I've had a bit of a look around but I can't seem to find a place where I can buy a window for my c70, does anyone know of a place where I could get one? Making my own would be very inconvenient since I'd need to buy and learn to dremel, not to mention the fact that I'm a student in a tiny dorm...

When I got my SSD I sorted out obvious stuff like System Protection, page file size and disabling Hibernation. No hiberfil.sys in my C:\ directory. However, I noticed my space was filling up so I decided to use WinDirStat to check it out and it turns out that despite having Hibernation disabled...

I'd built for my friends before, but never had the chance to do one myself. Here is what I did (back in February): Specs: Corsair Vengeance C70 Arctic White i5 3570k @4Ghz 1.1v (in the process of working that up) Gigabyte GA-Z77x-UD3H 16GB of Corsair Cerulean Blue RAM Corsair H100i XFX Radeon...

i5 3570k running on a Gigabyte GA-Z77x-UD3H with a H100i with SP120s in push at 1600RPM. It's running at 40 multiplier at 1.1V in the BIOS with LLC on extreme. I haven't overclocked before so I watched TTLs 1155 guide. I managed to get stock clocks stable at 1.05V (stock volts are 1.12) and...

My Gigabyte GA Z77X UD3H has BIOS profiles and a small red LED indicating which profile I'm on as well as a two digit red LED readout in the bottom corner. Is there any way to turn these off? They really spoil my blue theme :(

I'm using a 3570k on a Gigabyte GAZ77x UD3H with a h100i in push only. I haven't overclocked anything before but I bought the above with the intention of learning how and getting into it. I know some of the basics like increasing voltage increases temperatures, but I've not really got a firm...

I have a h100i and I'm going to be buying a few more fans soon for airflow inside my case so it's the perfect opportunity to swap out the stock h100i fans that came with it. Question is, is it worth it though? Running a 3570k in a Vengeance C70 so push pull isn't an option and I don't currently...

Pretty much finalised the part list below, but if there are any changes I should make do tell :) Note that I'm keeping the two HDDs I already have and the wireless card. I don't see the need for an optical bay, I have my windows 7 install disc but I could burn the .iso to a pen drive if needed...

Hi, I'm probably going to be buying a Vengeance C70 in February but I have a few questions first. 1. Can the perspex window be unscrewed and mounted with the grill towards the front end of the case so that the clear part of the window is facing the motherboard? I wont' be using the fan slots...
