I'm also from SA, water cooling is expensive, but in the long run it's worth it You can get the Coolermaster SEIDON 120V PLUS for R680

Your desktop doesn't have to have a GPU installed, you have a onboard GPU on your motherboard 1) Google your motherboard make and model with the word "Drivers" 2) Go to the official website if possible. 3) Download the display driver and install. 4) You might need to restart Hope it works

1) Make sure your drivers are up to date. 2) might be worth it to clean your laptop's heat sinks if you are up for it.. (please watch youtube videos on how to open your laptop) that's if you choose to do so. Playing games won't damage your laptop unless you've over clocked 3) Memory=Ram...

I personally have heard the fan is loud, but the Zalman will bring your temp just below your standard cooler. Would say it's more about the look than actual cooling to me, if you compare it to the standard one... Temp will drop, but not by much. Rather save up and get water cooling..

You can get a more or less an idea on what you should look for. Not that is perfectly accurate but will be close. http://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator

Thanks a mill, much appreciated.

Hi, Using motherboard ASUS H97 -plus, no RAID card. As a decent RAID card is quite expensive, its not really an option RAID Details: Volatile Volume Cache Settings Type: RAID5 Size: 11 178 GB Write-cache buffer flushing: Enable Cache mode: Write through Any advice?

Hi 6 x 3TB Seagate barracuda drives 1 x SSD I have built a RAID 5 with five of the drives and keeping one as a spare. Right after the initialization of the RAID completed my copy speed is very slow, 10 MB/s from internal drive to RAID. I have my OS on a SSD, thinking of using a part of my SSD...
