  1. Hello, Im looking for a case that meets several conditions: - compact, mATX size and as small as possible, with no wasted space - with tempered glass - with clear, 2 fan intake at the bottom (most important thing!) - costs less than 150 USD I know only 2 cases that meets my conditions, Inwin 301 and Corsair X280 but i would like to know other options. Any ideas?
  2. Hello, so this is my config: Xeon x5670 Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R rev 1.0 with the newest bios 3x 4GB Kingston HyperX HKX1600C10D3/8G tripple channel I recently put my hands on this whole setup (with memory) as i brough it all for like $160 so the price to performance ratio was too good to ignore it. As far i managed to OC it to 3.91 GHz with all power saving features enabled. But the voltage... to make it stable i had to use 1.3 cpu vcore which seems high, i heard 1.3v is the maximum "safe" voltage on this chip, because the "voltage spike" might occur and increase the voltage up to +0.05v, and any voltage above 1.35v is dangerous to this chip (intel specs). Anyway, i dont think that too low voltage is the issue. Temps are quite ok, from 34-40 when completely idle, from 40-50 when doing light tasks like watching youtube + browsing web + few other light apps, to 70-75 on hottest core when stresstesting. I tried to lower the multiplier to 20 and setting blck to 200 and memory multiplier to make it round 1600 with all stock latency etc to be sure memory is not the problem - it didnt even post, had to reset the cmos. I tried to downclock the memory with my current 22x multiplier to be as close to/bit lower than stock 1600 and setting latencies on stock - still if I'm getting above 3.91 its not stable, no matter what. Any magic trick that i missed? Anyone had similar setup and managed to solve similar issue? I heard 4.0 GHz oc is easy even on x5650, so i was hoping for, like 4.2 on my x5670 but cant get past 3.91 :c Full config on the screens
