Fair warning on that fan: The blades are super close to the edge of the frame (I have the MasterFan 140 Pro so maybe there's a difference but I doubt it). You may have to do some bending depending on where you're putting the fan and such.

Good to know!

The panel where its going to be installed has a large bulge on it, i think it will be alright there...

1. Wait you know what Nep Nep is? Holly crap. Also today I will

2. Yeah lol well I got permission after the HDD started to die on my PC

3.  That's Windows 7's task manager. Core Temp is where you want to look. 47 C under full load despite the dust

4. Yep, Its possible. Surprisingly fast too. Good thing too because my PC died a few days ago. Today im going shopping so ill buy a new HDD and a new PSU 

Yep!  I have all the Neptunia games that have been released on Vita in NA and VII on PS4.  I've also gotten some of them on PC.  I've only played Rebirth 1,2, 3, and part of VII so far.

 

Though mostly because I've been distracted by other games.  Currently Breath of the Wild.  ? 

 

 

Good luck getting your computer back up and running.  ?

Dedicated player since they had them on sale.

Awesonw.  ?

 

How much and what model if it's ok to ask?    I'm curious how that compares to my getting a One S vs a dedicated one.

Take the old one out, put new one in, shove cable through the 24 + 8 pin hole, plug into motherboard, profit.

PSUs aren't really designed to allow for using a case fan in them though...  >_>

Ouch.  It would take a lot of hugs to make that pain better.  lol

 

Help them by doing what?

Streaming what?    Like Netflix and Hulu?

 

Sounds like a very good price I'm guessing.  

 

Cheaper than the One S that's for sure.  Though if all you need is movie playback then paying for a game console wouldn't have necessarily been the best option.

Yes, because they don't have access to the same budget that we do.

I'm not sure what their budget has to do with you.

 

If you know it'll work you could tell them so and if they trust you they'd believe it without you spending $70 on that *I don't have a nice word for how bad of a deal that is* card.  

 

Helping is good I applaud that but you could help without buying a graphics card.

Though, that feature pointless for me (data caps).  I barely game any more.

I mean PSU housings aren't meant to fit a case fun inside them.  Maybe I'm not understanding what you plan to do with that fan but it doesn't seem as doable as you're implying.  ?

Most games no longer interest me much, plus focused more on my degree and finding a good job.

I'm almost done with my MLIS degree and I hope to find a good job.  Cross your fingers, pray, whatever you think will help me please.  

 

Library jobs around Wisconsin seem to be a bit rare atm.  I'm extra screwed since I have zero experience because no one told me internships and/or volunteering was a thing until it was too late...

Ouch, yeah, experience is a big thing.

 

Lucky, being a Guard member in IT.  I have experience to back up my resume and contacts.

 

Best thing to do is volunteer around at events and chat with people.  Good way to build up a list of contacts and even find jobs.

Dude: Power supplies USE normal case fans. The only difference is that they use a 2-pin connector because they don't need RPM or anything like that...

Idk if there's library events and my problem is I'll be needing money coming in for loan payments. 

 

A bit hard to volunteer and get paid...  ?

LMG did a video on this topic. Any obstruction in the case will have a negligible impact on the temperatures except for the condition of extreme clutter.

Extreme clutter being, of course, filling the case with t-shirts and such.

Indeed. But why would you fill up your case with clothes anyway? Hiding your 'special' rag from your parents? Would be an odd place to put it...

Megadimension VII + all the DLC (Or V2 if you wish to call it that) and a new 1 TB WD Blue 7200 Rpm HDD. My old Seagate 1 TB was dying so I replaced it with a WD blue. Least to say is that its a billion times quieter than my Seagate one. Worth the 53$ I spent on it. Megadimension was totally worth the 74$ I spent on it......Just kidding I already fell in love with the game. The PC specs are way too high though. GTX 650 Minimum. Sure my GT 730 can take it at 720p but man it loves GPU's. Still 40 FPS is very playable so another win for my GT 730 as im streaming the game 90% of the time I play it to my laptop so resolution doesn't matter in that case.
