Show Us Your Rig [3]

[Alsisgevat]

Well my instalations never took so long, usually a few minutes then done, so id restart imho

 

[ganjiry]

cheers! i just wasnt sure if it would cause more probs. nothin else i can do really i supose. its never taken this long b4 tho

 

[Alsisgevat]

Usually its just the disk getting old, sometimes
Cleaning it helps. But it could be more technical. But yeah just restart and hope this time it goes smoother

 

[ganjiry]

the disc i used didnt have spi included as it was my original and my room is all up in the air so couldn't find the disc and usb i created the other day. anyhow i hit the reset and it restarted and installed ok
back to it i supose. see ya 2moz with some pics

Looks great Ganjiry. But there seems to be allot of dust on the inside blades of your top 2 fans and also on the fans of your gfx card. :huh: Appart from that well done1 It looks great! And I am glad I wasn't the only one that used the ROG sticker hehe

Yea I didn't want to be the barer of bad new withthe Dust but a simple q-tips and some canned Air and you will look like a new model off the line

 

[ganjiry]

lol it looks worse than it is i gave it all a good brush n blast with compressed air. i wasn't gonna go as far as takin coolers off the gpu.
cheers tho folks

it does look proppa dusty in the pic tho

 

[pparks1]

Cases with dustshields are awesome to prevent the dust from getting in there in the first place.

 

[ganjiry]

agreed! thats one of the dilemas ive been havin over the last few wks. i bought some different metal meshes to make the filter but haven't sussed how to keep the one on the side panel flush without the fan grinding against it. dust is a pet hate of mine so i clean my pc every couple of wks. tis a pain in the ass but needs must enit

Some Q-tips in a little alcohol or alcohol swabs will be the best way to clean the dust and not damage anything

It will wipe all the dust up and dry immediatly and will not cause any kind of fire hazard /just in case some think it will lol

I have done this several times but only in extreme cases generally i like to keep it clean as i can a dusting maybe once a month is good enough to keep it rock solid and stable temps

 

[ganjiry]

cheers chap

 

[Alsisgevat]

Its been over a month and the only parts I am still waiting on are those stupid fittings, atleast the guy said I will definatly get them next week...

And then it's water cooling time!!

 

[ganjiry]

nice1 lokkin forward to some pics. i bet u cant wait to get stuck in

 

[Alsisgevat]

Yup, very excited! But while I was waiting for the fittings, I allready started to look at cpu and memmory waterblocks, unfortunatly you need money for them hehe

 

[ganjiry]

yeah it gets expensive enough without all the water cooling kit. water cooled rigs lookk real nice but i dont think id build one. maybe in years to come.

 

[Alsisgevat]

Haha, why wait so long?

 

[ganjiry]

lols cos i gotta stop spendin. i told the mrs id need £700 to build a pc. lmao! ive been through about £3000 deciding what i like
