Do you have a PSU tester? Wish I had one, makes it easy if you miss a connection.


Nope I don't... I think I have a tiny screwdriver power tester from my car tool kit, so I may try that out

Do yall like negative or positive pressure in your cases? Right now I have 4 total 140mm fans moving 60cfm each. Two at the front of my case for intake, one output right behind my noctua, and one exhausting up directly over the cpu. I had bought one extra 120mm that I was gonna use for bottom intake but my psu is just a little too big to fit it. Only place left to put it is exhaust at the top closer to the 5.25 bays. I get cpu temps of 35 playing borderlands 2 for an hour at highest settings with my fan controller at low. Have not OC yet.

Would you use the 120 as described above, exchange the 120 for a 140 to be used as described above, or leave it out? I don't really know if a fan in that position will give me much more performance. I guess it might give me a little more airflow over the dimms.
