Re: What does everone have under the hood? Damn, German amazon is probably the worst place to buy stuff in germany, I just looked there and that PS costs 60€, wich means 80$. But you should maybe pay just a tiny little bit more and get the modular version, proper cable managment is always important and looks better if you have a sidepanel
Re: What does everone have under the hood? i have no window sidepanel, but i do have a sidepanel, everyone should actually, not good for your pc to turn it with the case open , also, not sure if a modular would fit in my case(even though its probably a good idea for me, since i have no cable management side, all the cables have to be on the same side of the case that the MB and such are)
Re: What does everone have under the hood? Why should it not fit? The cx600m is a cx600, the only difference is you can plug in and out the cables so you don't have them lying arround if you dont need them.
Re: What does everone have under the hood? aren't modular versions a little bit bigger than the normal version? EDIT: yeah they are: Non Modular: Product Dimensions: 5.5 x 5.9 x 3.4 inches ; 4.5 pounds Modular: Product Dimensions: 11.4 x 8.5 x 5.1 inches ; 3.6 pounds
Re: What does everone have under the hood? Just upgraded my GPU to an MSI Gaming Nvidia GeForce GTX 770 4gb card so I am so happy to be able to play never going below 30fps and mostly staying around 60fps. Rest of the specs: Intel LGA2011 Core I7 3960x @3.3ghz Corsair 120gb ssd WD Caviar Black 2TB HDD 64GB G.Skill Ram Windows 7 Thermaltake 1200w toughpower power supply and a coolermaster Haf x case.
Re: What does everone have under the hood? holy poop, what do you do that needs that much power? (if you just got it to have it, than lol, quite a bit overkill, dont you think? )
Re: What does everone have under the hood? For those rainy days, but in seriousness it all gets used in doing renders for games, video work, stuff in blender. maxing out games while still being smooth, and still being overkill.
Re: What does everone have under the hood? Even with all the crap talked about them, i have absolutely no problem running my 2012 Macbook Pro w/ a 750 Gb normal HD, Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB card, a 2.3 GHz Intel i7, and 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 ram.
Re: What does everone have under the hood? Most power supplies are slightly more energy efficient when only operating at 50% load instead of lets say 75% load. A 500W power supply current kicking out 400W would be doing so less efficiently than a 1000W power supply kicking out 400W. But I doubt the difference is enough for anyone to really care

Re: What does everone have under the hood? My laptops: Dell Latitude E6500 Core 2 Duo 2.5GHz @ 2.6GHz Nvidia Quadro NVS 160m overclocked 4GB DDR2 50GB SSD (Big games go on external HDD) 12 cell battery 1280x800 screen (Used to have 1920x1200 but I broke it..) Toshiba NB255-N250 (Netbook) Intel Atom 1.6GHz dual core Shitty Intel GMA 3150 1GB DDR2 160GB HDD (For my super compressed media) Then I have some broken laptops or laptops I just don't use: Dell Latitude D500 (Backlight shuts off after 20 seconds or so) Dell Latitude D505 (Working fine) Acer something (Working fine) Sharp PC-something (1987. Lost MS-DOS floppy.) Presario R2100 (No screen) I've had about 20+ laptops to date. (Most were broken or just old.)
Re: What does everone have under the hood? The fact that you have an Acer that works on any level amazes me....
Re: What does everone have under the hood? I never really used it but I do know that it has some problems. - - - Updated - - - I was looking through the picture I have on Photobucket (Been using it for years) and I came across a picture from the time my old laptop's GPU overheated:
Re: What does everone have under the hood? 52c isn... HOLY SHIT, what the heck did you do to that poor poor pc
Re: What does everone have under the hood? It was a glitch. The GPU did actually die of heat though.. (It didn't really overheat at all, the Quadro 135m was known for failing a lot.)
Re: What does everone have under the hood? that's nearly identical to mine except i've got an 8400gs video card and 4gb of ram. I'm also looking to upgrade as soon as the parts get here but not on as big of a budget. $260
Re: What does everone have under the hood? Are you truly that immature to think I care about this after so long? Please, stop this petty "ha, I win" bullcrap.
