Hey mate, did the H100 fit in the 500t OK?

@Bluegiz90

I first had to remove the huge fan (240mm?)

Then I removed the grill on top. You will notice holes for two 120mm fans.

The fans go on top and you use the long screws to attach it to the radiator.

I have the fans pulling the air at the moment.

Also, your MB/OS will have no control over the CPU fan speed; you will have to click the button on the Corsair block to setting one or two...unless you want your computer to sound like a airplane.

Is 60gb SSD enough to run Windows 7 ultimate? :)

[HeavyWinds]

@frugis No, but the Z68 chip-set has a cool inlet feature called intel rapid storage technology. They use it on enterprise servers and now we have it on a consumer MB. All you need to do is plug it in the the correct sata port (i think blue in color) then you turn it on. It will use the RAID feature to fill up the SSD with the most used data (aka cache) Is about 80% as fast as having a SSD only solution. Works very well.

I always hated the psu part of building i know its pretty much idiot proof but they should still label the shit so you know where they go.....

nice music



[Recon9143]

dont you need some artic silver for your cpu

[andrefrbk]

nooo noooo why didnt you go with the fatal1ty... I just got one, its fuking crazy, and OC's like a beast.

[TalesOfWar]

@Mixamaximus Depends how impatient you are lol. I generally test it first, but not always.

[dkooys]

Sick build, but your downfall is the cpu cooler even though I know you replaced it. Great track also. Thanks for the video bro. How do you like your case?

[TheEpicDjGAMER]

he i have a question....in the 600t it specifies 1x USB 3.0, but it doesn't say if it's a header, or a cable that you thread though the rear. I have a USB 3.0 supporting board but no header, just the rear IO ports, and hate having left over front panel connectors that i have to hide and leave an useless port on the front panel.

if i sat like that my legs would be dead a sleep

[KronicKillaz]

Do all of your friends just walk in? lol
