Open case has a larger cooler which supposed to be more silent. Also, cooler on the open case can be easily changed, but not on the closed case. Those are the reasons why I've bought open case..

Yeah, forgot to tell you. I am using Corsair HX 650W modular PSU. You can't go wrong with that one.

The new rig is running fine, although I have to say that I haven't noticed improvement over my previous configuration based on Intel Q6600 and 4GB of XMS2 RAM. You can stick with the Dominator as the prices have gone down since I bought my machine, but IMO you would also be satisfied with XMS3 if you want to save a few bucks.

Goodbye David.

Happy Fathers Day to you too mate.

I have the same MBO, CPU and Graphic card. All I can say, go for it! I also bought Corsair, but cheaper XMS3, since I don't plan to overclock.

When I did this I haven't been able to recover the data, although I have used various tools

Hi there, I had the same issue with Windows Vista Ultimate x64 and Windows 7 Ultimate x64. I had 4GB of RAM and if my computer was on for the whole day, in the evening hours my memory usage was over 90%. In my situation the problem was in Eset NOD32 Antivirus x64. When I've uninstalled NOD32 Antivirus, my issues were gone. I see that you are using Avast antivirus. Try to uninstall Avast, just for a test and see what happens. I would also try to uninstall TuneUp utilities. If neither helps, try to use 'msconfig' to disable all non-Microsoft startup items and services and see if the problem persists.

Thanks for the clarification guys LOL@ Rick 'anal as MSFN' Don't be so harsh

It is a secret?

+1 I have to agree with this..

Hello zookey, Move the visio.msp to another folder. I have setup Office the same way, and have seperate installs for Publisher, Visio etc, the difference is that the msp's are in different folders, not the updates folder. My understanding of the Updates folder is that setup applies "all" msp's (alphabetically) in that folder. \\path to media\setup.exe /adminfile \\path to media\clientname\MSPublisher07.MSP /config \\path to media\Publisher.WW\config.xml I found I had to specify the config file, although there is almost nothing in it. (below) <Configuration Product="Publisher"> <USERNAME Value="clientname" /> </Configuration> Source See if that helps.

No, I've checked all the stores, Noctua isn't available here. Mostly Scythe and Zalman. Thermaltake here and there maybe..

That's a good link. This one seems interesting, but I'm not sure if the airflow of 33.5 CFM would be sufficient, although it could as I am currently using P183 fans at lowest speed. http://www.quietpc.c...ns/s-flex120800 If someone thinks that I'm a Scythe fan, then please check that I don't have much options here http://www.links.hr/...tegorija=050908 BTW. I've sent a mail to Antec support to see what they will have to say about this oil leakage.

Thanks! Since I have cleaned the fans now, I should wait for the next round of oil leakage BTW, there is no growling sound, but the chassis seems a bit louder than the first time I was using it. Thanks for the links, but if I replace this default fans, I won't be able to use the speed meter at the back of the case. Anyhow, since Noctua isn't available in Croatia, this one should be: http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/products/120mmfans/s-flex120800 Those 2 pieces should be good. I have used these before http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/products/120mmfans/sy-kazejyuni-1200, but they seemed loud. I still have those, but haven't tried it my new case. Update: Yup, all of the Scythe's from the provided list are available here.

That is one huge cooler Mr_Smartepants , but since I am not an overclocker, I really don't need that kind of power I've just enabled some CPU fan feature in BIOS. (I haven't remembered the name of it). and now my CPU fan spins at around 1050 rpm with temperature of 37-42C in idle. During the UT3 game FAN automatically spins to 1800rpm and holds the CPU temperature at 50-55 C.So, it seems that CPU fan only makes that loud sound at 2000< rpm. With 1040rpm, stock fan seems quiet and generally it is more silent now. One thing that bothers me is that I can replace the case coolers with another set, but I can't use the current speed control set.http://benchmarkrevi..._fan_switch.jpg Also, I have noticed an oil on my both case coolers. Since my camera is currently borrowed, I've took a picture with my cell phone and will post it later on. Should I return those to the store and ask for another set of case coolers.I will post pictures in about an hour. Here are the pictures of coolers, along with the tissue that I've used to clean those coolers. Looks like an oil to me.

But, you're hired man!! I'm glad to hear that mate!

Thanks for your answers guys. @LZR No mate, by reviews available on the net, Scythe seems to be among the best. In my old PC I had been using Glacial Tech Igloo 5750 which is unbelievably silent, but it it not available anymore and I've sold it with my old PC. @Mr.Smartepants I agree with you for top-down coolers as I have 2x120mm exhaust coolers in the Antec P183 case. So, I agree that a better option would be a cooler that would pull the heat from the cooler and then case coolers would move hot air from the case. I have noticed that even though my processor hits 55 C during gaming there is no hot air moving out of the case, probably because my Intel stock cooler is also top-down. Therefore, please link me to reviews for your cooler suggestions for my Intel I5 1156. @ccl0 CoolIT ECO or Corsair H50 aren't available here in Croatia Update. I was checking tower coolers that are available here and here's what I've found: Cooler SCYTHE KATANA 3 SCKTN-3000 Cooler SCYTHE Mugen2 Rev. B SCMG-2100 Cooler SCYTHE Yasya SCYS-1000 Cooler ZALMAN CNPS10X Flex Cooler ZALMAN CNPS10X Performa Cooler ZALMAN CNPS10X Quiet ZALMAN CNPS10X Flex, 133 Anything that you guys would recommend from the list. All of those are tower coolers. BTW. since I don't plan to overclock in the near future. Would if be sufficient to use some massive passive cooler like ZALMAN CNPS10X Flex, 133 ? Another update: This Scythe Katana 3 is a tower cooler and it's cheap compared to others from the list above. Judging by this review: http://www.silentpcreview.com/article957-page1.html it seems that it is very quiet too. Also, it should better work with my two 120mm case fans which would pull the hot air from the case.
