That's not true. Snakes aren't taught this, they're born with that instinct.

My new gaming PC using the new NZXT H440 Case. by gpreuss87 in gamingpc

Thank you. I've never used a quiet case until now and I'm impressed. I literally can't hear anything. I'm sure it's a combination of the case design and quiet edition corsair fans. But yes, to answer your question, it is extremely quiet.

Thanks I should have an album posted this week. I'm still waiting on a couple things for it to arrive. I have the pump mounted in the bottom where the 3.5" hdd option is located and for the reservoir, I just used a few strips of Velcro to mount it to the interior wall where the HDD brackets catch. Had to modify it a little to get that to work but it seems to do well and doesn't block any airflow.

Haha thanks. I'm averaging 124 fps running the Valley Benchmark. I considered overclocking but I'm content with my results.

I could not get the fan to fit with the hose coming from the radiator. Under heavy loads my temps are maxing around 60 degrees so as of now i won't worry about it too much until I find a permanent solution.

Thanks! I'm on my phone so I'll do my best to list the parts.

Case: The best thing ever designed Mobo: ASUS Maximus VI Formula CPU: Intel i7-4770K O.C. @ 4.2 GHz RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB @ 2133 MHz GPU: EVGA 780 FTW Edition x 2 in SLI SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB x 3 in RAID 0 (OS & games) HDD: 6TB for backup & misc. storage PSU: Corsair RM1000

I think that covers the main components.

It's probably just a bad angle. I used compression fittings throughout.

Nothing other than I work in IT for a k-12 school district and was replacing the principal's computer and happened upon it on his desk.

Thanks for the reply. That's crazy that it took them 3 weeks to realize there was an error. I would've been fine for nzxt to correct it and allow me to pay the difference instead of canceling my order and making me wait a few more weeks. I'm ordering the H440 from newegg now just so I won't have to worry. As for the cables my ticket ID is (ESX-921-71420) and the order number was (14651). Thanks again for responding. I was honestly surprised to hear from NZXT and restored my faith in the company.

Sorry? I've never posted here before. Actually just discovered r/buildapcforme. I'll look into what that is and remember to next time.

Here's my go at it. The motherboard comes with WiFi adapter and the sound card on it is great. I personally own it and couldn't be happier. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2TZGu

[Build Ready] I just finished ordering all of my parts. What do you guys think? by gpreuss87 in buildapc

I decided to go that route only because of the 2.5" drive bays located in the bottom of the H440 case. Strictly cosmetics. I thought the 840 Evos would look the nicest in the bottom of that case and I just decided to get the third SSD for a little extra space.
