Show Us Your Rig [8]

Yes good to see you Bilal! It seems you are doing well then.

My new computer has been down for about 10 days waiting for parts and redoing the harness.
I installed two more Phanteks PH-F140XP fans. I found one of my thermometers that I used when I did a lot of auto A/C work. It measures inside and outside temps at the same time so I can compare temps.
Outside case temp is 27.5C
Inside temp 28.1C
Humidety 72%
The added fans made a difference.
6/10 of a degree difference is about as good as it gets.
I also installed two NZXT GRID 10 port fan hubs. It makes it a lot easier when you got 13 fans to wire up.

I installed a StarTech Dual 2.5/3.5 HDD/SSD SATA Trayulell Mobile Rack.
Haven't tried it yet. The first one came broke. The little handle use to open the SSD part was broken. Pickup another intel 120gb SSD. I will tinker with it later.

Note: Temps do get better; 2/10 C difference between inside and out side case temps.
CPU average temps just being online is 33C.

The inside of your case is lower than the outside?

I'm really curious to see how that swap bay works out. Most bays like that one have issues with the ejection doors and levers breaking. That's why I like my Antec EasySATA; it has fewer parts to break. Sadly, it's not made anymore.

Thank you Jeannie. I have corrected the Inside/Outside error.

Dang! I was hoping you had some unique cooling trick we didn't know about. Those aren't shabby temps, though.

 

[Layback Bear]

No it's the way my gauge reads.

In means In the room where the gauge is sitting.
Out means using a temp sensor out side of the gauge which is inside my case. I have been watching it for a while and the difference averages about 1 C.
I'm also monitoring the the air coming out of the radiator. For no great reason, just curious.
I just do this to check and see if the changes I have made, helped or hurt the cooling.
Other than air conditioning the room I don't know of any more I can do.
The air coming out of the radiator is 29C.

With those temps, I don't know why you are worried. many people would kill for them. I cheat, I have AC.

 

[Layback Bear]

I'm not worried. I'm just trying to get the best temps I can. This system runs a constant 4.6 over clock with those temps. 4.6 seem to be the sweat spot with low vcore of 1.296v cpuz and 1.30v bios.

Thanks Gary it's good to see you guys too

Some really beautiful rigs here guys, il post some pics of mine tomorrow!

 

[paulpicks21]

Why wait until tomorrow when you can do it today! I know you have a camera I can see it in your avatar lol.

 

[Lady Fitzgerald]

Lookin' good!

 

[paulpicks21]

Very neat, great job. You can barely get the back panel on mine. I have to wrestle with it lol.

 

[HarriePateman]

Lets just say i need to sort out the "Cable Management"

 

[Britton30]

Look good Jack. Now if you would upload full size pics too...

 

[paulpicks21]

They look fine on my 90" TV lol

 

[Layback Bear]

With 13 fans the fan headers (2) sure did help a lot. All my fans and the two pumps run at 100%.

I have no problem with the back panel and I got room for more stuff.

Look what I found. It's a bit much but it does show we have room to grow if need be.

 

[paulpicks21]

OMG you could pretty much live inside that case haha! It's massive! I have not even played the vid, I am just looking at the shot of him sat by it.

 

[Britton30]

I'm not sure what you mean Gary
They look okay on my 27 in. and 40 in. screens.

What should the xxx (x) xxx be?

However it comes out of the camera.

The guy in the vid is only 3'10" so the case looks big.

This is at max size on my screen, it should fill most of the space.
click this, click again to see the full resolution.

 

[paulpicks21]

When you watch the video you will get it. The case comes in pieces. Lot of pieces.

It's on my to do list tomorrow Jack
