I don't know much about audio equipment, just wondering if what i'm looking at is worth taking up floor space or not. Haven't tested it yet, but I bought it from a friend, so I'm assuming it works. For $10, I bought an old Sears LXI series tower stereo setup. It's a multi-playing thing (has a...

I'm going to putting my first watercooling setup into a Fractal Define S with plans to overclock and liquid cool the cup and one or two graphics cards. The case supports 3x top 120/140 fans, 1x back 120/140 fan, 3x front 120/140 fans, and 1x bottom 120/140 fan. Has no optical drive bays and hard...

This will be my first time watercooling and I didn't trust my newbishness with picking out each part individually. I did a little bit of research and am thinking about getting one of these kits: http://www.xs-pc.com/watercooling-kits/raystorm-d5-photon-ax360-watercooling-kit I'm fairly...

I'm wanting to water cool the cpu and gpu in the most cost effective way without sacrificing performance or going overboard. I won't be overclocking right away, but i would like to in the future. As of right now, i was thinking of getting a Corsair H80i v2 for the cpu and then getting one of...

Would the 2 slower 250gb hdd's slow down the new SSD if they are all in a raid5? Is raid even necessary for normal computing? I'm thinking that using on of the drives for an external back up would suit my needs better. I already have a external enclosure for a 3.5 drive that i can use. And...

Asking the community gurus this question so i can save myself a lot of time and headache. I'm wondering would be the most logical way to set all of these drives up in my new system. I'm going to be getting a 250GB SSD to put my os on. I also will have a larger hdd for games and have several...

I have an old HP Pavilion dv7-1444us. The "c" key doesn't work half the time and the battery only lasts about a half hour. I'm wondering if there's any cool DIY ideas i can't think of or if i should just scrap it for parts and add them to the pile. Specs: laptop...

Was thinking about getting the Corsair Hydro H80i V2. Corsair's website has it rated as the best single slot radiator. The h75 is almost as good and runs a little cheaper.

I'm not going to be doing any serious overclocking, especially right away. Might as well save $50 and get one that fits in the middle slot. I'll see if the case's foam padding quiets the jet engines any before i switch them out haha.

Thanks everybody! That helps a lot

I am getting a fractal R4. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811352020 The case comes with a preinstalled 140mm fan on both the back and front. I'm going to be installing a liquid cooling kit, which will take the space of the back fan. So, should add an extra fan to the...
