    HD4770x2!

    Forget which rundown I read it in, but I believe that the 40nm process precludes the use of a bus higher than 128bit... besides the 512MB ram is it's real bottleneck, as the 2x 4770 crossfire setup only looses to the 4890 when playing games that cache tons of data.

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    NCIX carries them, but which ones should I consider? These all seem reasonably quiet while moving a fair bit of air: Scythe Slip Stream Kaze Jyuni 120MM Fan 1200RPM 68.5CFM 24DBA $11.88 each Scythe S-FLEX SFF21F 120MM Cooling Fan 1600RPM 28.0DBA 63.7CFM FDM $16.27 each Scythe Kama Flex 120MM...

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    I'm looking for good temps with low noise, given a mild overclock on an i7 920. Not sure about the heat sink yet, but I used a Xigmatek 92mm on the computer I built for my girlfriend and was considering their 120mm heatsink. I'd rather not use a fan controller, but will if that is necessary...

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    The airflow will be bottom to top, so I was thinking filters on the bottom would be a good idea. Glad you mentioned that sleeve bearings don't work when mounted that way... what does? I'd like to keep noise down as much as possible. Will be doing a mild overclock, but with the case design I...

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    Good to know about different fan types for the case and the rads. I wasn't aware of that. Are there better fans for intake or exhaust? Should I run my intake fans at a higher speeds and use filters?

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    I'll check out SPCR, seems like a good resource. That coolermaster 4-pack looks like a really good deal. I think I might have seen them at my local shop as well. Never tried their fans, but I have an older coolermaster case that I like. :)

    WIP, projekt 'Massive Passive'.

    Very interesting. I'll be watching this. :) I think I'll have to have a look at this new micro atx 1766 board from Asus...

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    Completely forgot about this thread, thanks for the responses guys. I'll look into the ones that you recommended. Stellar - Its for a custom build that I'm planning. I might not end up using all 10 though. :)

    What is the best deal for 120mm fans? [Need 10 minimum]

    Hi, Sorry if this is the wrong place, but I need 10+ 120mm fans for a build I am planning. I'd like to stick with reasonably silent well made fans, but need to keep this within my budget. Any suggestions on deals or anywhere that sells at reduced costs in bulk? Thanks in advance.

    Ah, I see. That should look good. :)

    Looking great... the only thing that I think detracts from the colour scheme is the yellow on the pumps. Have you given any thoughts to possibly covering that? Another copper or carbon fiber accent could work. :)

    PCI-E right angle adapter?

    Looks pretty good, but I think I've decided on a different route now with the case I have planned. Thanks for the link though. :)

    PCI-E right angle adapter?

    Yeah, that worries me as well. I think I'll just rethink what I was going to do with the case rather than risk it. :)
