Your PSU is upside down.

[protput]

For an iPhone.. that's actually a damned good picture. >_>

I have LEDs in my case didn't use flash, just took an HDR picture ^^

Yeah, you guys Q.Q about your molex connector, fu, I HAVE A FLOPPY SHITTY LOOKING THING SITTING IN THERE LOOKING HORRIBLE!!!

Imo you should route those cables to the gromit, it would look much cleaner! But your case doesn't have a window, so w/e, right?

[DeltrusDisc]

Your PSU is upside down.

lol no it's not. ^_<

Why would they make the screws available like that, if it was meant to be the other way? Answer that for me.

Fan grill looks much prettier than some ugly sticker with warnings and crap all over it. Plus the fan wouldn't be getting nearly the same amount of air going into the power supply if it was flipped the other way.

HAF X sir.

Pretty sure I routed them that way for a reason, won't make much of a difference, either way.

The screwholes are there to allow people who are insisting to install their PSU upside down.

It makes no difference other than to make pesty folks like you rage.

Carry on.

[BicycleMafioso]

It does make a difference.

Right back at you.

I'll make it a priority though to let YOU know first, when my PSU actually has heat problems. Until then, you ain't got shit on this! ;p

(inb4 linking of some tests that prove otherwise, MY PSU is in a high-airflow computer case in a very cold basement, comeatmebro.)

[BicycleMafioso]

Your hostility in this is amusing, especially considering that you are wrong, and the HAF X is mediocre at airflow, except to the GPU - if you leave the duct in.

[Drunkenvalley]

There is a difference.
That difference is pretty meaningless. ouo;

You know it dawg.

And I don't know man, Cooler Master touts it as the HAF series, because of high airflow, SO IT MUST BE TRUE!!

All of my fans are at the lowest limits before they just shut down, which on the NZXT Sentry 2 is 40%, and my temps are almost always under 40 Celsius.

So again, comeatmebro!!!

Btw, my amusing hostility in this here computer forum chat thread event of tetrisGOAT vs DeltrusDisc ultimate mega gauntlet throwdown of awesome on two mountain tops with lightning flashing all around, of red, green, and blue colors and fucking volcanoes exploding and shit and armies of our followers battling it out below us.............................

>_>

MIGHT BE BROUGHT ON

By extreme boredom.

Girlfriend's parents decided that instead of her and I hanging out 5.5 hours ago, she should instead go shopping with them for school supplies and stuff and they are managing to still shop, somehow.

BRING IT ON TETRISGOAT THIS IS COMPUTER PART DEBATE BATTLE OF EPIC AMAZINGNESSSSSSS

[protput]

THAT IS WHAT I CALL SEXY!

[BicycleMafioso]

Interesting, something being brought up that I hadn't seen before.

I'd try to place a fan above the GPUs though, feeding them with air. Drawing in incidental airflow alone is likely insufficient, which is why open rigs have different air flow capabilities.
However, the choice not to watercool the GPUs is a strange one; If I were to watercool a "single" component, I'd always go with GPU(s). CPU watercooling is superfluous even with my 45nm Nehalem; I realise that is an LGA2011, but if one is already doing dual GPUs, I'd guess one is doing GPU-intensive things. The benefit in overclocking would lie to the GPUs rather than the CPU, despite how warm LGA2011 can potentially become.

There is a fan above GPU's :P And nevertheless, is that actually in use or is it just a vanity item? Looks like something you'd find in asus / corsair headquarters.

He posted that he was using it as a test bench ^^

The way I'm talking about above, is, what would in cases be the side-panel.

[Ghâzh]

That would totally ruin the looks. And it's not like it's made for everyday use either so I wouldn't bother. The cards are fully capable of functioning on their own in a test bench anyway.

[Cyanotical]

rofl

[DeltrusDisc]

You obviously need a 240Hz 2560x1440 monitor.

Get on it bro.

And idc if your cards are OC'd or not, post in the GPU OC thread. <3

[Cyanotical]

no, they are not overclocked, but that is far above stock, and i may be able to make it higher, i have my second 690 in an x8 slot, but it running gen 3 so i don't think it matters

[Drunkenvalley]

Gen3's double the bandwidth, so as long as the slot is actually PCIe 3.0 then it'll be more than enough I think... ouo
