The Reconstruction of Sable

[Trotter]

I just ordered two of these, one for me and one for my wife:
Newegg.com - ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 64 Pro 92mm Ceramic CPU Cooler

I have also gotten approval on returning the Core Contact, just got to ship it. I hope they don't mind USPS because I'm not paying $11 to ship it UPS.

Newegg should have sent u a prepaid UPS return label with your RMA. Thats weird if they didn't

 

[Trotter]

Nope. It is $11.33 to ship UPS, and that's using the print UPS label option on my RMA page. I don't know what it will be to ship USPS, but it should be a lot less.

wow Mine was free. That sucks man

Wiring shots. I will also post these to the wiring thread.

Once I get the cooler I should be pretty much done for now. I still want to get a 3.5" USB panel, but it's not a major thing.

Added on a set of case feet I bought about three years ago but couldn't use in my old corner desk. We bought me a 6' table to use as a computer desk this weekend, so I can finally use the feet on my case... plus it helps keep me from gouging up the table with my case. Spent some time this morning moving my system from the old desk to the new .

One drawback to using the table is the vibration from the cooler and case fans. My mouse sometimes wants to "walk" to the top of the screen because of it. Hopefully the new cooler will help out with that; it should be delivered today.

very nice build

how many fans does your case support? i can only see 1 rear (and it looks like a small 80mm at that).

 

[Trotter]

Two front, one rear, one top. They are all 80mm as 80's were the top size at the time the case came out. My next upgrade will (hopefully) be a new case. this upgrade covers my anniversary and Christmas, so I will be waiting at least until my birthday and Father's Day.

EDIT: Hmmm... looks like I need to update my sig. Maybe tonight.

Man, I am very, very happy for you, I know me and you are in the ship here, but I felt horrible that I was able to upgrade my system and you couldn't, and I don't mean that in a funny,nasty way.
I was looking at my budget for this month I was just about to email you and force you to take my Athlon II X3.
Sure it's not an real retail phenom ii quadcore, but it does things to **** fast, hehehe.

I know you said don't bother to mail you my stuff but I was this close on contacting you tonight...
Anyway I'll be posting a sad thread in the off topic forum.

You officially have now bypassed me in everything, welcome to the AMD quadcore life!
