Will the NH-D14 fit in the Silverstone RV02? I'm needing to build a new computer for my new job and need to know if the beast will fit in this case.

Hey guys need a bit of advice from ya. I'm building a rig for a friend and want some feedback. His budget is $1400 at the high end but would like to save him some money if possible. Right now with a full build we are at $1359.91. Please take a look at my list and let me know if there are...

I'm going on a fast. My life is so outta wack right now. I'll see you guys in a month! Have a good one!

Just wanted to point out a bit of news for everyone. Some of the most recent (not sure if I have the absolute most recent) NVIDIA drivers have seemed to get better. I personally have an SLi set-up and before the 400 series came out my system would constantly crash. Lately though I've noticed no...

Hey just wanted to apologize for not being around as much as I used to recently. I got shifted around at work and now can't even access the forums. I'm currently remotely accessed into my home pc (thank God I'm an "IT" guy). I'm going to make a conscious effort to get on after work every day to...

Not much of a SNL fan but this video is hilarious. http://www.hulu.com/watch/149646/saturday-night-live-digital-short-great-day#s-p1-sr-i3

I've put in on my PC at home, now I'm itching to put it on my Mac at work. CS5 is fantastic so far on my PC. Seems to run faster but I'm not entirely sure. I'm going to have to pull an all nighter very soon (maybe Sat night cause I don't actually have to work the next morning) and let everyone...

Just read a review of this cooler on a site I've never heard of. Don't know the trust level of the site but this cooler beat out the Noctua NH-D14 by 1-2c... I didn't think it was possible! :P Anyone else got any news of this cooler?

Quick question for you guys (yes I did my homework first) Does anyone know how much amperage a Q6700 uses from the PSU? And while we are on the subject, if one 260 Core 216 uses at least 36amp how much more does two use? Also when you OC a CPU or GPU how much more amp do you use? I'm on the...

Does anyone here have experience with dual PSU set-ups? I'm wondering if I can just connect a PSU to my GPUs and the other to everything else. Do PSUs require to be plugged into the mobo also? Or will the PSU basically "shut-off" when the motherboard isn't using the GPUs? I've seen stuff on...

Hey I just got in some new hardware but am having doubts about SLi now. :( I now have 2x eVGA 260 Core 216 Superclocked Edition GPUs. I tried in SLi but everything ran the same if not slightly worse... I have a Corsair 750w PSU and the ASUS P5N-D 750i SLi mobo. I did a driver sweep for a clean...

So I've shown my rig (at least the inside) now it's time for my work/play area. :) Wide shot Closer Unfortunately I can't hide the speaker wires well because I'm not in a house. :/ Hope you like it.

So I've been here for over a month now. Figured I'd let everyone see my rig now. About 2-4 weeks ago I rewired everything to be much cleaner. See what you think! :) PS: Going to be putting in a D-14 early next week hopefully. :) I'll post new pics once my new hardware is in.

Hey as of right now I have a Q6700 which runs stock at 2.66ghz. I have OC'ed it to 3.33ghz so far but am wondering if I can push it further on Air cooling. Right now here are my settings: Asus P5N-D 750i Sli RAM - Mushkin Blackline DDR2 800 5-5-5-12 Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 VID - 1.25...

Hey I'm new to this place. I've recently took in OC'ing as a new hobby and am always looking for a new resource. Hope I fit in! :P Anyway my system is: Asus P5N-D nForce 750i Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 2.66ghz Oc'ed @3.33ghz (VID 1.25) Thermaltake Spin-Q Cooler (Hope to replace with Tuniq...
