Just watched the video review......very nice.....gives you the option to water cool if you need too in the future.....also 2x200mm fans and 1x120mm as standard and the option to have another 200mm on the side panel is just the ticket for what your gonna run fishy old bean.

http://www.ebuyer.com/product/173955...edium=products

According to ebuyer it includes x3 200mm fans.....and all that for £109.00 including delivery.

Running a wc rig tbh IMHO is easier than a air cooled one, no air flow bollox to think about, just barbs and hoses.




Working seven to eleven every night, It really makes my life a drag

yeah think this is on top of my list but also the antec 900 2 and also but cheaper the Coolermaster CM 690 II Advanced. the sniper is just a bit fat, but then it's whats inside that counts.

I have the corsair H50-1 Hydo. best option if you Can't be asked with all them pipes.
motherboard wise may do this

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Asus-...6Gb-s-RAID-ATX

but as i'm not into extreme oc like you chaps the top mother board should do me.
already have the asus gene maximus 3 a cut down version of this motherboard to fit into small cases. but as i'm not into extreme oc like you chaps this motherboard should do me.

http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Asus-P7P55D-E-EVO-Intel-P55-Express-S1156-DDR3-2200(OC)-SATA-II-and-III-RAID-USB-20-and-30-ATX ???

Want to have USB 3 and sata 3 on the board, but also good space between the gpus in sli, like tb's new motherboard the gigabyte.

My Gigabyte is crap for using dual cards in the adjacent slots (the 2 x16 lanes)

I have moved the second card to the bottom slot (gap in between) so one is in a x16 and one a x8 - The difference in speed is negligable but you get better airflow / temps.


286 - Intel 80286 @ 6MHz - 512K RAM - 64K ROM - 640x350 @ 64 Colours - 5.25'' disk drive - MS-DOS 3.0
Now, if that's a fact, tell me, am I lying?
