  • Re: Pics of your pc setup?

    i like it because the green fan cools my ram plus chipset and heatsink and the other cools the cpu my temps have dropped from 43 celcius to 40 and my chipset went from 36 to 35 celcius

    could it be that my cpu temps dropped from 43 to 40 because of adding that thremal paste at the bottom of my heatsink
    plus my cpu used to be at 46 celcius but when i got the new rosswill psu they dropped 3 celcius

      Your RAM won't get anything from cooling. Neither will your chipset.

      An application of thermal compound can drop temps by 3C and often more.

      If the power supply has a more powerful exhaust and/or intake fans, it can indeed add to case airflow enough to case a 3C drop in CPU temperature.

        Also having higher voltages on the rails can result in more volts to components, and therfore more heat put out by those components. If I adjust the rails on my Powerstream, the voltage to the CPU goes up or down depending on which way I adjust it.

        So having a PSU that is closer to the actual ratings (3.3V, 5V, 12V) could have played a role in that aswell.

                Quit bringing up months-old posts. It's not that hard to check post dates.

                  Here's my setup.. pretty messy with the cables.. but at least everything matches more or less with the black and silver..

                  I'm wondering whether I should've gone with the all-black p180 case instead..

                          Hi everyone. First time poster here and thought I'd say Hi and share my setup...

                          These pics are from my Entertainment room (A detached garage converted into a computer/hobbie/movie room....Hence my calling it my "Entertainment room".....)

                          main PC (lower left of pic):

                            Here are my three setups, A PSone, A Laptop, and a Pentium 1.

                            The Acer is attached to a Wireless Mouse, A Printer/Scanner Combo, A Cable Modem (Rogers) and a 60 Gb Hard Drive. This is the newest toy I have.

                            The PSone is rigged to display on the 7 inch screen, and to put sound on a miserably small speaker. This has been in my possession for five years.

                            The IBM PC400 has a 200MHZ Processor, a CRT screen and wired KB and Mouse. The speakers are built in the case.

                            NOTE: Wide Picture (114KB)

                            EDIT: The IBM is no more... I am using a Pentium 3 Compaq now.

                            UPDATE NOV. 13 2007: The desktop is decommissioned. PSone has aged to 6 Years and has nearly earned its retirement... After I get an upgrade.
