Acid Rain- I dunno, I think they are quite a lot better, but admittedly, the bottom still needs some work. I like the black stiff foam idea for the bottom, although I was thinking of using black cardboard or something similar. The two inverters can support it and it should come up to just the bottom of the fan in front, hopefully.
Jayhawk- Thanks for the link, I'm putting together a big order for one of the mod shops around the net,
Sam- I tend to keep the ambient in here at like 15-16C ( according to the cheap-o thermometer ) at night, although there's a +- of 2C. Core temp is reading 21 now, the thermometer 21.8, so that's pretty useless. If we take the thermometer to read +2, instead of right on, I'd think 19C ambient and 21C idle. You think? How/can you change the Tjmax on coretemp? I remember doing it once, but I don't remember how.
Gunlance- Thanks, it's a wonderful case isn't it? I freaking love it, so big, so much room, lots of places to put things, etc, etc.
Well, the nicest part of the project has arrived:
Gonna have to add some G80 Ramsinks onto my big order, along with that 8 pin extension. The CCFLs need to get put into place, and the black layer layed down on the bottom. I'm lucky that the new GTS only needs one 6-pin, thank God. I'd hate to have to cut more of my little zip ties, or my finger again. Yeah, sliced my middle finger on my right hand up with my utility knife. That was not fun, but I didn't get any blood on my carpet. No picture, I put a bandaid on it first wierdos...
Also, a question for all you DC circuit experts. The fans have a black wire and a red wire, while the 2 pin extensions have a yellow and a black. When I tie together the two blacks and the yellow/red, nothing happens. Should I switch it around? Have I lost a fan completely? What have I done wrong here?
Thanks again all,
Drew
