    hahahahhahhhhahhahahahahahahhahahahhhh


    ax running windows


    defrag and shit. lol. fuck that shit.
    i wouldn't be hibernating a (basically) live system anyway....if i did it would be to swap space on a mech.

    No point in a -> SSHD

    As far as I'm aware all SSDs will be SATA3, and HDDs SATA2 is enough anyway.
    I have zero clue about (or interest really) in this stuff. the line items ays "1 HDD ADATA SP310 SATA3 mSATA128GB" at $116.00 plus GST.

    Raid performance would be shite when you have drives of varying performance etc.

    Yeh that's an SSD which fits into your motherboard, as opposed to the more common SSD which fits into a 2.5in slot (giggidy).

    Pretty sure front mount 120mm fans aren't there to cool the hard drives these days

    How much you want for all four? I still got 8 spare slots on my main comp and a few others that could use some extra storage too.

    Heh.

    This is my case:

    Case

    As you can see, there is a dedicated 120mm front fan behind the Duct, behind the HDD bay to keep my GPU cool (GPU if you are interested) and there is also a dedicated 120mm fan to keep my HDDs cool (and believe me, when the HDD by is full, they do get quite cozy)

    at some point I will get round to watercooling my CPU, Mobo and possibly my GPU (although I like the orange Toxic cooler - it looks smexy)

    Hmmm, perhaps this 'show us your pc build' should be a new thread. I won't start it yet cos I'm still waiting for PC parts to get anodised and lasered but you should. Your case looks kinda old and plebby by today's standards though

    The case is a bit old - but trust me, it is the greatest case to work on/in - so much room AND the motherboard tray pulls right out and the 6+ fans means it is quite and cool.

    I dunno, I'm not seeing much cable routing options, radiator options, sound deadening, fan filters, and is it even a positive pressure case? Is that open mesh top exhaust too? dusty...

    Not sure why you would want a pull out mobo tray either, should be plenty of room to work in the large style cases.

    The graphics card support seems like a nice touch, is that compatible with the newer stuff though or have they gone different sizes?

    Cabling routing - there is space behind the Mobo Tray - very easy to route cables (although to get a really tidy case, you will need long cables
    Has rad mounting options on the back (at some point will get round to watercooling)
    Sound deadening - will admit, it isn't as quiet as some cases, but this isn't an issue for me
    Fan filters - there is space, but I never bother with them - about once every 6 months to a year, I pull the fans out and clean them
    Positive pressure - definately
    the 2 exhaust fans on the top are the greatest thing since sliced bread for keeping your PC cool - had my old i7 running at 4.1 Ghz for a while....

    as for pulling the mobo tray - there are times when this is oh so usefull - you wouldn't think so, but its one of those things that you don't know how usefull it is till you try it.

    GPU sizing is still fairly standard - only the card length that isn't, but I have yet to find a card that won't fit comfortably in my case

    Are there intakes on the doors then? Seeing more exhaust than intake fans is all. The little rubber grommets are great for tidy cable routing, as is a large space behind the mobo. No top or front rads though? Sound and dust are my main two buying points, had a cm silencio but the top vent and front intake (though filtered) still allowed more dust in than I would like. I7 in that ran at 4.4on air, current one is doing a moist 4.6 no worries.

    I remain unconvinced, to pull it don't you have to disconnect expansion cards and cables?

    Yeh that's what I mean, how does the gpu support system deal with the varying length?
