    Static pressure is very important to push enough air through the dense heatsink. Asides from taking off the shroud and mounting larger fans, I wouldn't recommend anything other than the NF-A9x14's. They're hard to beat.

    I'm refering to 'cooling' performance, especially in acoustics  Just a better fan wont let you overclock that much better to be noticeable compared to when the card's working normally.

    There are no standards.
    Everything is different for each card.
    You need to DIY it.

    I have Contacted Phanteks US and they said:
    You would need to contact PCCG for any warranty issues.
    Bought mine from pccasegear.com even if i do get it replaced its gonna be the same issues anyways.
    Sounds like a hassle taking my computer apart then going through the process of Packaging it then shipping it back to them for a replacemen.
     
    Is it really worth the hassle going through all that process ?

    The Phanteks Enthoo Pro M Acrylic Edition came out way before the Tempered Glass Versions.
    I get this feeling Phanteks knew they fucked up big time with the Acrylic Version having Problems & Issues from Feedbacks.
     
    Thats why they Release the Tempered Glass Version which doesn't have any Problems to
    make up for it ? But that still doesn't fix my current problem with the side panel.
     
    No wounder the Shops & Online Stores don't have Acrylic Version anymore only the Glass Version, Phanteks knew they stuffed up.
    Hell i bet they stopped making it.
     
    Idk man i think Phanteks did a poor design with this Acrylic Panel either the 4 Screws was a bad idea OR the holes and Screws alignment was way off.
    Hell 4 bolts/Scews isn't enough thats why the middle top/bottom of the panel have Gaps for dust to enter=Fail.

    Even with Acrylic Panel Screwed on there's a Gap between them at the top and bottom where dust & unfiltered air enters which cause the dust to stick behind the Acrylic Panel.
    And if you try to clean it off it scratches very easily.

    No problem.  Coincidentally my games are working now on the external HDD, so I formatted my internal HDD and transferring files now.  So far so good, except I lost over 50 hours in an RPG I'm playing (doesn't work well with Steam Cloud)

    You gotta have Tecmo Bowl. Arch rivals is fantastic also. Ninja gaiden is another. Jordan vs Bird is a classic. If you can you could get Star Fox. Golden tee golf would be awesome if you can get the ball mechanism.

    I have downloaded almost all the roms, I could file share them with you if you are interested. I built a retro console with a raspberry pi and retro pi.

    While i won't provide a link or details i will give some advice/warning.
     
    Even the most legit place to get roms will tend to have issues with potential scams.  Those sites usually have a ton of pop ups that make it look like you need to "click here" to download the rom, but in reality they aren't necessary and its likely the rom is already downloading on your computer.
     
    I do wish there were a Legit place to buy these roms.

    Scramble was probably my favourite cabinet when I was a kid (until OutRun arrived) and it's still pretty fun to play. Rush'n'Attack (Green Beret in the U.K.), Road Fighter's another good one.

    Also, Joust is pretty cool...but those older games really were just designed to take your money, so there's not too much depth to the gameplay and the "playability" is lacking. That was a term in the UK video game print media of the eighties. Most arcade cabinets don't have great "playability", they're mostly just kill-screens

    Pacman Arrangement is good and personally I really like Pacmania but the difficulty is pretty severe. Dig Dug is another classic. Also, Mr. Do, Galaxians, Galaga, Popeye (made by Nintendo believe it or not). Centipede's okay (I played it so much I got bored of it) but you need a track ball, missile command, but I think that was another trackball game.

    Donkey Kong is an absolute must. Try and get the ROM hack with the multiple levels.

    Gorf was a classic, Q-bert, another classic.

    To the first guy I quoted: There is not set definition of an audiophile, and audiophiles are not magical people that can hear differences other people cant.
     
    To you: A sound card probably wont do anything better, compared to your good onboard. I would only start considering upgrading the motherboard when we are talking about $100+ dac's

    Hello and welcome to Project Hades by Darwin PC!

    Introduction
    Hades was the ancient Greek god of the underworld, a son of Titans and brother of Zeus and Poseidon. As Project Hades will feature an inverted ATX conversion, the underworld theme made sense. I have a few mods planned to make this build stand out.
