Gopher Love Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Here she is... Specs are in my sig. Outside overview - The top of the case slides back to reveal a storage tray, the sliding piece can be screwed shut with two thumb screws - Yup, the bottom has double stacked fans. I have 2 120MM fans stacked ontop of eachother with thin rubber washers in-between them to make sure they dont hit each other while spinning. It moves ALOT more air than one. Probably not double due to turbulance but it still moves ALOT more than one. My cable mess thats behind the MB - Inside (The case originally came unpainted on the inside but I hate that look so I bought some nice paint and put took the ENTIRE case apart and painted every piece) - Anyone got any tips about how I could improve this monster?? I dont know what else to do to it... I'm getting a new keyboard and mouse for gaming, getting a new fan controller/temp monitor cuz the one I got sucks, and will eventually replace a couple of the smaller IDE drives with large SATA drives. My step now is to water cool the CPU/MB first. What else do you think I should do to make it better?

ekiM Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 Unless it's changed, I think you need your RAM in DIMM slots 1 and 3 for dual channel configuration Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Love Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Hmm... um my MB manual said to install it in DIMM-0 and 1... is there some way to check it??? CPU-Z says it's in dual channel... I always thought you needed to install in the same colored slots... Edited December 14, 2009 by Gopher Love Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scr4wl Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 Different Motherboards use different slots for dual channel memory. Some have alternating slots, others don't. The slots are usually color coded, and it appears as though yours are. If your manual says that 0 and 1 are dual channel, then you should be fine. Looks pretty sexy BTW.

Sihastru Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Is your video card at full speed? Some MB will not work at full 16x speed if you use one of the lower slots. Edited December 14, 2009 by Sihastru Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Love Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 Yup, my MB has 4 x16 slots, 2 run at 8X and two at 16X the first and third run at 16X... I put it on the lower so it would have more space between it and the CPU cooler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
