Post your gaming setup!

I have nothing to replace it with really. I cant send the h100 back since i mangled it pretty good to make it fit in my case. Ill weigh my options at my work shop and possibly just mock up a replacement with a regular nut/bolt and some washers or something. For now im rocking it with 3 and it seems to be doing fine.

Was more thinking of just going to the hardware store and get a new screw.

Wow, that's a really narrow motherboard.

[DeltrusDisc]

jmt, either it is the picture, or it is the reality, but I love how the insides of your computer look!

[Xuvial]

Wow, I remember when 4890 CF was pretty much the only thing that could maintain 30+ fps in Crysis @ 1080p at max settings. That's a classic rig :P

[jmt]

Thanks for the kind words, guys.

Yes, the motherboard is very narrow. I'm not sure why, though. I am weighing options on how to change the white on the side panel. I'm looking at a thin, adhesive black foam panel instead of paint. It'd be nice to add a little sound deadening to the case if possible.

I built this rig in May of this year. I have been piecing parts together since May of last year, when I bought that H50 on clearance for $20. I got the 4890's from New Egg brand new for $75/piece on Black Friday.

Some of the parts are old tech, but they are still running great.

I've got water blocks coming for the 4890s. Even with all the reviews I read, I never imagined they would be as hot as they are. However, the known fan noise issue was remedied by me right off the bat, so they're not too terrible loud.

Edit: Here's a shot of the box with the flash on.

[Drunkenvalley]

I couldn't quite get the pictures I wanted with the complete absence of light, even with some borrowed light from the house. We haven't connected cables yet, but the loop's been bled and stuff. So we're about done.

Specs
i7 3930k

We were originally going to install a third radiator in the roof, but I realized post-arrival that the 45mm rad I'd picked wouldn't quite fit in place. Durp. Until we can remedy that, I've gone back on my plan and just gone with two 240mm rads in the bottom... Which are completely unsecured, because goddamnit I can hardly budge them in the first place where they are now.

Watercooling specs
EK Supremacy Copper/Plexi
EK CSQ GTX 680 Copper/Plexi
MIPS Nickel/POM Asus X79 blocks
Alphacool D5 Pump Station (bay res+pump)
Alphacool XT45 240mm x2
Enzotech compression fittings and adapters
Primochill Primoflex Pro 1/2" ID tubing

The tubes on the motherboard are messier than I wanted them to, but I couldn't find a cleaner route. Damned things kinked with what I originally planned, and the alternatives I could think of would largely end up worse looking again. :<

Can I ask you what the fan at rear is called? and if it's a 140mm?
Cause I've been looking for 140mm white LED fans and it's rather hard to find a place to buy them in Denmark. I had to look on ebay and amazon to find good ones with a rather low postage price. I've found one now though, but I'm just curious

[Drunkenvalley]

The case only fits 120mm in the rear, so it's a 120mm fan. ouo;

[Shakatoss]

Oh damn, I did not realize that :P Thanks haha!

[jmt]

Yep, 120mm.

It's made by Enermax. The part number is: UCAP12. They make a 140mm version in white (UCAP14), but I can't find it either. I need one to replace the fan in my PSU.

If you're up for some different colors, they have some very cool 2 and 3 color fans. So far, I really like it. Looks better and is quiter than the Xigmateks I used for my last build.

What about Enermax cluster?

[Shakatoss]

Okay thanks!
And nah, right now I'm going for a black n white theme for my rig I might get 2x120mm white LED fans too for my H100, but I'll wait for that. Not sure if I like that much light :P
But I'm post pics when I've mounted my 140mm fan in the rear. I actually just got it in the mail today! Hopefully gonna fix it tomorrow

[Xuvial]

Weeee pics time

New stuff:



Cleanup time! And of course putting the new fans between the radiator and the case top was a pain...



Taking apart the GTX580...the thermal paste was pretty much powder by this point...



This thin-ass heatsink ends up eating 3 slots. Grr grr....



H100 with *proper* fans this time...



The NZXT 2 meter LED kit in action. Only the front fan is LED, the rest of the light is coming from the wire. And before you say "fucking hell Xuvial that's not a computer, it's a 12-year-olds fantasy of christmas and looks immature as fuck" the kit was set to maximum brightness and the camera makes things 10x brighter than they actually are.



It does make a rather pleasing silhouette...(again, maximum brightness dammit, leave me alone)



You can see the LED controller on the far left side. With the side panel on the wires aren't visible, and that's all that matters right

[Konijntjes]

How hot is that harddisk getting with the ssd on it ?

[SpaceDuck]

considering there is a big ass case fan next to it, im guessing not very hot

[Drunkenvalley]

How're you liking the fans, Xuvial? Running them at low speeds or something?
