Intel Pentium D 830 (3.0 GHz x 2) / 50 C idle / no OC / air cooled -- Tt Big Typhoon + Arctic Silver 5
It would be nice if I had some better case cooling. It gets up to 47 C in there sometimes.

Wow, I have a feeling this is going to get dirty, but it won't be Athlon 64 x2vs. Pentiium D. It is supposed to be Opteron x2 vs. Xeon D (if that's what Intel decides to call it). My guess is that...
I just bought one of those big chunks of fanny goodness for my Pentium D since the stock heatsink was crap. Temps are down by 25C, but the thing takes up the entire space between PSU, RAM, exhaust...
Yeah, I was thinking PVC, but will the processor heatsink melt it?
Zeus, that's exactly what I'm looking for, but it's too expensive. Is there a way to do it from scratch?
I want to run a duct from my CPU fan directly to the rear fan port of my case. I'm using a stock Intel LGA775 cooler (about 2 inches tall) on an ATX motherboard, and my case (also ATX) has an 80mm...
My motherboard has no fan connector for a rear exhaust fan. What is the cheapest way to get the fan to work? Is it possible to splice it into another fan or connect it through molex?
yeah, I got a little carried away with the advanced editor. It was so shiny.
I'll see what the OP has to say aboutthe EL wire stuff.
Another good thing to have if you're going to be cutting sheet metal:
Throatless beverly shears
Just cut a rough outline with the shears and then grind it down to shape.
I'm thinking of using EL wire in a case mod I'm working on, but I would like some opinions before I make my final decision.
Has anyone else used EL wire in a mod?
Does it look good? What colors...
That transistor thing sounds like a good idea. I'll look into it.
OK. I've given this a little more thought. The case (not the stereo) is going to have wood panels bolted on each side with spacers to let air through the side vents (see pictures of case). I will...
This is my first case mod. I want to give it a vintage stereo look, like my old Pioneer stereo, with the wood panels and brushed metal.
