Silverstone Temjin 5 (TJ05)

     The Silverstone Temjin 5 is a hybrid combination of form and function.  Taking a mini-server style steel chassis with aluminum wave style faceplate and combining it with a glossy enthusiast finish, Silverstone offers up the best of both worlds.  Featuring lots of room for expansion, an acrylic side Window, Back lit blue front LCD with fan control, and a tooless design. This extended ATX case could be the perfect gaming rig, Overclocking rig or just your clans own mini-server.  It''s high quality finish and roomy interior defy you to pin it to a category.

OCZ EL DDR PC-3500 Gold GX

    OCZ is a name synonymous with performance and when it comes to Memory they are also synonymous with overclockability.  OCZ Technology introduces the EL PC-3500 Gold Gamer eXtreme Series as the latest addition to the Gold Series line of Memory sticks.  These two 512mb DDR 433 duel channel memory sticks come with super tight timings and high end performance all under a “lifetime warranty”, even if overclocked.  Looking for an upgrade?  With special features like OCZ’s “Extended Voltage protection” and “Ultra Low Noise” it’s hard not to seriously think about making the next memory upgrade choice OCZ.

Fatal1ty FS-V7

    In this review we will look at the Zalman Fatal1ty FS-V7 Graphics Card cooler.  The Fatal1ty FS-V7 is a two slot copper cooler marketed toward gamers and PC enthusiast alike: with Red Copper fins, Anodized RAM sinks, and a Red LED fan it definitely has the bling appeal.  It also comes with the ability to run on 12v in "Performance Mode" as well as a 5v "Quiet Mode" for those of you audiophiles who are gamers as well.

But does this cooler have what it takes to cool the High Clock, High Heat GPU cores out today.  That''''s exactly what I intended to find out.  Read along as I try out the FS-V7''''s cooling capabilities against an X1800XTPE''''s stock 2-slot cooling solution.

Atomic LANbomb (Page 1)

Worklog Main

Page ( 1 )

    This is my first actual mod. I started out with a bare bones SOYO K7 ADA v1.0 with XP1700+ proc. I decided one day that my power supply sucked (which it did) and I needed a new one. I went to best buy to pic up one and saw that the smart power 350w cost the same as the LANBOY with a smartblue 350w inside.   The case being the greater value I said "the heck with it" and bought it.

    I went home swapped everything out and decided that the blue light on the PSU was to dim. So I bought a blue CCFL. Then I moved on to the 4 blue LED fans and then the next thing I know I added: , Fan Grills, Blue UV Rounded Cables, UV CCFL and Misc. other UV items. I also work at a sign shop so I decided I needed some window applique.( I Know its a strange mix of Atomic and Radioactive, but note the cool bomb in the center) of the radioactive symbol. I also created my own lighted badge with super bright LED and acrylic. I still want to do so much more. Unfortunately this is supposed to be my wifes computer I built for her to surf the web on.  So I decided to leave it alone and move on to the UTMod.  I still occasionally experiment with mods on her PC, but for the most part it has been left in peace.
