case modding

I have a lian li v1000, and I can't seem to figure out how to remove the ports. I don't know what kind of tool is required for the screws that hold it in place. IMG]http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y160/bigKr33/IMG_3032.jpg[/IMG]

picking the right case

I understand your point. I did that 3 years ago with my last build. I bought a cm stacker for my last build and yeah it was great and had plenty of room, but the darn thing was way too big. I realised i could of done the same or similar setup in the past with a much smaller case. And before i...

picking the right case

I posted recently for some info with reguards to the lancool k7b. This is just one of many options i have been looking at for my new wc'n project. The goal is to use a mid tower case. The k7b certainly seems like a possible option. As well as a simple solution. The case i've pretty much...

infinity speakers

In the next couple of months i'm possibly planning on buying a surround system. I don't want to get a kit, i prefer to piece together one myself. After testing some speakers out i'm pretty focused on infinity's cascade line up. I just don't know which ones to get. Or rather placement of...

I'm gonna be building a computer sometime around march-april time frame next year. Right now my computer plans is nothing more than brain storming for the right case. I want it compact and rigid. The k7b looks like a good option for water cooling because of the amount of space in the front. I...

The goal i'm trying to accomplish is a compact air cooled solution. My stacker is too big and too impractical, so its time for a smaller reliable case. The main problem though is finding a case that is small, but yet has great cooling properties and can house a 2.8-3ghz opty at reliable...

storm rev.2 mount on cpu (no ihs)

I just mounted it. What i did was, I followed the instructions that came with the block, but instead i didn't use the HS bracket supplied with the board, and i didn't use those plastic washers. It seems to work fine, but its hard to tell if its mounted level or not.

preping water cooling

Do you reuse the acidic vinegar to flush the radiator when you do several passes, or do you use fresh vinegar each pass? I fear for oxidation too, but somewhere i heard that only when you first install the water cooling parts for the first time you use only distilled water. And vinegar if...

So basically just run distilled water through the radiator, cpu block, and gpu block(if i get one) I don't really have to setup my pump to do this do I? Couldn't i just fill the radiator, drain it, and do it again a few more times to get the particles out. And as for the cpu block and gpu...
