Not that quiet though. The fan on my GC isn't running smoothly and causes grinding sounds.

If that's the case then u have to get a third party cooler for replacement of stock cooler .. hahah

Anyway used to use 8800GTS and u could set the fan speed not to go up to maximun during gaming ...

It's not neccessary to have it spin to the max ....
*
It's spinning only at 60%. Not much of intention of getting 3rd party cooler as the temps now are great idling around 50 degrees in air-cond room.

Then what sort of sound that u refers to ??

It's the stock fan on the GC. Even running at 60% there is the grinding sound.

hmmm ??? Is there a thin layer of plastic cover on the cooler surface ??

I had it remove half way previously as the blower fan some how suck it in during running time... it makes noise as the fan blade hit the plastic layer....
*
No there's no plastic cover...there never was since i bought it

OT: Does all 8800GTS comes with a plastic coer at the stock fan? Mine didn't. These days i'm confused and worried because i am afraid i bought a used GC, because the shop only quoted me 1 year warranthy from Galaxy meanwhile Galaxy says their GC comes with 2 years warranthy. And i can't find my serial number on my GC.

If the cables aren't long enough u could do extention ....

I have been doing for every case that used ,,, and it turns out good ..

How do i extent cables without cutting/soldering in the process(do not want to void warranthy)?

u dont extend the cables on the PSU itself....u make ur own from scratch... go to an elctronics spare parts shop like those in jalan pasar and buy the cables, male and female molex, and male and female molex pins.

EDIT: example of Doom's DIY extension cables can be seen HERE
*
ooo nice...

I actually have some plans already but now my PSU not very right and fear may need to RMA. After warranthy habis which my rig maybe use as secondary rig or sell alrdy i intend to mod my cables. Now i currently using 2 Sata and no molex cables. So i intend to remove all the Y-split for the sata power cable, extend it, and keep only 2 sata cables directly from the PSU so that it will be neater.

I thought the wires are long and able to play around with when comes to cable management ... . ... I almost gone for that PSU before ...

Anyway it would be good to be able to have the flexibility of extending the cables for better result...
*
It's long but in between the last connector on the cable and the PSU, there is 2 Y-split cables which looks untidy since i want to only use 2 of the end connectors.

RMA?? wat happened to ur PSU?

Nothing but sometimes there's a buzzing sound coming out of it and it gets loud. Since there is a silverstone service centre locally it wouldn't take a long time hopefully.

Sleeve the cables 1st. So that the cables will look less.

I've got a LL PC-7 too. And the cable seems to be hard for me to manage. The only possible way for me to manage nicely would be drilling holes to my case. But scared will ruin it cry.gif

basically the first 5.25" is the suitable place to hide the cables..

u can install ur optical drive at the 2nd place or below it..

if u wanna drill the holes, better think twice and have a perfect plan so that the case wont be ruined.. smile.gif

If i put there then my 24pin mb power cable very hard to route to the mb section.

If i were to buy a 24pin or molex connector will they come with the metal conductor in it?

I intend to make a few extension myself and if they don't come with the metal conductor inside i can't do it.

the closest that i know to subang would be in SS2 PJ... slightly more expensive than Jalan Pasar though...but saves u the hassle of going all the way there

Do you have the name of the shop and the address? The pin is like normal 24pin or do i have to mod them?

OT: Do they sell acrylic there too?

Thanks.

just go to SS2 and find a mcdonalds...its a few doors away from it...next to a hardware store. but that shop abit lansi though..

if u get the exact ones u dont need to mod la...just bring a sample so they know what u tokking about.

acrylic...dont think so.
