Wasn't happy with the stock mounting of the H80i it felt way too loose when fully tightened. so i decided to go towards a little more drastic and conventional mounting system. enjoy the pics

And yes it did lower the temps by roughly 3 degrees not bad for $10 worth of hardware

I got my Asus ROG Swift on Tuesday, but had not had the chance to play with it until today:

G-Sync has to be experienced in person to really understand how much of a game changer this technology is, I am a believer now, and this monitor truly deserves all the praise it gets from all review sites, I hope you guys like the pics

Hmm well it has been a while since I have posted my pc(s) in this thread. So I have sold off my old Asus G53 and my LanBox (the orange box) and bought a Gigabyte P34G V2 gaming laptop with the money I received from the G53 and lanbox (<- I'll be making a video review of this in about a month's time). I bought the 256GB SSD and 8GB RAM version. I installed my 1TB SSHD drive I had taken out of my old G53 and also bought and extra 8GB RAM while I was at the shop (I know 16GB is overkill but hey they let me have it for half price because of buying the laptop).

Comparison of the thinness with my TAICHI31 I use for uni;

I received a store credit for a broken Asus R9 280X graphics which I then used to buy my new screen, BenQ GW2765HT. I only had to be $80 out of pocket for the screen (wicked special intro price of $489AUD here)!

I also wall mounted ye olde FP241W (tis still an amazing monitor though, 500cd/m^2 :O )

Also I moved the 128GB Agility 4 SSD into my main desktop for installing more games that I would like to have quick loading times. I also taped up the holes underneath the 2 3.5" drives to try to limit the noise that came out of it, which has worked to some success but you can still hear the drives sometimes. I also have the front ceiling fan as an intake now as an experiment for temps.

The Agility 4 is in that cage you can half see behind the rats nest of cables

i see why you say the 540 is good at hiding cable mess xD

and the space available in the 540 may tempt me to do a custom loop later ... but inbetween the 1st option that will be added will be a full modular psu (like a BeQuiet Powerzone 850) and maybe a 2nd 290

also some extra pieces ordered (AF120 led and Gelide GC Extreme+ a 6pin BF red extension)
i will switch from a single 8gb 1600 to a kit of 2x4 Corsair Vengeance Pro 2133 CL9 (got a good price on it, and drat again ... i will have to redo my sig ... again :roll:

) since AM1 setup are single chan i will use the 8gb in my mom's build (overkill for a web/multimedia setup ... but the more the merrier eh? )

what going on in the regular case mod gallery and how do you report such things to the mods?

Jetster · Sep 9, 2014

There is contact e mails at the top of the page. Under contact us

I don't think there is anything wrong other than some malicious post that need to be deleted

Best way is to use the "Report" button. Or just shoot any of the mods a PM, it will get around

On the thread topic...

Jetster · Sep 9, 2014

What case?

sneekypeet · Sep 9, 2014

If that is to me, that is the Corsair Air 240 in white.

ensabrenoir · Sep 9, 2014

Look what good timing and $35 can get you from Craig's list

sneekypeet · Sep 9, 2014

That is the big brother 540, and at $35 that is a damn good deal!

Guy had it posted for weeks without a picture which usually means ruff shape. Out of boredom I asked him to shoot me a few pics... (car wheels squealing) only thing wrong is no fans....which I would've changed anyway

well i confirm... CUUUUTTTEEE!!!

i added my Soundblaster Audigy FX (i can't stand a ALC662) if my mom doesn't use the HDMI, so she pay for the case/cpu/mb/hdd/license(not full retail price 33chf instead of 109chf) and i add as a gift: audio/wireless (solar powered)keyboard/RAM
using it atm to write that post, well for internet DVD/BD/Multimedia it will be golden and not noisy at all (albeit a bit hot but hey ... only 1 80mm and the BDrive is just above the CPU HS )

Ghost I know you couldn't wait lol you've got your work cut out for you on the cable management side, but I am glad you are up and running, you helped me a lot with my build and newegg screwed you over on yours lol. If you thought your cable mgt. was bad, you should see the backside of my mobo, I don't know where to put that fan controller than comes with the mobo.
Maybe @cadaveca could give me some insight if he used it.

My biggest problem really is all the fan wires and keeping them out of site. This is what happens when you run push pull on everything LOL (Oh and my dark light controller).

Thanks, I have been drooling over it as well. I plan on keeping this motherboard, ram, and CPU for a very long time (3+ years minimum), hence I was willing to go heavy with it this round and splurge on the parts.

That machine still gets me every time with how sexy it looks with that size and transparency for the components. The Red on the ram really adds some pizzaz to the machine!

Yea most definitely, if I had put this setup in my 900D then I could push/pull almost everything. I cant find a spot to put my fan controller as I'm so not trying to get a short.

I have that ram but too damn expensive man...their unopened so they are definitely going back.

Well we tested everything and did everything ASUS asked of us. (The bear and I. His name is Rainbow) AND MY RMA IS APPROVED. So once I'm able to send it out and get it back, we'll give it a test run and see how it goes.

Also I know the GPU isn't plugged in.
