wow, about that Full Tower thing, I am building almost the exact same thing you described.
Inwin Q500
SA6R + RAID https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
512 ram
dvd
cdrom
cdburner
180mm blowhole on top
120 fan on side blowing in on CPU
etc, etc.....
"180" blowhole on top??? Are you smelting steel inside that case???? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ A 120 on top makes for quite a blowhole---if you're overclocking the CPU and vid card, it would come in handy. Some folks have put 120's on the side panel--a bit of overkill in my opinion---80's would be sufficient for most systems. A 120 intake in the front though is desirable. Make sure you're bringing IN a little more air than what is being exhausted; better for the system.
Recommend aluminum or foam filters on all intake fans and tape up any vents on the side panel or rear that aren't necessary. Would be interested in seeing some pics when you're through, viper0070. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Another thought--having a DVD and a regular CD-ROM may be overkill. A DVD-ROM probably is the better choice---reads CDs faster than a regular CD-ROM. (i.e. DVD 1x reads files faster than a CD-ROM 8x and on up in that manner). Would free up a bay for other stuff. (Bay cooler, digtal doc panel, audio panel, tape backup, whatever).

That is a dissertation I think should have been brought up earlier. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Maybe you did, oh well. Live and learn. https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
180, why most vacumn cleaners do not pull that much mercury.

Train: perhaps you're right; I don't use DVD myself. Don't care to "Watch movies while you work!". https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Most folks would only be able to detect subtle differences in speed anyway. Having both though seems redundant to me however; better to free up a bay.
Free up a bay, you bet, watch movies, very very seldom. Can not hear them and I get aggrivated. So, I leave them alone.
Still what you said above, I found very informative. Thanks.

Look familiar? You all kept it going.
Viper, They are psychic somewhat.
Let's see, if we extend the fan shaft on top of the computer and add three 4ft blades and a small one on the back........ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ https://discussions.virtualdr.com/ Whadyado with the QoH or is she up to some devilish computer mod. LOL

That is the service that I got from AOL [all outs luck] alright.
QOH pulled a disappearing act, that is for sure. I had heard the ulead graphics program was rough, but did not think it to be that bad. Probably having to fdisk and partition her harddrive as it seems that program needs its own partition for a swap file. Or something to that nature.

I was wondering what happened to her... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Perhaps on a modding frenzy? I know how it is....time stands still....beads of sweat your only companions....wires and LEDs up to your neck. Mental focus only on one goal..."get it done...get it done..get it done..." And THAT's just the planning stage.... https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
Amen on the planning phase.
Look ma no hair! [almost to me collar https://discussions.virtualdr.com/]

So ya missed me did ya ? https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
I am working on something. You are on the money Train.
Trying to figure out these graphic programs I never had the room or RAM for on OLD.
I can't draw with this mouse ! https://discussions.virtualdr.com/It's like signing for the UPS man on his little computerized tablet. Hand/eye coordination.
Read the fine print in the manual...."Takes approximately 5 years to master the mouse movements for this program." https://discussions.virtualdr.com/
So, with various problems she might have in those five years means we may see her in July of '06. Shore gonna be quiet 'round here fur a spell ain't it? LOL Yeah buddie.
