[The new and the old rig!]

Welcome to the forums mate!

Nice build's but i like your Level 10 build more though haha...

Do you have interior pictures with the side panel off on your GT?

[Project 2501 Build Log.]

The 650ti isn't SLI compatible, so next year I get two cards, probably two GXT 980's, unless something newer comes out.

Oh, i thought 650Ti was SLI compatible, or that must be the boost version

[Commander G series Owner's Club]

This thread is dedicated to the Thermaltake Commander G Series!

Post your photo of your Commander G Series chassis to join the club!! 

 

 

 

Commander G series is the new gaming budget case series, designed for users who need a large interior space for high-end hardware and expansion while having a conservative budget. Like all Thermaltake gaming cases, Commander G series is designed to ease system builds, it comes with standard features like the tool-free drive bay design, removable drive cage, multiple fans mounting options and the support for internal and external liquid cooling solution and advance cable management.

 

Enthusiast Design

eSPORTS look front bezel along with the spirit “Space is of the Essence” in mind by incorporating an outsize body structure with full black convex and perforated panel design to provide a vast interior space for the ultimate aeration and extreme high-end hardware components compatibility. Build with a windowed side panel, an eye catching spot not to get attention on!

[What do I need to buy to fit another IDE drive in an Elements S chassis?]

Hi Andy,

 

Slide in assembly sounds almost foolproof ;-)

 

Are those standard drive screws (which I have to hand) or a special part?

 

If they're a specific item what's the part number?

 

Thanks,

sdf

Hello Sdf, 

 

They come with the case, there should be quite a few of them

[Water 3.0 Series owners club]

Where can I download the drivers for the 3.0 Extreme, just finished my build and the disk will not install.  All my other drivers have installed with no issues except this one.

Hello HappyBuddhaman, 

 

Give this link a try

[What do I need to buy to fit another IDE drive in an Elements S chassis?]

I've got an Element S Chassis + 960W PSU with 2x1TB HDD plus 1x64GB Flash drive.

 

I've also got a 2TB drive left over from a defunct PVR that I'd like to fit.

 

I've had the side off and there's plenty of room in the drive bay and what look like spare IDE connectors but no caddys for fitting extra drives.

 

My questions:

• Where can I get hold of a suitable caddy to hold the drive, and what's the part number I should be looking for?
• Is there anything else I need to consider?

 

I won't be offended if you assume I know nothing about PC internals.

 

Cheers,

sdf

Hello sdf

 

The drive bay is actually quite special on this case, please check the below picture for details

After installing them you can slide your drive straight into the drive bay

[my Chaser A31 build]

Nice build!

[Project 2501 Build Log.]

Wow, that's very nice man! the fan LED's go very well with your keyboard! ditch the 650ti? what you going to get instead? or will you be SLi'ing the Ti's

[What are you going to be playing or building this weekend?]

heroes of the storm, world of warcraft

[Do you install your PSU facing up or down? whats your choice?]

I face mine down too, to draw cold air from outside but only if there is a dust filter though. 

[Commander MS-I Snow Edition]

Well i guess your PSU could be running near max and dumping out a lot of excess heat.

Anyway my cards used to  run around about 85 - 90C on air when i first started mining, then i changed the thermal paste and it dropped my temps to about 70- 75 so i think the easiest fix is to change the thermal paste though with some company's it might void your warranty so be careful.

[The Anime/Manga Thread]

I used to watch Naruto! but i stopped after the 2nd or 3rd season...

Other anime i used to watch were Pokemon and Dragon Ball z which were on every morning before school!

[-Do you prefer the bells and whistles in your Rig or just performance.]

I like my computers the same way I like my cars.

Done up exterior and engine modified for performance.

Basically a rig with a nice body and runs at its best (no flashy lights).

[Thermaltake V71 Fire Honeycomb mod]

Ah my mistake, yeh it makes sense to put primer on first to get the color you want... now you got me curious on what color your indenting to paint

anyway looking forward to seeing your build progress! will put this thread on follow

[Commander MS-I Snow Edition]

Yeh, that's a big problem with 2 or more cards... when u sandwich the cards like that and your not using a blower type cooler all the heat just gets spread around your case.

When i was running my 280x x 3 on air it was impossible to keep the temps down on the lower cards.. what i found helpful is to have a fan at the front of the cards pushing air directly between the cards.. doesn't look the best, but it works!

[Thermaltake V71 Fire Honeycomb mod]

Hello Renegade and Welcome to the forums!

Looks like your off to a good start on your mod, will you be going for the full white look?

Regards to some of the questions on Core V71, we actually have an owners club you might want to check out.

Also, for spare parts i think you can contact our Australia & NZ team. if they have any spares they should be able to help you out!

[Van's Building a PC!]

looking forward to seeing the progress Van, good luck on the build!!

[Commander MS-I Snow Edition]

Well if it works for you, that's good man! 

Seems like you have utilized the interior of your case very well ! 

[Silence optimized builds anyone?]

Hello CareFactorOver9000, 

 

Well the sound dampening material built in would slightly effect the temperatures, but the difference is minimal.

The trick would to be to run high quality fans with plenty of airflow

Its really up to the user to weigh in what they prefer in a build and what the build is for. 

For your second question regarding the egg carton shape, it actually works as a dampener with the foam material but at the same time it will help with echo reduction by scattering sound waves using the "egg carton shape"

[Mini Office Setup]

Wow, very clean setup!!

I have a Tt dude watching me work too haha !! 

[Core V71 Owner's Club]

Nice build Drevni! 

 

BTW did you paint the front panel white? looks quite cool
