  1. Id say turn it into a cool server but thats going to chew through power for what its doing lol. it looks beautiful tho.
  2. That's just a fan hub aka pass through. So if your motherboard has Voltage control then yes the dc fans will work.
  3. No mine is the OG large Armor circa 2005
  4. its a conversion that I started in 2006 Evo 8 drivetrain and typical bolt ons. need to find some oem parts and a new roof then ill paint it.
  5. I haven't posted in forever. My wife says my hobbies are expensive lmao 16 years and still not done ( I had a 7 year period were I did not own it. Bought it back in 2020)
  6. Cold cathode would be cool but man ive had bad luck with them in the past. I think with custom cables I should be able to route the cables with no modding to the case. But if i do add 2 fans in the floor ill probably just add some cable management grommets. I will say as an older pc enthusiast that we tend to take for granted that even the cheapest cases these days have tons of cable management and better fan layouts lol. this case airflow wis was really good. its actually quieter then my NR200 build that I cam from.
  7. Little back story, The Thermaltake armor was the first high end case purchase for my back in 2006. I sold it going into adulthood but just recently re acquired one through a friend that shoved his in his basement 12+ plus years ago X570 Aorus elite 5800X Be quiet dark rock 32gb gskill 4000mhz mem Founders 3080ti Thermaltake GF1 850w psu 512gb & 1tb Samsung M.2 1 10tb 3X2tb drives Bluray drive 4X Noctua 120mm fans and 2 Be quiet 92mm fans (Tempted to add 2 fans in the floor of the case) I decided to put the PC together first and then figure out better wire management later. Im on the fence about modding the case and am kinda leaning toward just fill; custom cables to clean everything up
  8. Im doing rust repair over winter on my Sw20 this will be the second one I restore. Hopefully the last LOL
  9. This is my 4th one. I'm in the process of restoring it. I don't plan for it to be my for er car tho. I will replace it with an evora 400 one day.
  10. Some before afters. So far Ive deep cleaned the car. Replaced clutch Shocks Springs Stereo Speakers Fixed HVAC Fixed AC Wheels and tires Im putting the car in storage in the next couple weeks Plan in spring is to Caldina 3SGTE swap the car. Replace the seats and some body work and then off to paint.
  11. Picked up this SW20 non turbo back in March This is my 3rd MR2 I've owned. needed a little work but rust free.
  12. 99% of dyes don't clog a system so long as they are not Opaque. Some opaque dyes have been known to clog over time.
  13. Two 95w tdp cpus with a Dual 60mm rad id say no. Cool one cpu MAYBE my guess is you would have to have fans full speed. If pure cooling power is the goal id say a a 280 rad would be what your looking for. Dual 140 Or a dual 120 (240) thats slightly thicker (for more water volume) A single 480 tho would allow you to run the system silent.
  14. l-360 kit and add 2 fittings toy our cart and the appropriate block for your gpu. https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-kit-l360-r2-0 https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-fc1080-gtx-g1-nickel X2 of these https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-acf-fitting-12-16mm-nickel
  15. 1060 is really good for the cost in fact its what i call the "Point of no return card" meaning as you step up to a 1070 1080 etc the reward diminished compared to value. Ive used EVGA step up but years ago (2010) ID give their page a read first before considering. I know that they still have a limit on what cards/boards can be stepped up. https://www.evga.com/support/stepup/
  16. Spending 200$ on a motherboard only to realize the software to control the fans, temps and rgb was coded by a 4 year old. Seems to be the norm trend tho for all software regarding hardware manufacturers. NZXT, Gigabyte, Asus, MSI I'm looking at you !!!
  17. Same boat, I've played all GT's except for 5. 6 was a real let down for me. The DLC wars is going to be an ongoing thing for a long time. its why i buy vanilla most of the time lol they usually do expansions cheaper too later on.
  18. Hopefully it supports ultra wide red this time. Thanks for the input. going to give them demo a shot later today I did play FM6 apex it was not bad. I have a bunch of buddies that are die hard xbox dudes that love the forza series they have been pushing me to buy it since its a cross play game now. I find forza way more enjoyable than GT6
  19. If you bought it new warranty it? its a 90$ wheel setup i wouldn't expect miracles from it.
  20. Dont know much about console but id start in your setting in game for the wheel. re calibrate it in game if thats a thing. Im sure most people in this group are pc players
  21. So who all has played the F7 demo yet? Im in the process of downloading it. currently reviews are looking grim tho. Seems they have gotten more and more arcade like with feedback.
  22. So just buy a quality RGBW and im good lol. I figured it was a lack of know how is why the pre done stuff was the norm. You have a link to were you got ahold of your leds?
  23. I have a roll for my desk also. The motherboard would control the strip in fact all you use is the strip. I purchased a weather proof unit for my desk so exposure is limited to which version you buy.
