mine?

not too bad actually, the cosmos (s) case is actually designed for full aircooled systems like this so it does a good job at reducing the noise. (though it actually does a good job of incorporating areas for water cooling too)

when i play games at full resolution and max settings, when all the fans in the system turn to full blast it warms my whole room by about 5-7 degrees. lol.

DRT, nice comp- why does that print screen show a CPU fan RPM, i don't see any fan on your chip.

dKamp, didn't realize you had a rifle v8- that thing is ENORMOUS. I bought one without realizing it was almost 2 pounds....Getting it shipped back.

My specs are from an HP build; didn't feel like going through the hassle of building my own computer and researching motherboard jumper settings/getting DOA cards, etc.

Surprisingly, the only fan in my case is a rear fan and a cpu fan(obviously). My desktop is completely silent(at least I am unable to hear it with my human ear, sitting 3 inches away from it :P).

I plan on upgrading this HP in a year or two. I'm really happy that it only runs on 350watts of power.

The pump uses centrifugal force to pump.  :smile:

You think that thing is big you should check out the heatsink I'm getting for my new system.. thing is a beast.

Thermalright True 120

yah, i almost second guessed using it once I actually got it out of the package and got a feel for it's actual weight.

however, once i lapped it, and lapped my processor it actually cooled the processor just as good as (if not better than) the thermal right ultra extreme black edition, but it was a few dollars cheaper.

and it came with it's own back plate so the weight doesn't pull too bad on the board.

It uses spinning to force water from the top through a chamber out the side tube.  It has a giant propeller like device inside the pump that has a magnet that's electrically/magnetically spun.  Hard to explain, you'd understand it if you looked inside the pump, next time I dismantle it I'll take a photo.

My case is also a Lian Li V2000B.  It's a monster. 


It can hold 12 hard drives, with space between for airflow.  The case is for Full ATX too.

Here's my system before watercooling:



Freakin' Zalmans... monsterous heatsinks.

Deekey, unless you made a recovery point the day you installed and saved it, the only way is a fresh format.  It's not so bad, it'll defragment your HDD better than anything else would.

Wow guys, and I thought I was an enthusiast. I'm lightweight compared to you guys.

Gumby and Maverick- beautiful systems. So clean and well-kept. I see that power supplies are much thinner than back in 2006 when I was custom-building.

I wish I could find out what kind of motherboard I had. HP says its got an intel p55 chipset- but I don't know who the motherboard manufacturer is. When 4GB DDR3 modules come out and drop down in price- I'd like to eventually upgrade to 16GB of memory.

All this really is overkill though; but computers are my thing. I don't spend thousands of dollars installing new rims on my car, or smoked taillights, or a pricey paint job- I just upgrade my system(maybe a little too often). In other words, I guess we all have our own "obsessions".

I'd like to hear what games you play, Gumby and Maverick.

Doom3, L4D, and UT3 don't sound hardcore- but Crysis, nice.

I guess you don't play any TF2 then?

UT3 is pretty graphics intensive.  I like the graphics better than crysis (I think crysis's trees are too 2d).  :3  I play CoD4 too.  Not much TF2.  I play an online MMORPG called Perfect World.  :p  Oh and I watch ungodly amounts of anime (Hence the 1.5TB storage space).

Yeah, if your drivers are the only problem, just download the newer driver set, and install them.
