    Swiftech Green UV Reactive HydrX Coolant

    i havent yet considered it. I'm gonna ask my friend about it and see what he sez. But what other people said about distilled water and biocide sounds reasonable to me.

    Swiftech Green UV Reactive HydrX Coolant

    np, buddy. i'm personally doing an orange/black mod this time so i went for orange UV. I was planning to get the H20 220 Compact from newegg as they have the lowest price ($140) i've found so far but they just went out of stock. This is prolly a temporariry thing as that kit goes out of stock...

    Swiftech Green UV Reactive HydrX Coolant

    yes, you can use other types of tubing and coolant. I'm about to order the same kit myself and i already purchased some Feser UV tubing. But Tygon really makes the best tubing, this is the one you want for this kit: http://www.performance-pcs.com..._414&products_id=22667 Also, i want to...

    Whats the difference between these 2 Stackers 830 evo?

    thats what i suspected. i guess newegg has both KKN2 and KKN3 in stock yet they don't say that in the descriptions. Thats why people are getting 2 different versions according to reviews. I guess i'm gonna pick this case up elsewhere so i can get the newer version for sure.

    Whats the difference between these 2 Stackers 830 evo?

    Apparantly there are 2 different model numbers for the 830 evo: RC-830-KKN3-GP at Newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16811119122 and RC-830-KKN2-GP at ZipZoomFly: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/...e=10005351&prodlist=cj The latter version is $44 cheaper yet looks...

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    There is a bit of misunderstanding regarding the mobo, this not for my Gigabyte board. As i mentioned above, this is for Abit IP35 Pro in a system i'm working on for someone. That board has 1 CPU FAN, 1 SYS FAN and 4 AUX FAN. I haven't tried it withoout the LED set of wires (the other 3 pin...

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    thnx Zepper. This has nothing to do with a CPU fan though, i have a Zalman 9500 plugged in into the CPU FAN header and its working fine. This is problem only affects the SYS FAN header when i plug in the fan's 3 pin in there without the molex. I took some pics of the fan but i dont know how...

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    yea, i bought these 2 fans a while ago and just reused them for a build i'm doing for someone, i know they are not the best quality but was just trying to save the guy some cash. If you read my post, i didnt plug in the 3 pin and the 4 pin molex together. It was done separately. I'm trying...

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    I dont really see whats so funny about this. Everything was plugged in properly, i actually triple checked. The thought about the fan not getting enough power has also crossed my mind. I says that the fan consumes only 0.32W but i assume the mobo should have plenty of power: I have the 24...

    Can a case fan be run without the 4 pin molex plugged into a PSU?

    I know, this sounds like a stupid question but it is something that i need to know. To make a long story short, i plugged in AC Ryan 120mm Blackfire fan's 3 pin connector into the mobo's SYS FAN header and unplugged the molex. Before it was running plugged into the 4 pin molex via an adaptor...

    Question about replacing mobo's stock chipset cooling

    So you are saying that i can do it either way: the screws if they fit and pushpins if the screws dont fit? Do i understand u correctly?
