Got yet another toy

[gurusan]

Well I've had the Xigmatek for awhile

Newegg.com - XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 120mm Rifle CPU Cooler - Retail

cheapness

what happened to the custom WC?

That mobo is sexy!

 

[Drizzt]

Newegg.com - ASUS P5E LGA 775 Intel X38 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

I was looking at this for a while, seems to be the same mobo as i see in your pics....

It doesnt run with crucial ballistix? -_- I guess i should avoid it...

How is that CPU air cooler?

 

[Peter.Cort]

It's a pretty good cooler...it does have drawbacks as always though:

-Uses supergay Intel clips (I'm going to get a thermalright LGA775 spring kit)
-The bottom is pretty rough because of the direct heatpipe design, I'm thinking of lapping it


Good things:
-Excellent performance
-Extremely quiet 1300rpm fan
-Cheap!
-Looks good, imo



As for the 3850, thanks for the offer but I am looking for 512mb versions or a 3870

please read the entire thread before posting coments or don't post thanks.
