xplayazplayzonx Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 the setup looks really good. Everything should work in sync with each other. you should be able to mount your h80 inside of the case. especially with the big amount of space the case has.

miniSPLlancer Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 don't forget some artic silver for your thermal paste, looks good so far, I'm assuming your SSD has a high read/write at sata 6GB right?

Maxim Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 don't forget some artic silver for your thermal paste, looks good so far, I'm assuming your SSD has a high read/write at sata 6GB right? Don't need thermal paste. The H80 comes with the good stuff pre-applied. Just curious. Why are there 3 2TB 5900 RPM drives? Do you already own them? Is this being built by you or ordered online from a custom site? (iBUYPOWER, CyberPower PC, etc.) If you're looking for 2TB internal drives, go for these: Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200 RPM They're a full 7200RPM drive with 64MB cache and are rated to cost $0.20 more per year to operate than the 5900 RPM version. Faster drives are never a bad thing, even if they're just for data/backup. Hopefully this helps! Quote wtf is lolcats? I'd def get a fat hooker if i had to resort to that kinda thing. I feel like they'd be grateful and work harder. Also its more bang for my buck, more real estate for my dollar if you catch my drift. its like the Costco of streetwalkers. I was hoping for 150 . I was hoping she would let me put it in her butt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thinking must have missed those the drive will be for movie games music I am wanting to mak it a home theater/ Gaming machine should i get a seperate sound card if so what would i do for speakers/surround sound.

I added a sound card to my computer because I just felt like the onboard Realtek chipset wasn't cutting the mustard. I use a gaming headset and there was a significant lack of bass in games and music. A soundcard is a great thing to add to most machines. YOURS on the other hand has a VERY nice onboard sound chip. I wouldn't recommend getting a sound card unless you're looking for absolute top sound quality and are using an absurdly expensive audiophile headset. Quote wtf is lolcats?
