HI, I have the P180 as well. It is a GREAT case. It all depends on what you want. I wouldnt even put the Thermaltake and the Antec cases in the same category. Price alone sets them apart. Thermaltake is more like all in one, easy install case and alot of it is looks. Antec P180 is for...

kruull, I have the P180 as well. Great case. I dont know about the PSU you mentioned but I have an Antec TruePower 2.0 430W in mine. Its only a AMD XP 1800+ with not much else. Used for HT mainly. You are right to be worried about the cable length since its an upsidedown design. The Antec...

oops thought this thread was dead. Havent checked back for a while. UPDATE: Got meself some AS5 and did what gamingfreak suggested: take off HSF reapply goo (AS5). Also got a VF-700 for the 7800GT. At the moment absolutely NO diference in GPU temp or CPU temp. They are both running just as...

BonzaiDuck, do you have any suggestions for me? As you can see the difference between my idle and load is more than 16c!!! Its got me worries and obviously affecting my OC'ing. I am downunder in Oz so it gonna get pretty hot very soon! Can alway go for a bigger and meaner cooler or water...

Thanks to everyone that replied. Just figured out what IHS is :) Should i remove the IHS? Would that give me better cooling? Also incase I didnt mention already, the mobo temo is reported to be 39c under load. is this okay? Finally, I jut discovered that the idle temp is around 39 - 41...

its normal to show the variations but is the variations normal?

thanks again Gamingphreak ;), Why close off the top opening? Hot air are collected at the top right? What's the take on SilenX fans? Lots of talk around these as fakes and crappy but there is nothing bad interms of reviews... I will change the fans back to stock (i think they are loud...

Thanx Gamingphreek, I have 3 case fans, 1x120mm intake at front (SilenX LED), 2x 80mm exhaust top (stock) and back (SilenX LED). Also have a blower that came with the case - Lian-Li PC65B Plus. This extends over all the PIC slots aimed at the gfx card. could be in or out take, didnt check...

Thanx for the reply. I just used the stuff that came with the XP-90. Not sure if i used enough...think so. I just reversed the direction of the fan so now its exhausting the heat from the heatsink rather than injecting cool air. but no diff in temp... The vcore limit was fixed by updating...

Hi guys, New to the community. Just 3 quick questions - 1. my vcore is set to 1.425 in bios but in CPU-Z it shows up as 1.456. This value changes every few seconds when the cpu is idle by +/- 0.05 volts. When under 100% load it stays on 1.456. What's going on here? Normal? I have a...
