I never do but idk.

I wanna water cool but I just can't justify the price. I'm HOPING to upgrade from the 660ti soon so I may do water cooling for a summer project. I have too much tied up in modding/painting my case and sleeving right now anyways.

Yea that is the define mini.

You are not going back to WCing? I would imagine working inside any fractal case would be a pain.

They whisper quite and extremely well built.

Also I l've been eyeing a 7950 gigabyte on eBay. Was going to pick it up for 250 but lost at the last minute to a 260 bet. I was going to put it in Cfx with my other 7950.

Eta: you have me looking at those now since posting that reddit link. Lol

I wouldn't buy one of those used for more than $240. A brand new one is $299and you get 2 free games that you could easily sell for $60.

I'm not water cooling. Juat going with the h220, but no one is looking to buy water cooling equipment on reddit or toms

On shite srry.

Let me start over.

When purchasing a new SSD you should update the BIOS off the manufacturer's site.

This insures you get the best speeds by having the most optimal drivers. This isn't always the case but was when purchasing my Vertex 4.

In your case, they is your first build and didn't have a rig to use for formatting. They make adapters for laptops but feel like they are way too slow for use.

Just ignore it and remember moving forward.

You still have your 7970 block?

What do you still have? What type of fittings?

Eta:

Blue I have 2 Corsair AF140s quiet editions I won in a contest. If you could use them on the pull side, I'll ship them to you for free.

I have no use now and te foreseen future for 140mm fans.

I have everything except the 7970 block.

I basically have a switch 810 with pre installed loop and cpu block with 6 scythe fans. I'm using 1/2" ID 3/4 OD.

I'm going to use my gentle typhoons in my new case, so I won't have any room for the AP140s. Thanks for the offer though

I've also decided I'm either going with the arc midi or arc mini, most likely the midi since its only an inch or so bigger than the midi

Coyote I might could use those 140s if you think they are quieter that the cooler master led 140s I have now. I'm getting more and more noise conscious as I go along. I tend to want to run the lowest speed on my fan controller nowadays.

We can do that. I think I'm at about 22k graphics score on 3DMark11 basic settings. Like 17k overall but I think I can push a little more.
