    How do I adjust my PWM fans?

    My board has 4 PWM connections so I purchased 4 PWM fans. I plugged one in and it's running at max rpm (1500). How can I can I adjust the fan speed? Is through the bios the only way to do it or is there a program that I can use? I tried going through the bios, but I get lost & confused even with...

    Shipping 680 from USA to AUS

    Yep, USPS Express International Service. Just have her go into a USPS office and ask that you want this shipped Express. Its once again pretty expensive but its still about 300% cheaper than shipping it with FedEx or UPS. Did you get this off Tiger? I was thinking about pulling the trigger on...

    Shipping 680 from USA to AUS

    MAKE SURE SHE SENDS IT EXPRESS INTERNATIONAL! It includes insurance 3-5 day delivery and tracking + signature. If you go 1st class international you run the risk of never seeing it again. There is no way to check where your package without Express service, it is the most expensive but it's...

    That is a nice case I was looking @ the review today of it. Nice bay slots and lots of dust filters and spots for fan mounting! Good choice! + it looks simple and clean. [EDIT] - WOW the spot for another fan behind the motherboard is a real nice touch I wonder by how much it actually cools the...

    Clean case fan wiring - SOLUTIONS?

    Yea it's not bad @ all. Did you custom paint your chassis or is that just a blue tint glow coming off from your LEDs? BTW your cable management is nice. Do you purposely leave your side panel off?

    The case looks rather small and if your going to have all that power in 1 little case with a rats nest of cables be ready for heat issues and negative airflow inside. Esp if your going to SLI as you mentioned. I really think you'll run into some problems with size or cables or heat or hardware...

    BIOS help

    If there is no jump you can reset it by touching the 2 pins (that indicate reset - refer the the motherboard manual) with a flathead screwdriver. Hold it here making direct contact between the 2 pins for 10 secs or so. Or you can remove the battery on the motherboard (the silver coin looking...

    Ditch that case! It looks horrible for cable management. Instead go with Carbide 400R or HAF 912 something with lots of motherboard holes for cables and good air flow. Also has no back opening incase you need to do some work on the CPU cooler. Also go with a bare bones OS do you really need a 7...

    Yes go with that setup or maybe even this board so you have 2 powerful SLI slots available @ 16 each http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157281 (Sorry didn't check if this supports your memory so be sure to check it, but I assume it will). However your current choice is...
