Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
Looks good, it'll be interesting to see how that Enzothing works.
You actually had more clearance between the RAM cooler and vid card than I did.
Almost looks like if you flipped the cooler so the power lead was on top you'd be OK...
Was that backplate cooler really copper or just aluminum with copper flashing?
And finally, a question...why did you mount the eSATA port on the roof instead of the backplane?
Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
At first I flinched when I saw you removed the backplate all together. I thought that the enzotech would be heavier than it is, and need something to help dispurse the weight. I looked it up and it's only 20 grams heaver than my Scythe Ninja (835g vs 815g). The ninja is fine without a backplate, so hopefully you will be okay.
All in all, it looks good!
Post up some load temps!
Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
The prob with the ram cooler is that the only available 3 pin connector was over there and I tried taking out the wire last night and I do have about 3/16" space but the other prob is now it vibrates over next to the Enzotech and make an annoying noise there I space it and it moves back over. Also I forgot to mention I covered the metal hardware close to the Vid card in electrical tape as I think I saw you do somewhere to prevent any shorting at all.
Far as I could tell it was copper, it was real haevy thats why I think so, but I could be wrong...I'll send it to the lab!
Oh it's heavy but I think it will be ok as long as the computer isn't dropped, then I feel it might snap the Mobo.
The other prob is I put the E8400 back in and the temp sensor issue is not letting me see an accurate reading it always says 41 degrees even if I blow compressed air directly on the heatsink. Ahhh I might have to go back to the q6600 to at least see the temp difference, son of a bitch, Clocker did you say yours got somehow unstuck or am I imagining this?? If so what did you do or was it just random?
I mounted it to the top so I could access it without pulling my computer out of it's snug little home under the desk ( Wife makes me keep it there) this is not my desk in the pics this is my work area in the basement where I harvest computer parts from peoples broken dell's and gateways:P I have some pics of the mess down there too. Mostly junk but if you need a spare part name it and it's yours!! I'm not kidding

Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
The sensors on the 8400- and one on the 9300 too- seemed to loosen up after a few rounds of OCCT.
Seems weird but it happened.
Why not just extend the leads on that ram cooler?

Where are the pics of yours? Yeah I forgot to resize them, sorry
Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
I'm having trouble seeing the whole thing on this resolution what with the hugernormous images. From what I can see it look nice and neat, though.
I'm liking the cpu-cooler.
Once I wanted to put a pc into one of them G4-cases you have in one of the pics, never got around to it though. I'm not keen on macs in general, but those cases look really sweet. True story.

Re: Finnaly the rebuild....
I think clocker did it and I was going to do it a bit differently than I have seen before, but as you prob know shit happens and theres not much time left in the day after work and the kids :(

Wow some time has gone by and if you really want it I will send it to you but you have to pay for shipping.
