Hi fraggit!

Hmm, seen that case around before. It is pretty slick. Nice choice.

Was lookin to change my case as well, but given the price of a bess powersupply, think I'll stick with the old housing until some extra cash is laying around.

Hi Eroo, New_Era_Outlaw, NoobGoneWild.

Yes it's a pretty cool case, i managed to arrange most of the wires so that i can get a clear view of the mobo. i'm just waiting on my gfx card b4 i can fire it up.

that and i need some thermal compound.

W1nTry · « **Reply #27 on:** March 14, 2008, 03:04:25 PM »

Hmm I now checking this meng have my case... well not quite, mine has the window but yeah... it's a decent case although I still would prefer a Lian Li... and I eh settle for no peepsqueek 400W PSU, 700W OCZ GamerX ftw!

fraggit · « **Reply #28 on:** March 14, 2008, 06:29:48 PM »

yeah, wished i could have gotten the one with the window now that would have been nice. i changed the psu out though to a 750W toughpower.

can this stuff be used on a cpu: http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10001&catalogId=10001&pa=259151&productId=259151&keyCode=WSF

Nephilim · « **Reply #30 on:** March 15, 2008, 10:49:35 PM »

yeah it can

fraggit · « **Reply #31 on:** March 16, 2008, 09:41:22 AM »

is it any good though, can i put it on a quad core cpu?

Nephilim · « **Reply #32 on:** March 16, 2008, 10:42:00 AM »

yeah, its no arctic silver, but it's better than the stock stuff, use it sparingly, only need enough to thinly cover the surface of the cpu package, use about a 1/5th of the package and a phone card to spread it.

fraggit · « **Reply #33 on:** March 16, 2008, 11:25:25 AM »

really? ok...never heard of this stuff before... was trying to find some more info on the net like a review or something

trying to get some silver but it may be a week or so b4 i get it

Nephilim · « **Reply #34 on:** March 16, 2008, 12:59:42 PM »

man a week, small thing, 'will' it out, the silver is much better

that stuff you may have to look into electrical/electronic hobby sites to find a review (if any) for, it was made to be used for transistors (high power switching and amplifying mosfets) if you ever seen inside a pwr supply is the big 3 pin black package with a bolt attaching it to a heat sink.

you think a CPU does give heat, man i touched one of those in class a time, and nearly get my finger bun off

fraggit · « **Reply #35 on:** March 16, 2008, 01:11:19 PM »

oh. well this is what i was able to find:

A noob to the site but not a noob to gaming. I'm mainly a PC gamer from since the good ole commodore days(no I'm not an old man I'm 23 lol). I didn't even know there was a forum for T&T gamers. This is sweet and hope to become a part of the family.

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #38 on:** March 29, 2008, 10:59:30 PM »

Well met redfish. How did you find out about us?

More importantly, what games you sweating nowadays?

TheApprentice · « **Reply #39 on:** March 29, 2008, 11:24:47 PM »

Welcome to the forums, and I wish you a great experience here...
