Haha yeah I want to know, did not notice at first lol. What gpu and heatsink on there? Would love to know those temps:D
 
=) Temps

It is a 7970 @ 1050/1400MHz HIS IceQ X2 Turbo :) Klick this thread:

So, the GPU stays under 64°C @ gaming, but I configured the fanspeed with MSI Afterburner so it is still silent (700-800RPM) @ that Temp :)

All the Noctua NF-F12-PWM got 1500RPM max :)
I bought them because of the high static pressure (dustfilters, mesh, cpu heatsink, gpu heatsink)

The CPU got max 64°C (@prime) but is also below 66% of its full Fanspeed. :)

I soldered an adapter which forwards the PWM signal from the cpufansocket to the CPU AND Casefans. The RPM signal comes from the CPUcoolerintakeFan. The 12V and Ground come directly from the PSU :)

So it works awesome :) more load -> more caseventilation. In idlemode alle fans run @ 400-500RPM and you can only hear the hdd slightly :) (but its gonna be replaced with an WD Eco Green)

My goal was to make it silent @ idle around 40°C (CPU and GPU) and under 70°C @load =) Works fine and it is not even loud @ fullload (gpu&cpu 100%) :)

somebody made a comic because of my other thread :D

Noctuas.
Noctuas everywhere.

You know what i mean :D

:D

Also swapped the Bluraydrive into an extern case :) I need it twice a month, sometimes less :D So i prefered to use the hdd silencer in the 5,25" bay and throw out the optical drive :)

Would you like some PC with them Noctuas? Hah! ^_^
But really, it looks really nice, I like :D

Nice setup also! :p
 
Loving the Noctuas :)

The cable management could be better, though, and it looks like you have negative air pressure when you close the case (easy to fix adding a third intake fan at the bottom).

Anyway, congrats for the build, I really like it, and I share with you the focus on silence without affecting performance :)
 
Hey :) I sealed the bottom with bitumen :) yea, the negative airpressure might cause more dust in the case, i know, but i watch how it works out :)

i used some extensions for the psu cables, so it is a lot of cables :-/ i guess the only thing that i could improfe would be the sata cables :(

besides that, i dont have a windowed sidepanel :) the case stands next to the wall :) so it is just a question of airflow, not 100% optical :)
