QUOTE(hahn87 @ Oct 25 2009, 01:23 AM) i like big big stuff.. had my eyes on lianli only if i can afford it.. the one i eyeing cost rm2000 =.=. cheaper alternate dream case... silverstone raven RV02.... at least i don't have a nightmare for cable management on my cosmos s... other than that... ATCS.... to me cosmos sux >< i toyed with my friend's cosmos S. cable management NIGHTMARE.... @nkarul85 HAF932 = Full Tower HAF922 = Mid Tower CM scout = Mid tower = to me a waste of money as the performance and the fan install option is less than CM690. UNLESS it's for lanparty with light weight components. rather save some money and get CM690 or gladiator600 or add some extra cash get HAF922 if i wan extra space in the casing. you can always buy a lanparty strap on thinggy for ur casing. can fit ur mouse and keyboard along and carry the whole thing like backpack. sunbeam make those. i am sure most of u guys know about this. if i am build a pc for lanparty. i'll choose a smaller and light casing and fit only 1 hdd and just a decent graphic card that runs all the games that we going to plan on LANparty. if u take the scout and think that the handle would easy ur transfering but u have ginormous ammount of stuff in the casing and make it heavy like a bunch of hdd and a big ass cooler + big ass graphic card. it beat the purpose of having that handle really as at that point it would be easier and more comfortable to carry the whole case the hugging method. if u wan to fit big big hardware inside. then go big with the casing. more airflow. better temperature. if u wanna carry the case around most of the time get smaller casing and also lesser hardware inside. i had a CM690 and then i swap to HAF932 with almost the same amount of hardware inside. honestly.. they feel the same to me when i am trying to bring my PC back to home town on semester break. both oso damn heavy. both oso a pain in the ass to carry. feel no difference really. just that now i have better temperature =D and i am satisfy with it |

QUOTE(hahn87 @ Oct 25 2009, 03:28 AM) @kInOzAwA sure can but not now. I need to install the appropriate MDPC-X sleeve at first. Anyway before i going to WC stuff, the air cooling also looks great since there's not much cable alike available around, it just neat if you got an idea on how to make a good cable management... as always all the things messy should be hide at the back of the case... do u mind taking more photo of ur internals with lights on including the back of the mobo if you can. i need reference...... possible make it a high res photo hide with spoiler. note that my friend's system is air cooled. dun have much of the fancy water cooling stuff to make it look nice. i appreciate it if u can help me out =D actually i don't have a good camera to take a good quality high resolution photo. I just using a camera phone instead with no flash available... It will takes a while for me to post a good quality photo...

QUOTE(hahn87 @ Oct 25 2009, 02:28 PM) hahha it's ok la. as long as can see can refer ok already to make it as neat as what as your expected actually it's depends on the mobo design itself... the location between the sata and another ports surely affected the overall looks... i'm sure about this. Added on October 26, 2009, 2:18 am@kInOzAwA not as neat as i expected. and also u have UV sleeving for cosmetic and u have ur reservoir and pump to help u hide some or u cables. good thing u sleeved the 24 pin extention. i had several ideas but require longer sata cables. btw i love ur ram LOL. but don't worry if you have a good sleeve it will surely looks good on this case.. MDPC-X will surely look better to hide any bulky looks of the cable... Only the cons that it actually need another extension for the atx cable to go thru the mobo atx... if this is not a problem surely look nice already... another nice idea... remove the molex on any unneeded cable to show off, and slip it over the small hole located behind the drive bay... |

QUOTE(hahn87 @ Oct 26 2009, 06:18 PM) @kInOzAwA actually, non-modular psu is better than the modular if the rigs have many device to be used. i did something like in the 2nd and 3rd rig u post note that my friend is using a cooler master real power pro 1000w non mudular PSU and 5sata hdd and 2 sata dvdrw. so those sata cables are the main issue. need longer sata cables!!! just to hide them off properly the 1st rig pic with the water cooling system got a lot of WC gadget to help hide things off and blend in nicely. @kerryking then HAF922 should be less prone to dust. just for those who chose the mesh panel must somehow filter it and also the bottom intake. by the way how was the storm force fan air flow compare to the original 230mm fan? curious to know. wanna change my front 230fan. current colour scheme a bit weird. red with white and a touch of orange....... nobody else in the forum with haf932 with 4 12cm powerful fan at the side? LOL. extreme dust collector~~~ i dun think i would ever make filter for them. wait till i finish my traning and move to a place with lesser dust >< when i get back to penang i will go over his place and redo the cables and see how xD i will try to find the pictures suitable for the one you stated with plenty of sata & other items. anyway you can buy other alternative like long sata cables or its extension to suit the requirement. |

QUOTE(west5405 @ Oct 27 2009, 11:38 AM) actually you have wrong perception over the UV CCFL.. You see UV light isn't UV light. It is a band of light frequency in the Ultra Violet range. There are several types of UV light. The UV in black lights is called UVA. UVA is a form that is not harmful to human skin (well no more harmful than a computer monitor). UVB on the other hand, is extremely harmful to human skin.UVA is the best type for exciting "phosphors", the particles that convert energy into a form of visible light. UV photons hit the phosphorus and are converted, creating something we can see, so they use phosphorus paint and inks to create UV reactive substances. Interestingly, the first UV reactive painting was done using human piss, which does a great job. So if you want a really good glow from your watercooling system, fill it up with your own urine and watch it go. Guaranteed less algae too. So, no. Don't worry. Something else is going to kill you, not the UV CCFLs. ahhahahahahah |
