    Any case modification needed for the Corsair H50/H70 to work?

    I have the H50 and it replaces the rear exhaust fan. Only thing I would be concerned is the dimensions of your case. Since the radiator plus the fan combine is a good 2.5-3 inch or so. Can't remember. Other then that the install is pretty straight forward.

    8GB (2x4GB) G.SKILL Ripjaws 240-Pin DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) 1.5V Desktop Memory $90

    i installed mine but had to drop my overclock. Was expected because my old rams are 1600 vs 1333 was previously on 3.5Ghz now down to 3.0Ghz. Otherwise they run fine so far. Needed the increase in ram for photoshop and video editing.

    ** Official Star Craft 2 Multiplayer Thread **

    i played a 2v2 ranked where both allies probe/scv rushed me. and still failed. i was rofling so bad. i think the reason for their fail is they didnt gather 10 before hitting me. they took the initial 5 workers so = 10 for both of them and came and hit me. by that time i had 11 scvs and just out...

    ** Official Star Craft 2 Multiplayer Thread **

    ouch... what race do you play? when they come, make sure you group all your probes to attack back. i think maybe you should play the single player challenges some more to get more practice on your micro. or play with a friend on custom map and have him worker rush you and you try to defend it.

    ** Official Star Craft 2 Multiplayer Thread **

    i can tell u i won scv rush 4-1 out of the times i tried it and placed platinum. I did this when I was bored. Its also a planned strat. I picked only 1v1 maps. certain maps with short distance. always pick terran since supply caps at 11. I would build 10 scv and head out. leave the 11 scv to...

    ** Official Star Craft 2 Multiplayer Thread **

    i say the 15 turret is your problem. hehe use the money into more marines or vikings. also learn to scout or scan early in the game to see what the enemy is trying to build. if they have one gateway, cyber, and assimilator out. you know they might be going VRs or DTs. most of the...

    i bought two on release but only installed one so far in my laptop. first impression is it does boot fast like a ssd, but it doesn't shut off like a ssd though.it is loud in my little acer 1401 notebook. I could run them in raid in my desktop but i'm to lazy to benchmark since i have an ssd...

    Brag if you got into the SC2 beta

    i havnt tried this strategy but wouldnt have enough starport to support it. what about thors marines in the front. and fly the vikings from the back/side and flank him? i bet that might work. or even seperate the marines and thors to another group. just saying.. never tried .
