haha sounds good man, you still use yahoo? ahh right i see and yer sometimes once the thermal paste starts to dry up it can glue things to it, i normally use artic cooling mx-2 or mx-4 paste on my stuff. ahh right yer i take mine outside every now and then and give it a blast with some compressed air although maybe not as often as i should
well you plugged it all in to start with so not really much different this time lol. when i do my cable management in cases i just pick one wire and get that one sorted out and neat, then move to the next one until they are all in there the best they can be. at the of the day from what i remember you could not make it any worse lol so if i was you id just give it ago but photos is a must lol
yer some times you just have to say sod it lol. thats not to bad was that for a brand new build or an upgrade? if i was you id get a samsung ssd drive, i will be using samsung ssd drive in my build as the controller seems a lot better than the sandforce one and they have great reviews. 850 psu seems pretty high imo. its very doubtful you would pay for much let alone that lol[DOUBLEPOST=1405360373][/DOUBLEPOST]Had a few small bit turn up today
Two sata 3 cables and a nickel fillport
Also made a start on sorting the panels to cover the interior of the pc area
Area set measured out and with second layer of chemical release agent applied
Fourth coat of wax release agent applied
Gel coat applied and first layer reinforcement of 200g 2/2 twill weave carbon fibre laid up (I forgot to get photos of the gel coat on its own although its nothing special)
Third backing layer laid up of FIA grade 200g plain weave carbon fibre
Peal ply, infusion mesh and vacuum ports added
Bagging film and vacuum hoses added
Leak testing for loss of vacuum. Using a pair of mole grips to clamp off the vacuum bag from catch pot as I could not find the other clamp in all the mess
Infusion process done, lines clamped off and removed from catch pot and vacuum pump
Also not the other vacuum line clamp which I did find in the end
Also a very short video as some nice person was at the door so I had to stop for a second and forgot to take another
This panel is going to become the bottom panel in the top part of the pc area so it will sit under the motherboard.
Not sure what i should do with the side panels as yet.
1: - go with the carbon again, although this might make it pretty dark in there
2: - use white Perspex sheet on the side
3: - use mirrored Perspex sheet on the side
4: - use Alufibre for the side panel (also known as white carbon fibre)
Not sure which option would be/work better so any thoughts on this would be good
