Ok well i know what case i want, but i am still debating on the fans i would like.

I am thinking about these Yates for the 120mm fans.
The Yate Loons are excellent fans for the price and they are very quiet at lower RPMs. I would recommend some sort of fan controller to go with them.
And for 80mm's, you all tell me.
I'm not very familiar with the 80's, but used an Antec tri-cool from BB that was very quiet for a clear fan. If you are looking for quiet fans, I'd recommend you hop over to SilentPC Review.

Also are there any UV green CCFL's out there?

Uhhhhhh......No.😕


BTW, just out of curiosity, which model are ya looking at?

I linked it there. I think i am just going to go yates all around, 120mm yates, as well as 3 80mm yates.

uhhhhhh.... just get whatever is cheap and quiet. You honestly wont need it if your phasing.


As for the Radiator, thermochill PA120.3 + yates is the best combo. Cathar used yates as reference when building it.

Also Cather openly stated this incase anyone wants to challange me. Its posted on XS Forums, on a yate thread.


Just get yates, i need about 10 of them for myset. :X



PS. You are aware your case wont arive til 2-3 months. Also i highly doubt nol can finish your job in less then 2.


Also id avoid the one with 80mm on top. You can order them to drill out bigger holes in the rear, but that might take up another week in delay.


All in all, my system will be up next week. Theres a build log of it over at XS Forums. I'll migrate it over here once im done over there.
 
Yea ill just get yates. I have heard allot of good about yates and PA120.3's. So thats what i guess Ill put on mine. And yes i will be running phase, but then again i still need good airflow. I think those medium speed yates will do the trick. Man i cant wait, i sent out the first payment for phase, now i have to wait a month before i get it. Then 2 more months before i have the money for the whole upgrade. Its going to take forever.

Heh!

Now you guys are gettin' the idea! 😀

Mountain Mods is just a whole different mindset, yes?
 
Oh hell yea. Mines going to be a beast from hell. PA120.3 for the video cards, NB, and maybe vregs and ram -- yes yes don't need to be cooled but my ram gets DAMN hot when my e6300 is at 3.2, i could only imagine what they are going to be with a quad over 4ghz. Then a custom phase unit that will be able to cool my loaded beast at -30. My only real concern is the 5.25" bays, out of all the cases that i have seen there are only two covers. Do i have to buy more? I'm going to have maybe one bay device. And two of the covers are going to have the temp gauge for the phase unit, and the other one is for the power switch....that means i will have to buy something extra.... Because i don't really want to buy more covers at $15 a pop then later fill the holes.
 
The Mountain Mods web site is kinda sorta hard to navigate IMHO.

When I'm looking for hard to find stuff, like drive bay covers, and such, I just browse their whole catalog!

Took me a while to figure out how to do this... 😀

Here's the Link.

Happy Hunting!

I don't think i want all empty bays, one of them and something else later.
Bah! You're gettin' colder now! 😀

Put a 5" monitor in there, or something -- use your imagination, Dude!

Drive bays, on MM cases, aren't actually drive bays...
 
CASE AND FANS ORDERED!!! Total so far on phase and case that i have payed is. $770!

Man this is going to be killer. Still owe $420 on phase.
 
I used to have a MM U2-UFO Opti 1203 and it was a rockin case, I got rid of it for my new custom one im buildin from scratch for my phase and what not. The reason I like my MM case was the room, and the ease of moddin it. I was really close to puttin a 19" LCD in the top panel, with lifts that extended the panel vertically so you could watch teh 19, but I held off and will be putting it in my new case, along with some other sweet mods.
 
I like the size of their Twice7 units (14"x14"x14") but I'd prefer it to have the mobo lie horizontal. MM has a horizontal type coming out thats supposed to be in size somewhere between the BobSlay and the Twice7. Havent heard when that is though.
