[bigrich0086]

Got the case 4 days ago but today was the day i had time to transfer it all over. Just waiting for the other gpu so i can install it and xfire them. All in all its a badass case and HUGE. I love the tool less design. and temps dropped 3c so far. Still gotta wait for the new AS5 to set and i reapplied it.

Its a great case aye. i was gunna get the 932 but glad i didnt it would be too big. Its cool the hdd and dvd drive takes literally 10 seconds to put in

 

[bigrich0086]

thanks. Just i need longer SATA wires so i can run them out of view.

i love the zip ties. lol

 

[bigrich0086]

The zipties i got at a new dollar store in 5 diff colors, large/small for 300 of them for $1. And since they had green in the mix i bought them

That thing looks so sturdy, looks awesome all lit up! :good:

Damn, that vertical PCI slot is genius!

 

[brighteyes]

nice case man!
give us some 3dmark06 when you're complete
and yeah that little slot rocks, reminds me of the old days when there'd just be random serial punchouts in the back.

 

[bigrich0086]

ill run 3d mark once other 4870 arrives and installed. might take longer as im too tired to even go on computer after work during week. so could be next weekend but hoping sooner.

did you zip tie your cpu cooler onto your motherboard?

 

[Laquer Head]

NICE man.! great upgrade!!

 

[Bodaggit23]

did you zip tie your cpu cooler onto your motherboard?

Of course not. Just the fans to the cooler.

 

[bigrich0086]

The zip ties was to hold the 2nd 120 on the heatsink.

This computer runs cooler thats for sure. In room temp if 81 i idle 36-40 and load at 58

 

[kkpudge7]

Zip ties are the best way to hold two fans to these types of heatsinks. I have it set up the same way on my TRUE. The flimsy clamps that come with it just arent sufficient.

 

[Cromewell]

I have a HAF932, it's a fantastic case. Not much different than the 922.

It looks like a good setup, I with my PSU had longer leads so I could route them behind the motherboard tray better like you have.

 

[bigrich0086]

Yea i was glad all wires ran behind mobo. Just need the 24" sata wires to hide them.

Looks nice A word of advice though...trim up those zip ties - get the edges as close to the interlocks as possible. Nothing like pulling your hand or arm out after cleaning or whatnot and getting a zip tie cut. Those bitches hurt.

 

[bigrich0086]

Got second GPU in and its running great So far. Need to buy some new games.

Keep in Mind Temps are fomr a Room temp of 81F

 

[bigrich0086]

GPUs are at stock clocks for this test. Only cpu was OC

 

[bigrich0086]

Got some better temp results.
