Nice rig LightingSpeed11

Thanks mate glad you like it ^^

@LightingSpeed11:

Would it not have been better to mount your CPU cooler so that the fan on the top of the heatsinks is angled towards the back of the case, and the exhaust fans? It looks to me like the CPU fan is angled towards the from of the case, therefore blowing hot air forwards, I can't tell frmo the pics, but it doesn't look like you've got a side fan either.

LightingSpeed11 may i ask why you went with such low end cards?

one 8800GT sevearly outperforms both of those in SLI.

you should have got at least an 8600GT,whats the best framerates you get?

maybe it suucks air in and pushes the hot air through the bottom?

I'm in a very blunt mood, so I'll put this as bluntly as possible.


If that cooler DOES do that, it's the first one that I've seen. The design of the fan indicates that it acts just like a regular heatsink fan by sucking warm/hot air away from the heatsinks.

It looks like that but CPU quite cool 30~32c with CE1 and Speedstep disabled.


I know mate my bad, I will be installing 8800 after, I wanted to get 8800 but didn't found in the shops there all were out of stock thought using these might be a good idea but its not. thanks for the advice mate



I thought about it aswell. since I got open side case I took this CPU cooler so it gets cold air from outside. I put my hands and the air that goes behind it goes to the Mobo heat sink is cold! which means its even helping not makeing things worse

GIGABYTE been doing these models, there even a better model I might install after. from the CPU cooler box " MOSEFT Cooling Solution: To extend the life time of the motherboard, Volar will enhance the heat conduction of the surrounding components"

And by the way the case side can be changed, and im using this one at this moment
