I had something similar. While it does lower temp by bringing is cool air from outside, I ended up not using it for 2 reasons: 1) It's not as easy as I thought to route the duct inside my case, I ended up having to cut it shorter. 2) It's noisy from the turbulance of the moving air on the duct...

It was just sold earlier. Sorry I just had the chance to update the thread.

bump... btw, this is not the slimline model

price reduced bump..

PRICE LOWERED!!! Hi folks, I'm converting to SATA and selling the last of my SCSI card/drive: Maxtor 10K IV U320 73GB SCSI drive. 80 pin SCA connector (80pin-68pin adapter included). $115 shipped. This is a white box OEM drive, no Maxtor label on the drive but the drive id on Windows...

I think Fry's has price adjustment policy for something bought that recently.

I have a red one. But i don't have the box or the screws anymore. $10 shipped if you are in the continental US or come pick it up if you are in San Jose CA. I also have a 120mm Sunon fan that is wired at the molex to run at 5V. Not sure what is the cfm/db ratings for that one. PM me if you are...

Yeah, I think 2 business day after payment should be the expected norm unless there is special conversation between the two parties. A lot of the excuses I've seen is that the item is still installed on a system and needs to wait for replacement. How lame is that? Once the item is listed, the...

If you want to do a quick test, you can set the 'EnableBigLBA' bit in the registry like described here. You should still do install the service pack for real use though.

According to storagereview's tests, no 7200RPM drive beat the Raptor (36GB platters) on transfer tests. When transferring from the outer side of the platter, the best 7200RPM drives (100GB platters) could approach the Raptor but from the inner side, the Raptor has clear major advantage. Even...

While PCI-X is definitely nice (NCCH-DL has 2 PCI-X 64bit/66mhz slots), the southbridge and northbridge of these i875p boards (ie. PC-DL and NCCH-DL) is only connected by a 266MBps. Much of the PCI-X bandwidth is wasted on these boards especially since it needs to share with the non-PCI devices...

I have had good luck with Mushkin RAM in general and in this case the PC3200 Valueram variety. I am not really into faster timings and my PC-DL can't supply more than 2.5V for the RAM anyway (again there is a mod for getting around that but I am not too keen on doing it either). The forum at...

If you get the d1 stepping Xeons (sl6xk), there's a pretty good chance you can get 3ghz+ if you do the voltage mod. The best pair I have could do 3.225ghz (215x15) with 1.6v vcore doing 4 instances of mprime on linux or 2 instances of prime95 on win2k (no ht). But I have since gone back to...
