    Long time no see, AT :) Still kickin' and still putzin' around with the PC, albeit a lil less often these days. Christmas break meant time to tinker :) Still need to soften the white LED in the rear a bit... and hit that window with some Windex, lol. Pretty happy though, really love...

    How to watercool this rig?

    OP if you're throwing that much money at this rig, and a little more wouldn't bother you... I would highly recommend a nice WC friendlier case like Caselabs or Lil Devil's. Another +1 for pump redundancy. Think of it as an insurance policy. I ran 2 DDC's in mine. Also, to keep routine...

    New Cooler Master Fan controller survey - help us out!

    Kind of a strange request, but I would kill for a decent looking controller with an easy access front face hookup for fans. Would be awesome to not have to open my case and free up wires just to test fans. Sounds stupid, but I find myself testing fans quite often lol.

    The Xigmatek fans really turned me on to it. Those fans are just gorgeous. I really wanted to get the Biostar Z77 board that was orange to go with everything, but they were OOS everywhere for a good 2-3 weeks when I was ready to buy, so I went with the mostly neutral Asrock Extreme6. Yes I'm...

    Slowly switching to orange. Still a bit of red stragglers left. SATA cables are proving to be a challenge. Thinking I'm going to paint some black ones and see how it goes.

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    Been awhile, but I finally got the time to dig into this a bit. I definitely had some counter-productive airflow going on. Playing with a probe, there was a heat cloud (for lack of better description) hovering right under the GPU. Swapped some fan directions and got it remedied. The TF3...

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    While I only had mine up to 1100/1575 or Afterburner max, it gamed just fine in FarCry 3 and BF3 for hours at a time. Honestly I didn't leave it at those settings because the fan noise was intolerable to my ears. I really don't know what to make of my card, lol. It can undervolt heavily and...

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    Kind of an update for mine... I'm blind first off... it's 1.018 not 1.18v stock. I don't know how I convinced myself that was true, especially after reading it in 3 different monitoring programs. Anyways, played with undervolting a little.. didn't seem to help much. Temps maybe dropped 1*C at...

    Orange SATA cables? Place to buy?

    Thanks for the suggestions guys. I actually have a bunch of the ones you've pictured/linked/suggested. I'm really looking for dark orange ones, to be extremely picky I would call them "Xigmatek Orange" or close to the orange blade and white LED fans they sell. I used to have some, but I gave...

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    Yeah that was my first thought when I saw the stock voltage. Def looks high for stock but that's what Afterburner, CCC and GPU-Z all report so I assume it's accurate. My next step is going to be to try to lower voltages for stock clocks (925/1250) as I'm on a 1680x1050 res. Card is more than...

    Radeon HD 7950 Owner's Thread

    Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the info and recommendations in the thread. I settled on the MSI TF3 OC and I love it. It does get noisy past 50% fan (subjective, I know), but other than that it's a beast overclocker and as almost everyone else, I did get the 7970 PCB with 8+6 pin...

    Orange SATA cables? Place to buy?

    I switched my color theme in my rig over to orange (from red) awhile back. I can't seem to find orange SATA cables anywhere. Anybody know of somewhere that sells them? Need 18" or longer, 180-90 connectors. All else fails I can paint them I guess.

    Recommend me a USB 3.0 SATA & IDE dock?

    I meant PATA not IDE. Bad wording on my part. It will mostly be used to recover data from PATA drives on people's computers that aren't fixable or there's no other option but to hook up the drive to another computer for backup/data pulls. All my personal drives are SATA, but I always get...

    Recommend me a USB 3.0 SATA & IDE dock?

    Been looking for one of these as I'm about to get rid of my only PC with IDE capability. I do a lot of fix jobs for coworkers/friends/etc and I really need to have capability to work with IDE drives. Even using the old PC is less than optimal for this, so I'm just using a rigged up cable pair...

    Anyone used their mouse pads? I'm in need of one and was about to splurge on a Razer or something similar that was large. These look to be about the same size as the larger commonly known surfaces and much cheaper.

    Reputable laptop battery replacement?

    AS-SSD score look right?

    Here's Crystal & AS-SSD Again. Looks to be about the same. Any idea why the reads might be low? It's def on a native Intel SATA3 port. Other than that have no idea why it would be half of yours.

    AS-SSD score look right?

    Intel 520 128GB Just trying to make sure I have everything set up correctly. First time ssd user :D Had to run one test a second time, ninja Windows update in the background borked the score. Scores on the net are all over the freaking place and not a lot of 520 results I could find.

    Which folders to move off of SSD?

    Thanks for the different point of view. Guess I thought about this all backwards, lol. I had always assumed I would want temp folders and folders that constantly changed to be off of the SSD to prevent excessive rewriting, but now that I think about it...

    Which folders to move off of SSD?

    Grabbed my first SSD today, Intel 520 120gb. Just wondering once I fresh install Win7.. Which folders should I move off to mechanical storage? I will probably be using Firefox mainly for browsing, but I have a couple sites that "require" IE (I know, trust me I know). Other than that...

    Nice black case with blue lights and side window.

    Not sure if it always fits the budget, but the Lancool K62 is one of my favorites. It comes in a variety of flavors though, some with window, some without etc..

    How does the Venomous-X stack up these days?

    Got one sitting here I could use for my Ivy build, but not sure how well these sinks measure up against the newest available. Seems the VX gets left out of a lot of new graphs, partly due to its age and availability I'm sure. Just curious. Not looking to get an insane OC on my 3570k, but...

    WTK: One Rad good enough or two

    FWIW, I use a 3x120 on my i7 920 and it's more than enough. I would imagine even a budget 240 rad like the Swiftech MCR would be plenty for what you're trying to do. At 4ghz on the 920 with an MCR320, I keep my Gentle Typhoons at around 1k rpm or lower depending on ambient temp. With ambient...

    Top tier 7850 availability at Newegg?

    Top tier 7850 availability at Newegg?

    I'm not whining because I'm broke. Getting a little irritated with the "buy elsewhere" comments though. I have giftcards and MUST use them to buy the card because I don't have the cash to buy the card elsewhere. Thank you for actually reading the thread, lol. Thanks for the info. I've been...

    Top tier 7850 availability at Newegg?

    Sure, I imagine Amazon or elsewhere has no problem accepting over $300 in Newegg gift cards. Not all of us have loads of cash to dispense at our every whim. I'm actually a college student with about $1.23 to my name right now. Oh, and $300 worth of Newegg cash I didn't realize I could...

    Top tier 7850 availability at Newegg?

    That's definitely the one I would snag if I didn't wait for the DCII or other. I just really wanted a DCII for the flexibility options with OC'ing. If I get too impatient and pull the trigger on it, I'll try to give an unbiased, whine-free review :)

    Z77 Asus Sabertooth vs AsRock Z77 Professional

    Don't know if you saw it, but there's a Professional review done here now. It's the first one under the Motherboards category. Pretty thorough and answered my questions about the board. FWIW, after reading that review I decided to go Extreme4 or Extreme6. In your pairing, I would def go with...

    Top tier 7850 availability at Newegg?

    What's up with the availability on the 7850's at Newegg? Is there some kind of pcb change going on or something? Been trying to get my hands on a DCII or the Sapphire/MSI premium cards for awhile. Should I keep waiting or just snag a cheaper card and throw an aftermarket cooler on it?

    Few ?'s about the Asrock Z77 boards

    Appreciate the input :) I do use a fan controller as well, so the fan control wouldn't bother me either. I just run a rotation lock signal wire back to the board header in case the CPU fan ever chokes up. I would have just bought a 16GB kit, but these 2 kits were meant to go in builds for...

    Few ?'s about the Asrock Z77 boards

    Thanks for sharing your experience moriz. Any gripes on the board at all other than the USB 3.0 up front? It won't bother me much, I'll just be using it for an external backup that will stay plugged in with its power switch off when not in use. This would be my first Asrock board. Really sad...

    Few ?'s about the Asrock Z77 boards

    Yeah, probably a poor choice of wording there. I have water as an option if I need it to get there, but would prefer to go back to air if possible. Current loop is dual MCP350's with EK top and a Koolance CPU-370 and two Swiftech MCR320 rads, so I'm good for cooling. I'm at least hoping it can...

    Few ?'s about the Asrock Z77 boards

    Trying to figure out which of the Asrock boards I want. Current setup is red themed, so Asrock is looking like the only neutral or red option here (yeah I know, but I love my red). I'm really open to either the Extreme 6, Extreme 4, or Fatality Professional. Looking for input on a few key...

    Newegg: CM 690 II Adv. for $55 AR AP

    FWIW, and I don't know if this could be considered a real apples-to-apples comparison, I have a Lian Li case that has the ability to swivel the drive rack between front to back and side like the CM. There was absolutely zero difference in temps between the two orientations. I know it's not the...
