The Motherboard has arrived

That's a pretty decent looking board there Sergio... I'm not normally a big fan of blue / yellow boards, but maybe that's because I've been spoiled by how sexy XFX and higher range Asus boards look with their sexy black / green or black / blue colours (like mine)... Lol.

My PC upgrade plans have to be put on hold unfortunately, I was going to get a Zalman CNPS-9700 NT, two ThermalRight SLI GPU coolers and 4 new 120mm green LED fans (for my case mod idea)... But earlier this week I had to replace the brake pads on my car, so I have to pay off my credit card first now..

Nice Rig Dave,
I'm not too savvy on parts and hardware, I was wondering what this is I put the box around? next to the ram.
Thanks,
Derek

Thanks derekimo,

That's the 12cm fan on the CPU cooler.

Only an X2, Doc? I would get either a Phenom or an X4 like mine It's doing the job for me, and keep in mind i do a lot of photo editing, code editing and website administration, which takes up a lot of the CPU's power. Havent had a single problem with my X4 yet

I just wish I could remove the rainbow of colors in mine! All the damn lights bother me from the MB to the fans! As mine is mainly a Home theater set up these light remind me of the disco techs!

 

[johnwillyums]

Dave! That's a very nice looking rig. Excellent cable management (as we builder types say). What kind of HSF is that? How does the whole thing run?

Very well done

Techymike-short of physically disabling the leds on the fans (not sure how) you would have to swap them out for non led ones. That might be better because, in my experience, non led fans shift more air more quietly. Have a look at Akasa Apache or the Noctua range. They are drab looking but work really well.

 

[Dave76]

Thanks John, I had the case for 4 days before I got the MOBO, CPU & cooler, RAM, so I had lots of time to plan and get it started.
HSF is Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus CPU Cooler w/12cm fan.
No issues at all :shock: everything went together and it posted first time.
Been posting the usual info and ratings on the usual threads here.


Techymike, I like my case, but not the lights, it has a switch on the front I/O panel to turn the lights off. If it didn't I would of had to find a different one....
Blue would be better also, I'm not a red fan (pun intended)......

Very nice rig Dave. I am wondering if that Hyper 212+ comes with a 120MM fan stock or did you have to "rig" it up. I have a similar cooler and mine has a 92MM fan. Also, is that a 5770 in those pictures?

Anyway, no big deal.....the rig is SWEET!

 

[Dave76]

Thanks Nate, It's the stock fan that came with it, 120mm. The GPU is XFX HD 5770 1 GB, it's good so far, will take it for a run in the near future

Very nice. I sure wish the P55A had been out when I got my P55-UD4P. You have a nice system there. I built a very similar system. Great mind think alike.

I agree, nice specs you got, been keeping a watch on the SSDs, have one of them in my plan for the new rig maybe by summer
