  1. oh, I will have (but now am in possession of) a 30mm 360 rad. The second issue I am going to run into is where to put a separate pump and res in the case, no i don't have a combo plate for either of my DDC or D5 pumps, so I need to find a way to mount one that has a direct feed from the res. hmmm
  2. I have to say that's very impressive, I hope my build will turn out similar (my specs are very different than what's on my signature) other than the cables as of yet. I assumed you put your radiator behind the mobo tray? could I see from a more side on angle how the tubing is run? , I hope there aren't clearance issues there as well Lastly do you think if i bought like a 30mm rad it be able to fit it on the front side of the mobo tray or would it be best at the back? Sorry for all the questions lol Thanks
  3. ahh thanks for letting me know that there is enough room for a radiator, I think I'll stick my thick radiator on the top, 85mm should come under that threshold and placing the thin radiator on the side seems fairly logical. I'll be sure to post updates as the last of the parts come in, certainly early next year it'll done
  4. yeah looked at the air then looked at the cost really, plus I have new fans to go into the dynamic anyway, just have a thick radiator here that I want to use and i don't want to put my build together just to find out that it wont
  5. So you'd recommend putting the XE at the top and a slim rad on the side? im not sure if there is 85mm of clearance between the top and the mobo tray, or is it offset enough not to worry?
  6. looking very fine sir am only planning on using two, however. Would it fit if I was to mount the rad on the inside of the side of the chassis and a slim rad at the top?
  7. Hey, there its been a while since I have been on this forum, but I guess this topic could also be put in the New builds planning category, but it's more related to water cooling, so I felt it stuck well here. I have purchased myself the beloved PC 011 Dynamic in the hopes of transplanting my existing water cooling set up to it, with a little expansion in the form of an extra radiator, something a bit slimmer, but onto the dilemma. I currently own an EK X360 kit which included all the parts that I needed at the time, such as the pump block etc, but also a 60mm thick 3x120mm radiator that does a stellar job of everything cool in my current case but has no room for a second rad. I have done some basic measuring and I am worried that there would, in fact, be no room to fit my current radiator anywhere without coming into clearance issues with either RAM or the second radiator I want to fit. I preferably want to use the side mount (besides the motherboard tray) and the top mount as I don't want the interference with getting all the front panel connectors plugged in behind the radiator. So I am asking if anyone here has experience with the case with fitting multiple radiators, and thick ones at that to let me know if my plans would work? Would be much appreciated. Thanks From kiwi land.
  8. I am not hugely after editors at the moment lol, I need some people who i can play with to get the show off the ground , Ill be doing editing myself at the moment as that's my "learning" but if there is any advice or if people want to help edit once i am fully committed to the schedule and have other people who are willing to be hosts, then I may approach people like yourself. Cheers for the offer though.
  9. Well I have got myself a copy of Vegas 13 but some editing could help once I get started, after I get myself some hosts
  10. Sounds promising, although, do you own GTA V on PC? will look forward to hearing back (sorry have been slack with replies myself
  11. Cheers for the offer, its not acting, in real life lol, its just having a personality to voice over the in game character, I may consider your offer if the project gets off the ground
  12. Hi there all I am an aspiring content creator with well lets say very little experience at this point, however since it will be done on a budget Windows Movie Maker to the rescue for now and can upskill later on with new software once the funds become available. I also feel that the filming will do most of the work and editing the video wont be a hugely difficult process. First and foremost. The series. I am in the process of planning and producing an somewhat unoriginal series of "G.T.A Top-Gear" with some tweaks and adaptations along the way. I was very much fueled by Tom Matthews on YouTube who seemed to make a more authentic series than most and would like to channel that vibe into my own, considering that he has just announced that he will be finishing it up on a permanent basis. Which has given me even more inspiration to start filming, sooner rather than later. I have reached out to other gaming communities locally (As I do live in New Zealand, which I will get onto later) and a abroad as I am looking for some extra cast to help me bring my dreams to life. The Roles: A Host: I am looking for atleast one extra member (two would be preferable, but could make do with one) who would partake in: filming/ eg using OBS and Rockstar Editor buying cars reviewing cars voice calling me online And be willing to put up with the hours of "getting things right", well not that its going to be hugely scripted but the camera work would need some practice A Second role I am needing are people who can be: A "Star in a Reasonably Priced (Rally Car)" If I am to go ahead when I have found another host, one of the segments , which I have practically copied from the original is about a guest who will be having timed laps around the test track, which is already complete, They would be partaking in: Having laps in the car being able to co-operate with instructions being able to voice call me online filming and sending me footage of your laps. Caveats: As with anything, there are conditions placed upon the roles I have outlined, and they are basically common sense, but I thought I would outline them here: I will be asking for help with episodes and directing, but if something is set in concrete then please keep to the schedule or the ideas that we or I had agreed on. I do live in New Zealand, which i had described earlier, which means that I am quite far ahead in time zones, but since I have not many commitments, I am able to be flexible with when I can sit-down with people I will be needing people on the PC to play with me as that's the only way I can play the game. Be able to be prompt to changes or be able to plan in advance as I dont want the filming to drag on for months, especially with an outlined schedule. We will arrange a way to send each other footage either One Drive or something similar as I dont think it will be possible to use just one perspective. Obviously this is not complete and I am more than happy to negotiate the content on this description. Feel free to PM me or to leave a comment here. I would love to hear back from anyone who might be interested . I may update the contents in a comment or two.
  13. Hey I was wondering if you could squeeze in a SSD and salvage a HDD from another PC or possibly get a second had one, it really would make a better experience for all the tasks
