Removed my old HSF: [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0618.jpg[/IMG] New one installed: [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0619.jpg[/IMG] All done (sorry about the wires, it's hideous...I know...): [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0620.jpg[/IMG] New CCFL + Fan grills: (lights off) [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0621.jpg[/IMG] (lights on) [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0622.jpg[/IMG] (CCFL off, lights on) [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0624.jpg[/IMG] New keyboard: [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0625.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0626.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a283/crazed_rider/HPIM0627.jpg[/IMG] I forgot to take pictures of the Raptor, but I'll have my whole computer torn apart soon...I'm re-doing all the wiring, completely. Well, hope you like. I sure do. :D BTW: Lowered my video card temps from 47*C idle, to 37*C idle. I have yet to test it in BF2. Posted by: Preacher Nice work and marry X-Mas! Posted by: CrazeD Thanks..Merry Christmas to you too. :) Posted by: lancec2c30 Ya I will start the oc on my 7900gs, might consider a zalman for it. Posted by: RepuLse haha sweet cooler, i might get one for my 7300gt, it sounds like a vacuum -.- Posted by: CrazeD Dude, this cooler is DEAD quiet! I installed the fan controller that came with it onto the back of my case, so I could adjust the RPM. Looking at my monitoring software, all the way down is like 1200 - 1400 RPM, and max is about 2500RPM. I can't even hear a difference, turning the knob between the two. It's DEAD quiet I tell you. :) It's a pinch to install, too. I've always recommended it, but after actually owning one, GET IT!!! Get the one with LED's though...:D EDIT: By the way, I'm going to completely re-do my wiring tomorrow. I will update this thread with new and better pics. :) Posted by: reggie_da_man I have the vf-700 and it's dead quiet too, I love it!! Posted by: RGELLIS They are some nice mods! I can see why you are ripping apart your computer to redo Wire Management :p. Overclock that GTO, they overclock to **** when cooled well! Good Luck Ruan Posted by: CrazeD Nah, the R430 core doesn't over clock very well - plus I don't really need it. I play BF2on 1280x1024, everything on high, AA off, and still get 50 - 60FPS...so that's fine for me. vBulletin Copyright ©2000 - 2003, Jelsoft Enterprises Limited.
