Lamborghini X2

I'm still not understanding the top exhaust because it looks like the PSU blocks a good portion of the fan hole. Then again, there will be so much positive airflow that it will be pushed out the top. I don't know... Can anyone else analyze this?

Well, I was searching for fans and found the SilenX at FrozenCPU.com. So I tried looking for reviews through a Google search and all I found was forum topics. Basically, people were saying that their specs are lies/inaccurate (mostly that the noise is higher than the dBA rating). Supposedly, they even have their own employees register to forums and claim their product as the best. If I remember correctly, the SilentPCReview.com forums bash them. But, I only follow this forum, so I'll take your opinion over theirs.

Here is the Noctua fan if you were interested/curious. They also have one with a lower RPM.

Well I dont know how well it will work, but it makes sense to me! Heat rises doesn it? lol

But who knows, things dont always work the way you think they would. Might just have to wait and see?

hmmmmm ... interesting. I'll tell you, I actually put my ear up to the one I used (like the top left in the box) and still couldn't hear it. Whereas all the other types I've used (and I've used a lot) I could hear them just sitting next to the system. I think Thermaltake and ADDA (hope this is the right name, the ones that come with Lian Li cases) are the quietest fans besides SilenX that I've used.

The problem with SilenX in my opinion is the power. Very quiet, but doesn't move that much air around. The CFM's are usually very low on SilenX.

I do try and pay attention to this. I love a quiet machine. Most people seem to go for the Las Vegas fans (bright & flashy :D ) I always go for the sound and power factors (with the exception of my round fan - which is a pretty quiet fan being a TT fan) Now, I love bright & flashy like the next guy, but ... if it makes too much noise, it's outathere!:D )

Thanks for the heads up though, and the tip on the Noctua fan. Ill check them out;)

Sure, I'm in no hurry. If it gets too hot, I'll just move it to below the bays and try again. :D :D

Just a quick note ...
I'm doing another mod this weekend, a BIG one. I'm repainting my 9 room house, ALL the rooms, and each one a different color :) So ... I'll try and get something done on the PC while I take breaks from painting. :) :) Back on track by Monday.

OOO... you are going to show us the pictures of your other mod, right?? :P

Great work on the lambo mod. I wish I could tell you more about the fan-situation, but I don't know a lot about it. Just that normally people try to get air from the front and blow it out in the back... but you knew that allready :s

keep up the good work ;)

:D Maybe :D

Just trying different combos ...

With Lambo guard on outside ...

Maybe up on a platform ...

They all look pathetic to me:redface:
I ordered a couple of more fans today, just to confuse me more.:eek:

I think notching the door, and going with the original setup looks the best :rolleyes:

Checking bays ... leather needs a slight trim with the razor.

Going to add leather to the DVD as well.

And for the curious like me.:D
Now, what do those speakers look like:p

hhmmmm ....

Just about the size you would find at a movie theater:D

:)

if you have a piece of mash around there, paint it pearl white or silver, cut it to shape and put it under the guard (it looks great on the outside)

You think it looks better then the round fan on the outside?
