Fantastic, My Brand new Koolance case will ship on Monday!!!!!

I previously ordered the old version of the case, due to some problems Koolance had shipping the order (a dispute with their carrier due to a significant proportion of damages whilst in transport).

They mailed about the problem and also asked me if I would like to wait for the 'Overclockers' version of case :-) I of course said yes!

They are sending me the new version at a hefty discount - BRILLIANT service :-)

I can't wait to benchtest this puppy - It's got enough Cooling power to put the old Koolance case to shame - About 4-5 times as powerful - that means Peltier installation for me at some point :-)

It's got three loudness settings as well as the autocooling which turns fans on when required - yes it still very quiet :-)

Expect the website to have an update very soon........
As soon as the case arrives I shall post the results with my 1.2 AXIA (already at 1.4 :-)
If anyone has some good tips on peltiers I would reallly appreciate some help!

p.s. I really don't work for them, it's just the service they have given me has been top notch!

I love how we know longer call the adjustment settings on fans "speed settings". We now call them "loudness settings".

You guys kill me.....:)

"Oh, it's cruising along at 53.8 decibels."

"Hah! Mine is running at a 57.3."

"Oh yeah...well... SHUT UP!"

as long as there are louder fans there are louder speakers.

Mine just hums along. And it'll probably hum more quietly when I switch to watercooling. :)

heh the fans I use generate almost no noise the floor fan that compleate the set makes noise well more of a throbbing hum but i turn it down to low at night sounds peacefull like a nice winter breeze.

My comp's my TV, Video, DVD Player, Games Machine all in one.

How many TV's and DVD player have a massive fan drowning out the sounds - I want to hear my optically connected Sony DTS 5.1 system as it should be heard!

There are indeed three settings for the maximum speed of the fans in my new case (they obviously relate to sound) but it's also got temp controlled fans which go to the maximum speed which you set from the choice of three.

So yeah I'm a big fan of Quiet computing, My Fop32i screams + the 80mm fan I've got blowing through the fins does not make for a quiet life + I can't actually close my current case because the power supply is mounted vertically (great for when a had a slot, bollox for a socket :-(



So poo poo! My comp's going to be quieter than yours and water cooled too......................nah nahh nah nahhhhh nah :-)
