    My first build with a Corsair case (for my father). Dear Lord it is a pleasure. I'm remembering the horrors of cases back in the late 90s and shuddering now.

    They're so easy to build in. You can really tell that they look at the finer details of pc building (cable management, ventilalation, WC support) when designing them

    I hate working in most other cases now after owning a 600T and a 350D

    It obviously doesn't track how long you play off-line. I spent hours playing Half life 2 before I had an internet connection.

    Edit: Come to think of it, I think my numbers are not correct either. I'm sure they aren't.

    COD developer appeals for calm following death threats. Dramatic bunch aren't they, these COD players?

    LOL no wonder they dont balance their games if thats the response they get when they do.

    its a shame that COD will more than likely become the 2nd or 3rd biggest esport when the xbone comes out with twitch support

    One slightly problem with the 300R is there isn't that much room at the back for routing cables. It is supposed to be a more compact case than their full tower jobs so I suppose this is acceptable.

    When I consider the amount of non-Steam games I've been terribly addicted to over that time (WoW stands out as a time sink, Starcraft 2 would too). :pac:

    Lads my Thermaltake Frio is hella noisy.. I could hear it when I was in the kitchen o_O

    CPU stress test? Don't worry, games won't stress it half as much, you'll likely hear your GPU fan before you CPU fan when gaming.

    No, GPU stress test... I could be wrong in blaming the Frio but I have disconnected two chassis fans at seperate stages (I was able to reach in and disconnect them, not wise I know). Also turned off the card fans using Trixx to rule them out.

    Only thing that it could be otherwise would be the chassis fan blowing at the Frio, perhaps causing some extra noise?

    I'm guessing I just have the Frio set too aggressively.

    Edit: Despite setting Fan Speed to 0% in Trixx, GPU-Z is still showing 1480RPM as fan speed..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,979 ✭✭✭Tea_Bag


    you did what??

    dont turn your GPU fan off while stress testing it!

    or any fan for that matter!

    I don't think it's possible actually. My card spins at is minimum 20% even when I manually set the % to below that level. Maybe it varies from card to card.
