    And for about $30 more you can get the 'Tracer' version of this memory as well....if blinky lights are to your fashion. Ballistix Tracer

    DEAD: All 4 Bond DVD sets--$125 at Amazon.

    I jumped on it. I've been watching these on cable. They are great classics, and this is a steal for the entire series. Plus if you want, you can get Casion Royale for $16 with it.

    Thermalright Ultra 120 review!

    I have mine in a tower case and it works just fine. 24C temps at idle when at stock configurations. 34C at 3Ghz fully loaded.

    I recently got the Ultra-120 and am very impressed by it. I definitely will buy from these guys again.

    installed my ultra 120..don't know if its working good

    I apply my compound with a razor blade and get a nice thin layer over the entire chip. It's always worked great. My stock temps were around 24C at stock speeds with this cooler.

    Tuniq 120, Asus Striker and Antec 900

    I have an Abit IN9 with a ThermalRight Ultra-120 in the Antec 900 case. My HS barely fits correctly.

    Anyone have experience with the SilenX Ixtrema Pro 120mm case fans?

    I'm using one of their 120mm 38mm width ~90CFM fans. They are very quiet. Per their box the readings are taken in a soundproof room ad a distance of 1m. So I suppose in that setting it would hold true. Nevertheless, I am pleased with how quiet their fans are so far. I'm thinking of...

    Best LGA775 Air Cooler

    I just recently bought the ThermalRight Ultra-120 and love it. It is HUGE. With the right fan this thing cools great. I'm currently using a SilenX 120mm ~80CFM fan. It is their wider body fan. Quiet and blows a lot of air.

    Antec or Thermaltake?

    To Fix the doors here is what I did: Seperate the hinges and put a few pieces of electrical tape on the spindle part of the hinge. Then reconnect and this should make the doors less flimsy and vibrate less. It also makes them stop flopping open and closed so easily. If I remember when I...

    Antec or Thermaltake?

    I have the Thermaktake case as my 'server' case. Very spacious. They have a small fan on the top of the case that seems rather useless as they have it blowing through a grid with widely spaced tiny holes. A redesign there would probably help even more with cooling. It has built in...

    Stable 680i ??

    I think it is a supply and demand thing. They are out there for a price...and vendors are getting them in...they just sell out right away. I'm shopping for one for a few more days and then if I can't find one (Striker Extreme) then I'm going to get the ABIT board.

    Antec 900 vs P180

    I just got the 900 off of the CompUSA Deal. It was sitting next to a P180, and the P180 was just to big for my tastes. It looked like a nice case though if you like larger cases. I'm still waiting for all of my other computer parts to show up for my build, so I can't say anything about its...
