Or has anyone tried for that matter?
Planning on getting a new case soon that will have a 230mm side panel fan. I don't plan on taking the fan off and would like to use a shorter tower heatsink. I'd like to try a ultra 90 as its dimensions would fit, but I've not seen where its compatible...
Thanks for all the replies guys.
It looks like I'm going to get a cm 690 II advanced over a new powersupply. Powersupply will be upgraded within the year, but I will be on the lookout for a good deal.
Awesome. Thanks for the replies so far guys.
The psu upgrade is more for future proofing than anything else. I'll probably upgrade to a 5770 at some point this year, and I know my psu will be fine for it. Like I said though, the psu upgrade is more for futureproofing than anything else. I'm...
I'm sure some folks are like me - when they do a system upgrade they do it in phases; they buy some components for a new build and salvage components from their previous systems to upgrade later. This is how my current system is being built.
I just bought an i3 530, mobo, and 4 gigs of ram...
I fought the exact same battle you're having up until two weeks ago when I built my new system. I couldn't pass up the $99 i3 530. Just like you I'm not playing any games that really utilize 4 cores (I primarily play wow and games based off the source engine). It just seemed like the right...
Correction - we're both right -

There are two farm games.
Is that the heatsink hook standing upright on the right side of the pic next to the heatsink? Was it even seated properly?
I've done some cleanouts of systems for friends before. Nothing quite this bad though. There was always a night and day difference when I did a cleanout - this would be...
Judging from his list of games, I'd say the OP is trying to build several systems for a retro gaming lan (if he verified this, I might've skipped it).
That said, I've bought several athlon xp/mobo's for $10-$15 shipped off fs/t forums over the last year to build basic web surfing computers for...
What realm did you play on? PvP servers are so full of trash talk its ridiculous.
To be honest, I've been impressed with how well mannered folks have been in CoD4 and now in halo3. My memories of listening to potty mouths and sound board tards in CS from about 1.3 on have resurfaced since...
Thanks guys. Looks like I'm going with halo3. Are you able to select the server you want to join in halo3 or is it like most other games where you're automatically connected to a server?
Been playing CoD4 since mid-December. It's been an awesome experience, but I'm growing tired of multiplayer and I've finished the single player campaign. I'm looking for another shooter with a good multiplayer.
Right now I'm looking at halo3 and gears2. I've heard tons about the issues with...
