Lookin great Dave :cool: maybe throw a couple a fans on that 6800?

i must be doing something right if you think it is a 6800. its a 6200 atm, soon to be a 6600gt. imo it doesnt deserve a fan.

i like the amd stock ;)

I don't but i cant complain as it does it job ratehr well.
 
temps hover at about 40 idle but that is because i dont have my cpu fan on.

dunno about the new cooler becuase im not sure i can even overclock at the moment. i tried yesterday and couldnt get anywhere with my shoddy ram. even running the ram at 200 fixed wouldnt do anything. i have flashed BIOS and might give it another go today, but me thinks i need new ram. saving up for frags.

Shit I thought it said 6800 :o When are you getting the 6600gt?

when i can get the money really. maybe before holiday...maybe after. hopefully within the next month but im not sure.
 
ok i have jusrt done some more cable tidying because i was anything but happy with my previous effort.

i moved botyh my cathodes onto the window and put the inverter on there aswell.

moved the HDD up one bay so it could use the existing molex rom the cd-roms.

tied back the extra nf4 power conectors behind the drive bays.

moved my rear 120mm fan cable to above the cpu instead opf under the gfx card. this makes things a lot neater.

put my cathodes, side fan and case lightson a seperate power lead which makes it neater. i was previously unable to use my case lights and side fan unless i used a compeltely seperate power cable whihc wasnt going to happen for 4 leds and an 80mm fan.

overall i am rpetty pelqsed with the new layout and i hope you like it aswell. i left a before pic in the first post so you can see the difference.
 
funny how ppl diss on enermax or ocz for being expensive , last time i checked enermax was actually CHEAPER than that piece of shit Antec , and OCZ is about 10 to 15 dollars more.

Nicks , ur still a youngin , thus i wont bitch at you . We have had arguments in the past and will have more in the future. The reason is becoz my friend you are biased. To everything that you own or have owned in the past.

Learn to look outside the box . Antec has been proven to blow and not be able to provide the solid rails that the newer systems need.

OCZ on the other hand gives you everything from user moddable rails to excellent customer support.

Enermax does not give you moddable rails but i would stake my entire reputation on this forum that enermax can hold rails much better than the Antec can.

Before yacking off about prices and what not , please do go on Newegg or ZZF and fucking check the prices.

Antec gives you prolly the worst performance to price ratio.

People droll over PC&P , well OCZ is your PC&P PSU for the general public. Instead of dissing on it , you should be praising OCZ for making such a damn good product.

So many times ppl have contacted me about their pcs not overclocking and what could be wrong as they bought all the good parts. The first question I ask " What is your psu ? "

More than half of the time its a bloody antec.

Antec was good till ppl ran socket 478 and 462 pcs. Not now , not till they learn to come out of their old bloody technology and meet OCZ head on .
 
Rele? Ohh. I've just never heard of a Antec failing. Only time will tell with Dave's system, but I see your point now.

My antec is running perfectly but i am not even starting conversation with "Flamers".

if you know my post history on the forums , you would be hard pressed upon agreeing to call me a flamer. But when the misinformation gets too much and everyone follows the public opinion , however wrong it might be , then I cant just sit and laugh . I have to correct whatever wrong has been stated.

I trust |3ourne not to flame anyone. I also trust his judgement. Antec are OK. They do and can make some decent PSU's (certainly not junk). But maybe not as good as OCZ, PCP&C or enermax ;)
