Re: RMA's. Majority of the time I've been fortunate enough to send it back via the retailer, who have sorted me out with a pre paid label.
Or I've sent it via work and not paid for packaging
Cheeky!

I actually really like the orientation of the case like this, shame about the feet on the side, but it looks good
BMW M4; S1000 RR
Does not look ideal for cooling
Not sure how much of an affect of would have on cooling, plus most the case fans will be where the main components are, the front section
I see your point tho

^^ Have you mounted the PSU differently? Laying the 540 down like that will cover the PSU intake I think.
Not a major issue really just something to keep in mind.

I have more case feet under it so the PSU is getting some air from the bottom. It has crossed my mind that it's probably not getting enough though so I'll probably stand it back in the normal position to be honest. It just looks cool at night when you can "peer" into the top with the red lights and all the components on show

I have my 540 on my desk like a boss. My girlfriend saw it and was like "wow that's massive, will that fit under the desk?"
I told her it was staying put and she was like "oh ok. You know best I guess"
I wish haha.

Wish I had a big enough desk mate and I would do the same
I'm in the loft at the moment so can't get anything too large up the stairs. When I finally get round to buying my own house I will get a new desk then

Yeah so, I'm ready for summer benchmarking.

LMFAO! I could do with that level of cooling on my new engine build! I have visions of this creating enough lift to take off...
Evo 5 RS
It should allow me to push my reference Ti past most Classified clocks through futuremark. The fans are 1900rpm
Haha that's mad
What temps are you running now?

Best place for it, realised my desk wasn't big enough but luckily found a matching side-table thing, fits near enough

We have very similar setups. Same mouse, keyboard, case and fan controller.
Seen the new Sensei Wireless? Looks interesting but at £135 I think I'll pass. :clown:
Wireless is an immediate no for me I've had wireless before and never would again - you just cant get the refresh rate you require (often had lag too with it), and usually the batteries run out at the worst of time
Ahhh, you have an Aquaero 5 XT too? Props, not seen anyone else with one so far they're fantastic!

That's a great setup, Mike. I look forward to seeing the revised benchmark figures...
Evo 5 RS
waiting on the new overhead correcting drivers being released tomorrow to do any of that...
But temps sure are good GPU temps after a couple rounds of Titanfall. Barely breaking ambient.

bit OT but what would my pc roughly be worth? can't remember what i paid for the bits lol
cooler master 130 case(mini itx)

corsair hydro h80 cpu cooler
8GB corsair vengance ram
msi twin frozr nvidia 660 graphics card
2TB wd hard drive

In parts yeah. Might take you a while to sell it as one box.
I'm considering replacing my Intel X25v - If you can't remember what one of those is, it's because it's ancient. What's the current low-down on budget SSDs?
Best bang for buck around the 128GB mark?
On the face of it the Sandisk X110 has by far the highest read/write but what are benchmarks revealing about all the specs that aren't printed on the side of the box? Very tempting to assume the 550/440 MB/s Sandisk would still blitz the ancient Intel (something like 200/100 MB/s maybe) even if the controllers etc. are rubbish compared to the cheaper Intel/Crucial/etc.
Quite funny really thinking back 7 or so years. All the hoo-hah at the time that SSDs would never catch on because they were unreliable, the drives would need to be perma-backed-up, they'd only last 2 years and to top it all off cost £4/GB. Well it's still going strong.

Samsung 840 Evo IMO. Although, I would highly suggest getting 250GB instead of 120GB tbh.
120GB - £69 - http://www.ebuyer.com/539151-samsun...ium=products&gclid=CKjf54me470CFVLItAodRXMAlg
250GB - £119 - http://www.ebuyer.com/539153-samsung-250gb-ssd-840-evo-ssd-only-mz-7te250bw
The 250GB has faster write speeds than the 120.

I'd go with the Samsungs also (I've got a few of them), they are cheaper on Amazon though.

Thanks for the suggestion & links.
Think I'll go with the 120 on the basis of cost. OS is kept very very clean & I'm used to having everything else on a conventional drive anyway.
Never been a fan of dumping 15GB worth of Far Cry on an SSD just for the sake of quicker load screens anyway.
BMW M4; S1000 RR
Right. But the 120 is £60 isn't it? For the extra £40 to double your storage it's rude not to! The fact it's got faster write speeds is the nail in the coffin IMO.
And a Nissan GTR is only about 40% more than a 318d once you tick a few options :rasp:
I agree it represents better value for money, but 120GB & a write speed that is 12x faster than my current SSD is adequate.
I hope that doesn't come across as typical CS "asking for advice and ignoring it" - I'm very grateful of not having to pour over reviews at the usual European/US sites and then spend ages sourcing the particular drive they recommend. The 840 Evo definitely seems the way forward, but I think the 120 suits my needs better than the 240.

No problem dude I know what you mean.
