How good is that nautilus Matt? What sort of temps on the Q6600?

Only thing making any noise in my case right now is my Zalman 9700NT. It's between a Tuniq Tower and sub £100 watercooling for it's replacement right now.

Currently showing 27 degrees having been on for around 11 hours at various loads through out the day.

Office is a bit warm now, normally its around 19-22 at idle.

With the fan controller on the sharkoon fans they are quiet too, as is the Tagan.

Unfortunately I need to do something about the 7800GTX soon, I have a VGA cooler lying around so I might fit that when I get some spare time.

Thats better than I was expecting, actually. Wonder when Scan will get them back in stock

For the 7800, unless you really want it water cooled a Vf900 is completely silent at 5V and I've never needed to turn on up on any card.

You sure about that?

Maybe there is slight room for improvement, but I basically did well, didn't I

[staffsMike]

haha that looks like my brothers pc before i did it for him

[dave87]

Well all the cables are in the case, thats a good start

[notsobig]

Took me ages

Cable management for beginners, anyone?

[aidanjt]

bars, screwholes, back of motherboard trays, and cravetes around fans are usually good places to tidy up cables, a big bundle of zipties are always useful, better than spiral wraps imo. If you *REALLY* have patience of a saint there's brading or heat shrinkwrap to bundle the ones you need together.

[notsobig]

Thanks. I can't believe how well these people are hiding their cables. As you can see I used cable ties but still things look really messy. And great thing is this is larger case pc and I have another smaller case pc which has even worse cable management. If I feel like sacrificing myself again to show how good these people are, I'll post the picture later

[notsobig]

Ouch.


But better than I expected

[Gerrard]

Personally, I actually prefer working with ribbon cables than the rounded ones as they're easier to manage and hide. I believe there is even a name for it; "cablegami" or something

[Leepox]
