is that a speaker box? if so, it's a good idea, could but a big 12 inch exhaust fan on the mofo ^_^

1 inch is like 3.5cm, i think, for you metric folks ;)

"It is known that 1 cm is equal to 0.3937 inch and 1 inch is equal to 2.54 cm."

[x0o]

is that a speaker box? if so, it's a good idea, could but a big 12 inch exhaust fan on the mofo :rolleyes:

haha, well. almost right, its made out of wood and its got a speakermat glued on it!

I would paste more pictures if i had any good ones, the only ones i have are old, from the first version, and there it looks like crap. ): But if you still want to check them out, and see how i built it: http://medlem.spray.se/sl1ce/cube/ (the stats listed here are old as well)

Here is some info: (copied from sweclockers.com)

----------:----------

Weight: 22kg (incl components)

- 120 mm very powerfull fan, with 45ppi filter, in front. (INTAKE)

- 4 x Cooler master 80mm silent fans, 2x on top (EXHAUST, yellow leds), behind (INTAKE, blue led, with 100ppi filter) and one modded into an old pci-card, serves as extra cooling for gpu! (green).

- Zalman CNPS7000-Cu CPU Cooler

- Rheobus Fancontroller 3.5 Black.

- Power-button made from an old phantom-ring (wires from old case).

- Covered in black speaker-clothing.

- Copper vent on top.

- CCFL: Green Bitsmodding Cold Cathode Light-kit.

- Powerfull handles on both sides.

- CD/floppy-holders, back panel and mobo-holder were taken from old case and painted.

- HDD-holder is made from two metal plates with holes in (? B)). These plates also serve as passive cooling for the harddrives!

~ Pros:

- It cools really well. HDD: 120mm, CPU: extra 80mm, top: 2 x 80mm, GPU: extra 80mm.

Temp readings (speedfan), (Max load 2h means playing FarCry at highest graphics for 2h), (Idle means idle:ing for two hours after playing FarCry, chatting on msn, surfing.. ):

Temp outside case: 21.8'C

Temp inside case: (Idle: 29.1'C), (Max load 2h: 32.8'C)

CPU:(Idle: 35'C - Max load 2h: 42'C)

GPU:(Idle: 40'C - Max load 2h: 50'C)

HDD1 - System disk:(Idle: 27'C - Max load 2h: 33'C)

HDD2:(Idle: 21'C - Max load 2h: 28'C)

HDD3: N/A

- The 16mm solid wood makes it really quiet!

- Imo it looks really cool, and im proud to have built it!

- It makes a great foot-rest!

~ Cons:

- I can hardly get it into my car/out of the front door :P

- Its really heavy, but i actually like that, feels reliable (:

Currently an AREA-51M 7700 5.3 GREY 17". Alienware makes some great gaming notebooks but I think the tech support is going to go way down since Dell acquired them Don't get me wrong Dell makes a good product there support has just gone to hell since they started outsourcing their support.

And although my motherboard is prime for OC'ing, i've barely done anything with it. I've been able to take advantage of some of it's other features, like the two onboard gigabit LAN ports.. One for internet, one for FTPing to Xbox. I've also almost used up all 6 USB ports, but havent had the chance to use the Firewire yet... nor have I used more than just standard audio, although I have the option for 5.1.

Box, why don't you try RAID 5. It doesn't lose all the data when 1 HDD crashes.

I am not concerned with loosing data. I am more concerned with when data was backup. I backup the secondary once a month and the primary once a week or before traveling. The problem with me is that I have the tendencies to delete files that I don't think I needed then discovered that I do need them. :wub:

[LeetPirate]

Raid 5 wastes an extra HDD just to hold checksums. Raid 1+0 is the best for everyday usage where fault tolerance is needed.
