Here’s a little project I’ve been working on since Christmas, its taking time because moneys a factor But I’m in no rush I call her Scully
I’ve had the mobo since Christmas (Gigabyte 7N400PRO2) and bought the PSU the other day which is a Silent XPower AOpen, I chose that because of it’s “12 fan and huge exhaust, it’s meant to be incredibly silent – It’s even got a knob at the back for complete control Might try it out later in my current machine
The case is a Cooler Master Cavalier – TO3 – picked it up at PCWorld the other day, would have cost much more with shipping online. It looks so very sexay, there’s two USB and one Firewire just to the left of the front and audio/MIC to the right, the hinge on the door is solid too, can’t see that breaking anytime soon. Very pleased with it indeed My only gripe is that the fan control for the Processor fan isn’t flush with the rest of the front, it’s got to sit in deeper so that the door can close, my knobs too big
The fans a Gigabyte 3D Cooler Pro, All I need is an AMD XP for it to sit on, thinking about going with a 3000 Barton
My only concern is whether or not the cooling and fans contradict themselves? There’s an 80mm at the front which is sucking air in and then there’s the 120mm and the “12 PSU fan sucking air out, but when you add the Cooler Pro into the equation, it’s going to be sending some air into the wrong direction, would it not?
