PC Shop Open?

[Turin]

Nice; I would have probably bought that, but I'll try not regret my choice too much now :/

 

[urbanfox]

Never regret a purchase or else you'll be regretting every single hardware decision you'll ever make because something better comes out every month.

Hell, I'm kicking myself for not buying a yonah setup ealier, what whataya going to do, ya know.

 

[Turin]

True.

Oh and I just got my heatsink; just the processor to go and I can setup the new comp , I'll take some photos and post here. I hope I've got the right Power Supply Unit.

General question - errm, when you put a fan onto a case, is the air ment to suck inwards, or get blown out of the case? (i.e. direction of airflow).

Thanks :s

Depends where the fan is located in the case.

Usually fans in the front bottom panel suck in, back panel sucks out, top panel sucks out, and side panel can be either way depending on other fans.

 

[Turin]

I see, thanks. I guess I won't be using them, purely on the basis that they're DAMN LOUD.

My tower has two places for extra fans, with lots of holes, instead of one huge gaping hole. When the fan sucks it makes a squeeling sounds, and when it blows it sounds like a hoover.

>_<

Buy some 120mm fans, and run them at low rpm. Also, my fans made some whistling noise aswell as my case also had a grill with lots of small holes in it. Replaced that with some more sexy looking grills like

Urban, do you stock good quality watercooling units?

 

[urbanfox]

Urban, do you stock good quality watercooling units?

Depends what you're looking for.

 

[Blaminator]

Depends what you're looking for.

Full system cooling, all the essentials anyway, graphics card, processor, hard drive, ram?

 

[urbanfox]

Watercooling HDD/ram is inefficient and worthless.


After looking into it I feel it's not worth it on my end.

You don't have to look them up, there are no import taxes, I'm not going to explain myself.
