    Ditch the Innovatek for Thermalright ultra 120e?

    Thanks for the comments, folks. Much appreciated. It's proving tricky to find any decent amount of comparison data online... and much of what's out there isn't entirely relevant or it's outdated. Here are a couple sites I've run into so far...

    Ditch the Innovatek for Thermalright ultra 120e?

    FWIW, with my current setup (A8N-SLI + 3800 X2 stock clock, 90nm) my load temp maxes out at 40C. From a bunch of googling it looks like a lot of people max out at 50C+ on air. But I still have to wonder how it compares to the thermalright or a tuniq tower.

    Ditch the Innovatek for Thermalright ultra 120e?

    Hey all, Any thoughts? Starting to build a new system and I'm thinking of going back to air, as I'm no longer WCing my GPU and chipset (upgraded to 8800gtx and I'm not planning to WC it). So right now I've got just the Innovatek XX Flow 2 block on my X2, going to their dual 120mm rad, and...

    Project: Digg (custom case) Finished

    Looking good! Did you spray the pearl clear straight on the keyboard keys? Any adhesion promoter or anything? Also (if you don't mind sharing), I noticed you painted laptop trackpads/buttons on your site. I'm assuming bc/cc (omni as well?) for the topcoats... but what kind of primer do you...

    USB repeater for gaming?

    Interesting... I hadn't considered power hubs at all, but it makes sense, and sounds a little more reliable and a little less gimmicky. Also, I just realized the cat 5 extender is usb 1.1... is 12mbps even sufficient for a slew of USB "gaming" devices? Sound, a wheel with shifter and pedals...

    USB repeater for gaming?

    Hey folks, anyone have any recommendations? I would like to set up a dedicated remote area for gaming (approx 40' away from the PC). The video will be taken care of with a 50' DVI cable, but I'm concerned about the USB support. Given my intentions, I'm wondering if lag from input devices (and...

    Can I control a D5 pump with a fan controller?

    Yeah, it was a little bit of a surprise... thanks again for the heads up on the pot, works like a charm! Good luck w/your dual pump, sounds like you'll be moving a heck of a lot of fluid.

    Can I control a D5 pump with a fan controller?

    Thanks, E! I'll have to follow up with the end product once I'm done... since I'm not really watercooling a CPU with this pump. The need to control flow rate will make a lot more sense soon :) H: Massive cap was there already... didn't expect it, either, based on the systemcooling article...

    Can I control a D5 pump with a fan controller?

    Had a chance to get it done this weekend, worked great! Ran some 22awg to a remote 10k pot and slobbered some hot glue on the newly soldered connections under the pump cover to help hold everything in place. Ran the wires out through the hole used for the original pot, too. I'll get some pics...

    Any idea for a fan controller for a crazy high wattage fan?

    This is going to sound ridiculous, but it's a weird one-off project anyway. I have a 240cfm bilge fan that operates on 12v (though this particular system sometimes peaks at 14-15v), and draws 4.5a. So let's say 70w at most. Can anyone think of a reasonably priced way to control the power...

    Can I control a D5 pump with a fan controller?

    Hmm... I was basing the draw off this site: http://www.dtekcustoms.com/browseproducts/DTC--D5-12v-Pump.html Which lists it as 5-20w. The sunbeamtech fan controller is good for 20w per channel according to their specs. Also since input voltage is anywhere from 8-24v, I wonder if the 5-20w...
