when moving some wires inside my case my thumb stopped my vantec aeroflow at 5600rpm... that was NOT a pretty site... it even broke my nail and i think went atleast 2 layers deep into my skin

You never know. Remember my horror story about the Delta 7K?

sapasion, where did u get those 2 fans under ur vid card that takes up one of the pci slots, did u manually put that together or was it made like that?

Here is my P4 with an Ti4200 from A WHILE back:

I have a Leadtek Ti4200 with my 3000+... I never benchmarked it and probably never will. It takes me about 5 hours to get a good score

**Thunderbird1GHz** · 07-26-2003, 05:03 AM

nice score, but thats 3.3GHz of power there against 2.14GHz on my side. also with the fan, how hard is it to leave the safety metal grill while still fitting the fan onto the heatsink?

**Alientank** · 07-26-2003, 01:55 PM

My comp isn't all together yet but I got an slk-900 and a tornado 92 mm fan. I powered it on just to see how loud it was. Honestly wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

**Thunderbird1GHz** · 07-26-2003, 05:45 PM

wow that was fast just got both the heatsink and fan but boy I have to remove the entire mobo and put it back! man itll take 3 hours easy and I hope I do it right

You can use a thin finger guard like the ones that come with the TT fans.

The wire clips hold the guard and the fan.

3 hours?!?!? Jesus, what takes you so long?!?!

**Alientank** · 07-27-2003, 01:40 PM

Took me an hour to get my slk-900 on. Let me tell you, spring loaded bolts are a WHORE. Also the clips that hold the fan down just barely go over the top of the fan and they are a little bent. Regardless it holds it tight and that fan moves A LOT of air!

**bldegle2** · 07-29-2003, 06:44 PM

curious, as you haven't posted new any CPU overclockage yet.

wondering.

Man... You people are SLOW!!!!!

I mount my complete #2 setup in about an 1... From a complete stripped down setup.. Heatsink, cpu.. Everything brand new and even unpackaging them....

It taken me maybe 5 minutes to install the SLK-900

Easy! I told you you probably tighten that first bolt to far down and that was why it was a pain in the arse getting the second on in place!
