GoLLuM13 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Chaptre 3 : HAFinaX 2.1 29/04/2011 let's leave Asus for a little to join Gigabyte, sorry for the pix they were taken with an old Sony DSC-S780 In work, no one to help, just an Origami to control Let's close the case now We do a brand new clean installation of Windows (after some mistakes with a SATA wire) and here is the result what more can i say more than, i'm happy of this "investment", it's all good, it works and i wasn't asking for more, nearly a new AirCooler for some OC , but this is another story *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Edited January 4, 2012 by GoLLuM13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoLLuM13 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) Chapter 4 : HAFinaX 2.2 05/08/2011 The Asus P8P67 Pro came back from RMA, I bought an i7 2600k so it's normal to be back to the Asus (with a mini blue mod for the HAFinaX) Like i said, a new air cooler appeared, the BeQuiet! Dark Rock Pro C1,very beautiful, but really $#!£ annoying to install, for good results and quiet, but at 12v (100%) it does some reactor noise (hopefully it's plugged with the Lamptron FC-2 Regulator) 06/08/2011 Everything is installed (also windows ), so let's boot everything seems ok so let's close the beast 13/09/2011 some changes, like : a new DVD burner Asus (instead of LG), changed the red LEDS of the 230 Frontal fan to Blue, replacement of the 140 back fan by a 120mm NoiseBlocker XL2, and put the 140 in the 5.25" cage .

GoLLuM13 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) A BIG and HUGE thanks to ClandestinoDZ who gave me blue LEDS and the tools to do it, i couldn't do anything without him and also a BIG THANKS to A13X who lend me a hand to help me working on the leds (cause i had no support to hold and do the solder in the same time ) so we did it with wooden clothespin 10/11/2011 Reception, unboxing and assembly of (03) blue Megaflow (sorry for the pix, but the cam doesn't support all these colors/lights .) Let's Start with unboxing. Now let's open HAFinaX (like a surgeon ) for the assembly, and here is what I discovered .... What the ... is this ... ? :pfp:l et's clean this as fast as possible (by the way the last cleaning is less than a month ago, hopefully it's only the upper part which is "like that", but it's up, get down with move (logically ) ) A way better . I hope coolermaster (that i adore) will do filters that we can clean and remove easier (like in the NZXT for example) and especially more efficient filters because when i seen this .... A fast disassembling of the Dark Rock Pro to clean the dust that felt on it. (it looks like my "old" Noctua NH-D14) Finally here is the result. (precision : it's really blue not violet like in pictures) To conclude, i'm pretty satisfied with this fans, it's not really the same blue as the other lights (we don't see it a lot) but it breathes a lot of fresh air in silence Edited January 4, 2012 by GoLLuM13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black64 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Nice build, I like the HAF 932! Whats the point of those 7.1 speakers if there are acting as a 2.1 setup? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoLLuM13 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 Nice build, I like the HAF 932! Whats the point of those 7.1 speakers if there are acting as a 2.1 setup? actually it's a HAF-X but i also owned the HAF 932 for my previous Rig yes it's true it acts like a 2.1 setup but it's louder i installed them like this because i haven't much space, and lot of wires PS : i'll continue to post my other pictures and the evolution in few minutes (as soon as i'll found how to add a video i'm more familiar with vBulletin forums ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PremiumAcc Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 (edited) actually it's a HAF-X but i also owned the HAF 932 for my previous Rig yes it's true it acts like a 2.1 setup but it's louder i installed them like this because i haven't much space, and lot of wires PS : i'll continue to post my other pictures and the evolution in few minutes (as soon as i'll found how to add a video i'm more familiar with vBulletin forums ) I think you may have misinterpreted his reply. I think he knows that it is a HAF-X, but prefers the HAF 932 more. Personally, if I had to choose I'd pick HAF-X over HAF 932. Glad to see another HAF-X owner. Although I despise the case's aesthetic appearance, I too will be joining the HAF-X club real soon. Thanks for sharing your epic journey in 2011 with us.
