I finally gave in and purchased a Samsung 226BW! Here is a picture of my final setup!



Somewhat in the middle of reorganizing my room .

Have you done any OC'ing to your machine yet? Just wondering what type of results you're getting.

Not yet, but hopefully by this weekend.

One question guys, is the fan placement on the Ultra 120-E incorrect? You can refer to the picture on the second page in this log. It should be a photo of the the Ultra 120-E and the Crucial Ballistix ram. I'm some what afraid of moving the heatsink beacause I didn't screw it against the MOBO super tight (I was scared of breaking the MOBO ). But the main concern is scythe fan positioning. Would you guys say that is correct or incorrect?

Ambient Temp ~20C

CoreTemp 0.95.4 beta reports Core 1: 31C and Core 2: 34C. Both the upper and back Antec TriCool out take fan is on low speed. (low speed = 21CFM)

Good work!

And nice post if you ask me. You just made me feel bad, as I built my rig 3 months ago and enjoyed it so much, I just wish I could start all over again.
Enjoy the "thing" and OC them B4st4rds!

My Evga 8800 GTS 640 SC likes to be OCed with RIVATUNER and I reach 650/1010 no probs...

Post about your OC ventures!

Ummm...yeah your CPU fan in installed wrong. It is blowing in the wrong direction. You want to turn it around, so that the frame of the fan is up against the heatsink.

Yeah, I've suspected that it was facing the wrong way so I changed the direction of the fan. The temperature didn't changed at all though (I'm using CoreTemp and SpeedFan to measure the temperatures). Idle: 26C/31C and Load: 47C/50C

PS: I still haven't had the time to OC my system due to time constraints. (5 days of work and 2 days of school , I should have done it near the end of summer )

Hey Guys! I've got a question here:

Should I step up my eVGA 8800GTS 320 SC for a 8800GT or should I wait it out since I have 16 days left? Some opinions please!
