Crazy New Case

[tsmitho]

my case is decent for cooling its just way too big and heavy. i did fail at liquid cooling tho because i had a little pump that was only rated for like 4 ft and i had about 8 ft and three processors i was trying to pump through. moral of the story get a pump that can keep up with everything or you will overheat your 4850X2 and be out several hundred dollars :/

That's why I left my video cards out of the loop. I still have some issues with my pump though, but it might be due to the radiator picking up particulates and forming a kind of a clog in the line.

Ya I replaced the card after it broke and I leaving that out for now. I might add it back in if I get more money. I would def get a new pump tho and I'm even thinking about making my own resivware (I can't spell) with a thermo electric cooler

Ok really now, its like hanging 2 inches over the side of your desk. Its a picture and its freaking me out. One earthquake would knock that over, and thats like once a week here in So Cal.

Ha, it's the angle, there's over 2 inches of desk clearance on the left side of it. Not to mention the thing ways 45lbs and I haven't heard of many earthquakes in Denver.

I got this doodad and I love it.

Is that top easy to come off? Screws? I think it would be a pain to have that case if you need access to all the inputs and outputs on that board.

bullet... I agree. I built my latest rig with that case and it is awesome! Plenty of space for my MOBO and superhuge cooler! No temp issues at all. Also, the top panel connectors are perfect for me and I like the blue fan in the front...

Ditto and Ditto. Great case but if you were to run an sli setup, it would be real tight. And that would make this one a little hotter. I Like mine, but i just run 1 260.

Araris, does your sound card actually fit in the PCIe-1x slot between the vid cards? That's the one thing that scares me about those mobos. I'm worried about dual-slot cards rendering that middle slot unusable.

The E759 Classified board only has one PCIe-1x slot and that's above the video cards. My sound card is PCIe-1x and is sitting in a PCIe-16x2.0 slot since the Classified has 4 that run at full x16 due to the Nforce200 chip. So technically I could put my 3rd 280 in there and still have a PCIe-16x for the sound card as well.

It just lifts off (the top, not the case ), it has a few pin type things that allow it to sit firm on top but you can just pull up and it comes off.

Ah, didn't realize that. Thought it was in the middle.

Ah cool. I wouldn't mind that then! Neat case, very original!
