New Rig

It's all a scam - leave stuff on the carpet and it'll be fine.

Bloddy liars whoever told me

Lol in that case good! Any pics of the inside?

Oh and is that a custom desk?

I think heatpipes can still work upside down if they have a wick in them.

Anti static bags are meant to work by being conductive on the outside or in layers of metal etc, so discharging instantly any static that builds up. That is why many people say not to put computer stuff on top of them, but ive never had a problem myself, and i see it as being better than the carpet.

Nice setup Nick

Gangster, The insides are the same as the v1000+. Only difference is tht this one is made to be more quieter and it has a door.

I know that, just ive been told the heatpipes dont work upside down. (temp wise) but ovbiosuly that was rubbish

Language please. I think Phil would probably ask you to edit that.

 

[Gangster]

Sure is

Ganster - I was told they don't work well upside down, which figures I guess. I wouldn't have bought the mobo if I had thought of this before (depsite me being it because of the heatpipe). Others have reported high chipset temps (like 60C, someones was apparently glowing red under load but mine seems fine. *touch wood*)

 

[OV3RCLOCK3R]

Guess you got lucky huh?

 

[SAS91]

damn man, i want one that glows red !!

 

[Master_G]

I bet that glowing red is BS, the chipset would toast and go up in smoke way before that happened.

Yeah, the thin tracks within or on the PCB would burn out under less temperature. They do glow as they burn out though!

cool
