It's a matter of eye focus for me. If you drag something from one screen to another, a different resolution is either going to be bigger or smaller print and it's just annoying.
 
Yeeeee Hawwww!

I tried a little cable management but not getting any help from the psu and short cables.

Mihir: I believe you did help me out. It runs great and cant wait to stick another 6950 in there next month.
 
There's no such thing as too many fans :o

Though he should probably mount the cooler so it's drawing air from the drive bays and exhausting out the back rather than taking warmer air from the GPU.
 
I also thought a vertical cooler would create lower temps but after a week of testing and ocing to 4.7, the horizontal setup is 11c lower. 84c was max after 1 hr of prime vertical setup and 73c was max horizontal. It must have something to do with the side fan intaking air directly to the front of the bottom cooler fan. Both are with Arctic Silver 5.
 
Here's my little setup. The best thing about it is the speakers. The computer runs great too. Temps don't go above 30c. Win 7. The monitor is soon to be scrap because it sucks and is slowly failing. No doubt the workstation will look much better with a new widescreen monitor.

It's amazing how much a big widescreen monitor does to your computer. When I got mine it felt like I had a new computer and it just looked so much better. After the initial glow I realized I was still running my crappy Dell though...
 
Dave, those are decent temps for your computer which seems to have virtually no airflow... If you would hook that up in a case with cable management, your temps would probably go way down.

Ehh, after looking at your specs, a new PSU would work a lot better. Surprised its still going with a 5570 on it.

Cable what?? No airflow? What chew talkin bout man you crazy? :P


In reality,

I thought the 5570 was supposed to have low power requirements. I'm still waiting for it to break so I can get my money back, or a replacement. And is airflow that important?
 
Dave, have you thought about getting a new keyboard? That one looks like they were selling it beside the Windows 95 standee. ;)
 
Pictures of my new build. Still have to buy an aftermarket CPU cooler, the hard drive was DOA (so I'm using an old 2.5" I had lying around) and I'm using an old HP 19" monitor until I can afford a new one but other than that it came out pretty good.
