I own this exact case and I've been very curious about a few things. 1) Do you still have this case/ set up? 2) How did you get the top fan in there? 3) How did you do the mesh front? 4) Did you change anything from this setup? Looking forward to a response :)
@WARguy16 - I'm benji's bro and I was there when he modded this case. He cut out the hole for the fan on top and he modded the front with mesh that he sanded down to give a nice finish. He added cold cathode bulbs and a fan controller, as well as a aftermarket Intel-I CPU fan. Very Nice indeed.
The most I've overclocked my Q9450 to is 3.2GHz. I monitor my temps through the BIOS, so I don't know if they are totally correct, but I get about 40 degrees celsius at idle and about 50 degrees celsius at load.
I have to say, I'm a huge fan of your work. You do such a great job on "Chess Now". Also, on your show "Checkboard Kids" you did awesome at hula hooping with the "Oh My God Girls", looked really fun.
Thanx let me know if you ever get out to NYC were always looking for people to come represent on Chess Now! I'm sure the producer Vex would totally pick your brain on the computer setup,
Hi Ben: Nice looking PC for sure. Great to talk with you yesterday! Thanks to enthusiasts and gamers for pushing the envelope; also for helping keep the modular desk top PC going so we can build what we want. 5 Star! PL&H K
Thanks dude! The song was off a mix from my sister, but I will totally find out and post it in the info tab for this vid. I will also respond again to this comment to let you know.
Thanks for the reply, I noticed you removed the spec. decal on the side of the PSU. Those are so ugly, there must be a better way for manufactures to list the specs.
I'm thinking about inverting mine, I think I should be able to get enough air flow with the fan facing up, The TT Armor Case has perforated mesh right above the PSU. That or remove those ugly decals. Hell with the warranty.
Yea, I realIy like the look of the black chrome finish of the PSU. I don't think removing the sticker voids the warranty. Obviously, you don't want to take off the warrenty seal tape. The sticker comes off clean and in good condition. I just stuck it on the top of the PSU, so I can always put it back. I do what I must for the aesthetics of the build. Hell, I considered removing the stickers off my EVGA video cards to make them all black, I that might be too extreme.
