  1. Does anyone know if the Lian Li PC08 is available for purchase in Australia? I can't find it anywhere
  2. I regularly buy games from g2a, and I've never once had a single issue. I highly recommend them!
  3. HI guys, I've recently finished building a Mini ITX build with the following specs, Gigabyte GA-H87N-WIFI Mini ITX Motherboard Silverstone 450W SFX PSU Intel Core i3 4130 CPU Samsung 840 EVO Series 120GB SSD Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 RAM Radeon HD 5450 2GB Graphics Card Lite-On Slim Black Internal DVDRW Silverstone SG05-LITE Black Cube Case The system ran without a hitch for a few days, and after a few sporadic shut downs, I now have absolutely no video output from either the graphics card or the onboard outputs. I have tried all outputs with cables and monitors that work without a problem on other systems. I've rebuilt the system outside the case with the same problem and am starting to become a little bit frustrated. I am beginning to think that the motherboard is in some way defective. Does anybody have ANY suggestions? I've already troubleshooted for loose cables, broken cables, power supplies and monitors. Thanks for any help, Jacob.
  4. I have a GTX 670 SLI setup which plays most AAA titles (bar things like Metro, Crysis 3) on ultra settings with 100+ FPS.
  5. I had this exact same problem with a set of 670's. Did you check the option of a 'clean install' when updating your graphics card drivers? After a clean install and a restart a dialogue box appeared notifying me that an SLI option was available, leading me to the nvidia control panel where the option to configure SLI had appeared. Hope this helps
  6. Hi everyone, I ended up going with Gentle Typhoons as they seemed to be a great mix of sound, appearance, pressure and price. I chose to use a pull configuration as it allows for easier cleaning and doesn't from the environment into the case, but air out of the case into the environment. Linus made a video comparing the differences in a video titled "Push vs Pull vs Push-Pull"which highlights some interesting points. The Gentle Typhoons run extremely quietly, noticeably quieter than the stock fans up to about 80%, where they begin to make noise comparably equal to the stock fans. All in all I am very impressed with the fans and cooler, thanks for your opinions!
  7. The fans will be well hidden as it will be setup in a pull configuration, so I may end up going the Noctua's. Thanks!
  8. Hey guys, Picking up a H100i tomorrow and am currently looking at either the Corsair SP120 Quiet mode or the Noctua NF-F12's. Does anybody have experience with these fans in the H100i, or a recommendation for another fan? For what it's worth, I will be cooling a 2600k at 4.5ghz Thanks, and Merry Christmas!
  9. Bent the CPU socket pins on my mother board when cleaning the tiniest fleck of thermal paste from the CPU lever bracket Bye Bye motherboard
  10. Hey everyone, I'm looking to upgrade from everyone's favourite Coolermaster Hyper212 EVO to a closed loop liquid cooler, and am wondering how much of a performance difference there is between a 120mm and 240mm radiator. Does anyone have personal experience or links to a review/benchmark with some temps? I have a Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 so I can install either, just curious to see some numbers! Cheers, Jacob
