need more common questions guys
Jibjo said:I'm definitely a noob and here are some common question topics that we have no (un-Searched for) answer to:
1.Resevoirs: Y or N, Home-made or Commercial, what about Bay-res (they are cool to look at, but...), can you make one that doesn't restrict flow?
2.Budget system: cheapest stuff to get, period.
3.Where to buy stuff, specifically, and how much it costs.
4.Cases:it can't possibly fit in mine, can it?... There's a HDD cage where the radiator's supposed to be!... what caseshould for a new sys?...Budget?... Best? .. Do I have to cut fan holes in it?
5.Fans: what's the best 120mm fan?... this leads to: dBA vs CFMs and believe me, it's hard to pick the right fans out of what's out there available, esp. when advertised specs are B.S.
6.How much will WC lower my temps? How much higher FSB can I expect versus HSF?
I'll try to think of more.
