Solved Just got my new Corsair Vengeance Series C70 case !!!

[AddRAM]

I put my XFX board in it and I can`t believe the temps, amazing and I only have 4 fans running plus the PSU stays so cool, I`m so happy !!! I have to buy adapters just to hook up the other 4 fans. I put 2 120 mm blue led fans behind the front cover and 2 140 mm at the top. The HX650 will be here tomorrow and I just ordered an OCZ Vertex 4 VTX4-25SAT3-128G 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive. A Kingston HyperX memory cooler is also on the way. I`m gonna just run 2 500 GB WD with the ssd and I just put in a single XFX 9600 GT Alpha Dog Edition. The 3 hard drives in it now are running at 88 86 and 86 unbelievable :shock:

This case Rocks !!!!!

I`ll post pics later.

Well it sound like you are very happy. That good.

No tall ram heatsinks here, they are just PNY OPTIMA wrapped with a silver colored heatsink. The Kingston cooler will sit on top fine. I`m using the Cooler Master Hyper N520

I may get these, but it might be a waste, not sure if this board will run them at 1066

You can see the memory here in the old case.

With the force this cpu cooler is pulling towards the back of the case, the ram cooler may not even work.

Congrats on an excellent case ADDRAM. Corsair makes a nice case.

 

[Layback Bear]

I understand now.

 

[AddRAM]

No I`ve never been a fan of Kingston ram. The Power Supply will be here tomorrow after I install that I will post pics. This old Xion case is goin to the scrap yard LOL

 

[Layback Bear]

I will just enjoy the pictures when posted.

AddRam,
I would save the purchase of DDR2 ram for the purchase of a new mobo, cpu and DDR3 or coming soon DDR4 board and ram. The high cost of DDR2 just isn't worth it IMHO. Likewise can't wait to see the pictures posting your new case. I just built a 400R and it was a wicked build and case !

I'd have to agree with Alan on that one; you can get 8-12 gigs of DDR3 for about the same price of that 4 gig kit. It's nothing but diminishing returns from the get-go.

Looking forward to seeing the new case.

The HX650 just arrived so I have to get it in there. I did such a good job with the Ultra I don`t want to swap it out. LOL

Just kidding, I know the reward will be worth it.

This thing is gonna smoke when I get the ssd installed.

 

[linnemeyerhere]

Just wait till you do your clean install on that SSD, man your mind will be blown how much faster things happen. Then after the system is used to all it's drivers, updates and locations for things the turn off time and boot up much less popping up Photoshop or Outlook, Word, Excel any heavy program will just take a fraction of the time. Unfortunately you will normalize to this but at first you'll just want to keep re-booting the system ! lol

 

[AddRAM]

My HX650 is chirping LOL !!:

Read about it online and thought no way would they still be doing it. Already got an RMA from Corsair.

 

[Terronium 12]

If it's thing you can say about Corsair, it's they live only to make sure their customers are happy. I've yet to have anything branded by them up and die on me, that is if I didn't inflict death upon it myself.

Like my dearly departed DDR2 Dominator's.

 

[AddRAM]

Maybe I`ll get lucky and they`ll ship me back a 750. If the next one chirps I`m gonna be pissed !!

They assure me on the Corsair Forums that RMAing it will solve the issue, we shall see.

It`ll be 2 weeks b4 I get it back !

 

[Element7]

Great case you got there!

 

[AddRAM]

Some pics.

 

[Dallas 7]

If all that was 1 computer, I think I just counted 6 possibly 7 case fans?? Definitely no shortage of fans. LOL
Nice case AddRam.

 

[AddRAM]

There`s 12.

 

[Element7]

There`s 12.

You could probably keep some beers cool in there!
