The enermax liberty series is very nice, im really happy with my 500w
At first I was thinking about 620W, but since 500W is enough for me and the price differance is quite noticible, so I chose the 500W version :D :p

edit: It's going to take a while before everything is in :( and I'll post oc results :D

That fan looks quite nice with that many fans and all. One thing: are the intake front fans blocked when the panel is closed? Is there enough room to draw air in?

[PimpMySystem]

doesnt look like it draws much air in at first to me
" maar dat was vast een koopje LOL :D "

[Skorp]

It draws in plenty of air from the front. The sides of the door are quite deep, and are filled with air vents, giving more than enough airflow for the case, while blocking noise from escaping it.

thx for the info skorp

i have the super lanboy and im cool with that plus id rather use my money to upgrade more important things.

" maar dat was vast een koopje LOL :D "

niet echt € 124,- ;)

edit: with a bit of luck the stuff is here this week :50:

A few days ago everything arived! I was so exsited that I started transfering all the hardware out of the old case into the new case right away.
now I'm done and I'm VERY happy with the result, it was my first 'build' afterall.
temps are nice and low from what I've seen so far (running for about 30 min. :D)
time to oc :p

[PimpMySystem]

show me some results neighbour :)

[(----____JEFF____----)]

oke I can't give temps really cause I'm still trying out higher v's to the cpu. but idle is around 36C with a room temp of about (I think) 20C.

edit: and it's very quite :p

edit 2: I oced it too 2700Mhz @ 1.65V load (prime95) temp is ~58C that's with the cpu fan @ ~1500 rpm. It seems to be the max this cpu will take cause @ 2760Mhz it hangs.
does someone have any idea what is limiting this oc or is this my max. I have the memory @ 2/1 (not permanent just for ocing) so that's not the problem and the ht is not the problem either cause I set that lower too. fsb =@ 225 Mhz (stock 200) x 12

edit 3: oke after clearing away some cables I found out that the cpu fan was pointing in the wrong direction :yeah?: so I turned it around and now I'm re-ocing and stressing.

[PimpMySystem]

sorry i answer so late (vacation and then forgot) nice temps what cpu fan do you use ?? anway if u wanna oc good and have it even more silent you might wanna tried to modify it for scythe ninja :) and damn watch out with te freakin fan smartass http://www.nedermagic.nl/meerinfo.asp?cardid=52112 :D you are a babarian http://www.nedermagic.nl/meerinfo.asp?cardid=52032 to your components how could you, dumb ass :p

damn i hate it having to talk english to you when it is easyer to write dutch :(

[(----____JEFF____----)]

sorry i answer so late (

no problem your the only one that placed a reaction after I installed everthing :) and about the fan, I installed the one that came with it, it's very quite at ~1500 rpm. I can't hear it over the case fans :D + the fan doesn't seem to effect temps that much (1C difference between 2000 (max) and 1500 rpm)
to be honest I don't think scythe ninja will give me much better temps, the only difference (as far as I'm concerned) is that the scythe ninja is more pointed towards passive while the tuniq tower is active.

from where the cards :confused: :p

and finally about the ocing, still can't get past 2700mhz. because temps dropped it will run on 2760 or a bit higher but prime95 seems to freek out at anything higher than 2700mhz :(
after fan turn around temps are:
idle @ 36C
load @ ~58C (used to be from 58C and higher now it's more like high 57C)

[PimpMySystem]

trynother stress program i know they posted another one somewhere if u use the search engine you might find it :D really thats worth the try. And i play TCG games (ruil kaart spellen) alot, its my second hobby :D

[(----____JEFF____----)]

I'm trying S&M now it really toasts your cpu :D prime95 is cool compared to that :p

[PimpMySystem]

well its for the well being if ur pc your toasting it :D (hmmmmm.. toast)
keep trying diffrent ones but watch out not to take more then it can. Besides what temps and speed is it that you can do not the same is it ???

[(----____JEFF____----)]

well the temps raised to over 60C when the fan was pointing the wrong way, that was after I posted those temps.
I'm going to the rally in germany now so I'll smel ya after the weekend :D

you might already smell me, my feet are about the worse of my age :D in looks and smell that is.

:D

Anyway I'm now stressing @ 2692Mhz with 1.65V, 2700Mhz errors after about 1,5 hour. I don't want to go 1.7V because temps get a bit to close to 70C. prime95 gets the cpu up to ~60C with current oc.
There are still some things I can do to lower temps even more (AS5, lapping the HSF, turning fans to full blast) but for now I'm statisfied.

[PimpMySystem]

thats good start idd go for it when you feel like it ;) i think its quite good for air cooling
