    Is this Tower good for my future rig?

    The Thermaltake Armor+ is a decent choice. Lot's of room for virtually everything: Long GFX cards Watercooling Up to 7 HDD Multiple 120mm and 140mm fans High profile CPU coolers Long PSU The built quality is okay. Not over the top, but considering the price it is okay. No sharp edges...

    Thermaltake DuOrb VGA Questions!

    Hello, the DuOrb VGA is not larer than the usual 8800GTX/Ultra stock cooler. It is about the same size. I think you can buy voltage adapter cables to adjust fanspeed, there is no way to adjust it on the fly though. At maximum speed, it is still quieter than the original stock cooling...

    Powering 4x eVGA GTX 280

    Four GTX 280? May I ask why? You can only SLI up to three GTX 280, the fourth one would be more or less useless in the system.

    Is there a way to power a 280 GTX with my Corsair HX620W?

    Same experience with Corsair support here. Living in germany I ordered additional cables for my HX1000W, not even 48 laters UPS delivered a package all the way from california to my house. Awesome, with support like this I'll definatly stick with Corsair products in the future. I am tired of...

    One of the first reviews for ASUS Lion Square

    That's why I bought the Coolermaster Z600, it has a very unique appearence and design. From a performance point of view it is about the same like the Noctua or Xigmatek HD-1283. But I prefer the looks of the Z600.

    Can the Q6600 do 3.7ghz or higher on air?

    Why try even higher? 3,6 GHz is a very good result on air, sure there are some people who got it over 3,7 GHz, but only a few. If you have the time, go aheah and try it. But personally I wouldn't use it for everyday news. I guess Vcore needs to be way above 1,45v, maybe even more than 1,5v which...

    lian li pc80

    I am also thinking about buying this thing. There is one major (or minor, you decide...) thing which keeps me away (besides the high price tag): The removable motherboard tray is great, but is it true that it has absolutely zero holes for cable management? I mean a case which is almost 300,-...

    Antec 1200 or Thermaltake Armor+?

    Here is what I did to chose between the cases: Write down what is important to you, appearence, features, size, space for larger CPU coolers, maybe watercooling and so on. Search for good reviews and videos of all the three cases. There are tons of reviews for both Stacker and Armor+, don't...

    Antec 1200 or Thermaltake Armor+?

    I'd go for the Armor+, but it depends on your personal taste. The Armor+ also have good options when it comes down to cable management. I'd say it has even better cable features than the Antec. The Armor+ also has more space for large graphic cards, the motherboard tray is a nice feature if you...

    Lian-Li X2000

    The first Lian Li case I would really like to buy. Too bad the price is simply out of the question. I love the design, the features, cooling possibilities but well over 500 US-$ is simply too much to spend on a PC case for me.

    What cpu cooler are you using on your 780i (evga) ?

    I am using an XFX 780i, but since it's reference design too, it shoudln't matter. At the moment I am using a Coolermaster Z600 for CPU cooling. Before that, a Xigmatek HD-1283 was cooling down my CPU.

    How i connect the side 230mm fan? Armor +

    That one is a bit tricky: You can't use any screws up there. I installed a 120mm fan by using double sided scotch-tape or let's better say something called poster strips. Usually they are meant to simple attach posters to your wall, but they can hold a 120mm quite good. There are better...

    How i connect the side 230mm fan? Armor +

    The solution is simple: Take out you HDD cage and look for a cable which features a 2 pin connector somewhere in the area which is covered by the cage. The case itself has one, it should be one of the many cables going into the case itself. I am wondering though why your 23cm fan wasn't...

    eVGA GTX280 Owners....

    I don't want to be an a$$hole here, but since evga doesn't release the tool for public download at the moment, I don't think it would be wise to upload it somewhere for public download. After all, it might be illegal.
