use something like oven paint, even though i don't think it gets hot enough to really warrant it. take them off the MB before you do it and let it dry for 24 hours or more.

its way too big.

if you something like oven paint or a high temp paint then no, im pretty sure most paint will be good above 50c anyways. if you paint the actual fan blades then it can throw off the balance of the fan and cause a little more wear on the bearing. you can check the msds of the paint you want to use to get exact information. the air in your case is probably much lower than 50c too, those temps are right on the gpu.

don't be on your phone, being on a phone is just about as bad as drunk driving. watch for others that are on their phones.

well that's surprising, a modestly built backplate should stop that. maybe something to tie it up is in order.

means you might need another cpu to flash the bios before your cpu would work unless you can flash it without a cpu;i forget the name of what they call it,, a pc repair shop can do it. if they have something like a version 2 of that board it should come with updated bios. a bios is one of the most basic instruction set that tell you components how to talk to the cpu and other parts. depending on games 2 cores might not be enough, some games won't even launch without 4 cores even if your cpu could handle the game. if you can save just a tad more and get something from intel with 4 cores it will serve you alot better in the long run, something like dropping the gpu to 660ti and upgrading the cpu may be a better option in the long run. maybe something like this http://pcpartpicker.com/list/HnJKqk if you have a max price i might be able to help better.

they very well could but, something like 1 to 3c would be my best guess and up to 5c if airfow was really bad. gpus temps probably will drop even less as they just put out so much heat and sensors are right on the pcb. if you can move the AIO to the top and put to intakes on the front you would probably be in a better position if that's a option. most components are fairly heat tolerant so as long as temps are decent you won't have any noticeable decrease in life of parts. gpu caps are often rated at 40-50c with psu's being tested in that range too, your case temps are most likely below well that range so, all should be good. 40c is about 104 f, pretty hot and something you would most likely notice.

pie controls is neat.

ah, in that case i've always heard good things about these http://www.akasa.com.tw/search.php?seed=AK-FN057 not the best bearing but 50k hours is like 3 years so, up to you. are temps a problem? if not then how much air is really flowing is already sufficient and adding fans would add more noise unless you lower rpm. with crossfire, if you have a side panel case fan slot this would just be about the only time i would use them, just to suck some air out around that area as one the gpus is going to dump a ton of hot air into the other one almost immediately and not too much we can do about it because the distance between them is so small.

why, too loud, not enough airflow for you? they look like high static pressure just because the blade type. i've never had those nor i do i test a lot of fans so, i can only go on my own experience which is limited;sorry. also colored led fans have never been a favorite of mine, it seemed like more marketing than performance but, i could just be biased after having a friend with some corsair fans.

yes and no, it's a 3 pin fan which isn't bad on its own it just only really has 3 setting based on voltage. for a case fan no problem but cpu fans should be pmw and i prefer pmw fans if you have a 4 pin headers. a 4 pin will give you more control over speed and will have a lest ramp up noise as it will scaled better. i've not used these in as i got the black/orange ones and haven't looked back.

they don't seem to get much love around the block, the black ones are nice too. i can run them at max speed and they are still pretty quite. people tend to buy corsair then hate them and jump right to noucta, too much money for me. also what did you get rid of the other fans you bought? this might be able to point us in a better direction of what to offer you. this guy seemed to do pretty good reviews, but nothing is new from him i think.

i feel in love with these for the price, they are super quite and move a good amount of air plus the bearing should last longer than my pc. there is also a post just below this that list some high presure static fans and those listed at outstandin aswell. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835553002&cm_re=cougar_fans-_-35-553-002-_-Product that post, only reason why there is only one post is because he pretty much said the best fans i can think of for that type of use. i would also take fan spec with a grain of salt as they are one trying to sell you something and 2 done under idle conditions.

nope , it has a backplate and should be more than fine;shouldn't sag at all. the amp cards are normally pretty good too. only thing might be iffy is zotac support but, you can send them a email about something easy and if they respond soonish than they are doing ok on that front, RMA is another beast though and i can speak of zotac rma.

should be as the cooler had about 100 watts of tdp over the cpu tdp. i like air cooling and the cooler you got is a very good one with outstanding fans on it. i like air because you know right then if its broken as its only the fans and there is no guess work or liquids around my pc parts, i already blow enough caps as it is. air cooling can also be quieter and in this case probably will be.

here are some review of the mice and sensor info, i can only speak to mouse i have and the sensor is great. didn't include the razer. still shape of mice and hand is going to be the biggest factor at play i feel. the only two compaines I've had any time talking to support is logitech and roccat, both responed within the day and answered my questions. http://www.overclock.net/t/1504917/logitech-g402-hyperion-fury-gaming-mouse-review-by-ino http://www.overclock.net/t/1453053/steelseries-rival-review-by-takasta http://www.overclock.net/t/1499343/roccat-kone-pure-military-review << added mine just because i love it so much. http://www.overclock.net/t/1168062/evaluation-steelseries-sensei-56k-warning

from what i read these don't look bad at all. never used them and i don't see a mic, don't know if that's a deal breaker. just remember everything is made at a cost and things that are real value are few and far between. edit: it has a mic, im dumb and should read better.

pulled one head off already and just took out the spark plugs to the other side;found antifreeze on them. hip hip hooray going to be taking the other head off later tonight. also took what look to be about 10 cans of skol of carbon buildup out of the intake. all for free, sometimes i wish i was a only child. 1st time posting just thought some people in here might know the feels.

i second this, i drop mine almost daily and they still work like a champ. i think you are going to be hard pressed to find anything better close to the price range.

much better at solving a differential equations than i am at writing so, slim chance. better chances on just building something i like, been looking into making a mirror for a scope only like 500 hours of grinding;not too bad.

i got a used 8 inch dob for $200 that the seller said I would never be able to see Jupiter, saw it the first night. looking to buy hubble is anyone want to chip i

I'm not going to let deaths cold hands get me that easy. I still have all my fingers after doing uxo removal for years, must be something right. my b-day was yesterday and I can feel old age creeping up my damn knees hurt.

running a psu at high load can be stressfull on the poor guy, a 20% headroom is something i recommend only because when caps go they are loud and make you pee a little. not to mention if you add fans and other stuff down the road it would be cutting it too close for me. this can very much depend on the pus's some are rated for lower than they really are just for some extra protection or the design of the gpu line is only "cut down" so much. johhnyguru is a website with oscilloscope reading i love to browse and look at psu's, check out yours if its listed. they will have some explaining so if you don't know what all the graphs mean it should help you out on the last page of the review. http://www.jonnyguru.com/

seeing as it's a high end card, hes probably upgraded to something better. i would ask why hes getting rid of it just to find out. if it's local you might be able to ask to see it used before you buy it. I'm not sure how many manufacturers will ask if you're the original owner and if any warranty carries over. a year old card will most likely be fine, even a oc shouldn't matter much as most cards are voltage locked and we can do any real damage to them.

i would guess so, i didn't see anything uncommon. you can check locally or order from online depending on what you like.
