Hi
yep, 3 sharkoons 120mm 2000rpm. The noise level is higher than expected but temps are very low!

I thought the NZXT Lexa was an alright case, I'm using the Blackline Red version as my current case. plenty of cooling and enough space inside without being Hooge!

Repton · 08-02-2008, 12:17 PM

The NZXT Lexa is great case, I've had no problems with it at all. I felt it was time for a change, from all those bright blue shining lights to something a bit more subdued.....I must be getting old

Anyway, I will have plenty of space for water cooling later

Ooo-err!

The case looks like the brick from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Very nice.

The Lian-Li make beautiful cases - I'm not sure whether I could part with £200 for a case though. It does look very lovely though!

Don't get me wrong - I'd love to own one myself if I could afford one. How many HDD's can you fit in there?

Repton · 10-02-2008, 7:14 PM

you could fit up to 12 HDD in the racks provided but then there are also 7 5.25" bays which could also house more HDD with the right attachments.
I would imagine the noise of all those drives to be something!

Anyway, My 2nd PC, not for gaming just web browsing and Office work, Awaiting for passive graphics card and RAM.
SPEC: E6850, Thermaltake TR2 450W PSU, AKASA ZEN & PAXMATE, Zalman CNPS9700, GIGABYTE P31

completed!

Repton · 11-12-2008, 5:45 PM

Ordered a 4870 yesterday for only £190, free delivery option selected. Not urgent, can wait 2-3 working days. Was amazed that it was received today

Will use Novatech again

Here's my new card against my old card 2900xt 1GB @£285

and installed in my Lian Li case.

cheers, it is definitely quieter. Once I've seen the cooler, which was different to the one on its website, I had to cancel my order for the Akasa Vortexx Neo cooler.

Very nice, to both cases in fact. Am very jealous! Is that a noctua cooler? Can't really tell properly, but it looks like on of their fans on your processor cooler

thanks.

Yes, a Noctua NF-P12 on a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme CPU Cooler

Just updated my sound card, had to sacrifice the XFire PCI-E socket for that as the ASUS XONAR too long to fit in the PCI-E x 1 socket by hitting the RAMs.
Improvement to sound is staggering.
