lolz

[VooDoo-]

holy shit ... lmfao, yea .. those heatsinks do alot more than you think they do ..

i rember when i was putting a new heatsink on my CPU, it was being gay, and i took it off forgettinfg to turn off my computer ........ it overheated and autoshutted down like instantly

[Steve]

i left a customer's site once and realised i'd not clipped teh heatsink on :/
wet back and attached it properly tho. chances are it would ahve been ok, but better safe than sorry

thing not for the feint of hearted is installing water cooling

I was a wreck installing my first system, which happend to be on an SLI system and the CPU, but its insane how good and quiet they are

[Steve]

am considering it, maybe when i get some money saved, cause i like to o/c

how portable is a water cooled pc? i mean ok to ship around the place to LAN etc? or does it depend more on the systems used and size of csse etc?

dunno if your familiar with thermaltake products, but i just bought a Big Typhoon hsf last week. took about 20 degrees C off my temps! nice pice of kit

[Systemkaos]

We are based in london and ship the stuff in the case built and everything all over the place, just some padding between the box and case, but if you make sure all the clips are on very very very tight and dont fill the resivoir up to much and every thing is secure then i shouldnt see a prob at all, just dont toss it about. Trust me m8 the OC abilities are insane with water cooling and it runs so quiet, a PS2 is louder

And speaking of lans, you go to any gameon or iSeries lans?

[Steve]

lol tbh i thought a PS2 was pretty noisy

cheers for info if it's ok with couriers then i'll be ok carrying it myself. man those couriers use packages like footballs.

not big into lans to big events like that, more of a clan thing. problem is i dont really play cs/quake/ut which seems to be the main games at bigger events :/

will check 'em out thos, cheers

[Systemkaos]

LOL yes i know we had a rep from the main courier come in and check out exactly what there shipping and he was like oh wow, i will make sure then. THe thing that shocked me was, the drivers have a lil area they drive around in and if they parcel goes out that area they put it on a bus and its up the bus driver to watch over it =/ untill it gets to the next courier

Yea, i was supposed to go to that butlins lan £99 per person, and i was going free, getting free upgrades, and other stuff, but the damn people backed out just waiting till feb for our next lan

[Steve]

pmsl on the fing bus!? lmao

but london... i can believe. we have some engineers that work in london, damn £8 / hour parking :/ not funny


read about the butlins lan from here > http://www.1moregame.co.uk/ / http://www.lan-register.co.uk/ think the guy from there is a sponsor

looks like a big event. too bad u didng get ur free stuff m8

[Steve]

ah i misunderstood, i just read the lan was posponed, i thought u meant the ppl u were getting upgrades from
