FAQ for ASUS products in ASUS website:
http://support.asus.com/troubleshooting/troubleshooting.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
http://support.asus.com/faq/faq.aspx?SLanguage=en-us

If having any problems, please don't hesitate to let me know. Let's discuss this
issue together.
Thank you for using ASUS products and enjoying ASUS services!

Lyn

ASUS Customer Service Center (Shanghai, China)

And, more bad luck. WcUK have changed their policy on Free Delivery. I used to qualify as i had 30 posts on overclock.net. But now i need 100posts. So that £4 on delivery when i buy my fans... fs.
