    Enclosure Cooler Master updates Elite 110

    I was checking Cooler Master's site for Elite 130 & 110 dimensions and I find there is a new revision to the 110. Anyone know the difference? http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mini-itx/elite110a/ http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mini-itx/elite110/

    Completed The MI-6 Microtower Case: Performance in 6.7L

    I am curious, I believe the original idea had vent holes in the front for the GPU exhaust. Would the temps have decreased if the vents were still present? I didn't read the entirety of the other forum, but I did see where it was removed partially because of costing...

    Origin of your nickname

    My screen name is a Hopi word for a/the "burden of weight". I love the Native American history and wanted something different since a few people were using my older screen name since it was something common. I was using another Hopi word as well, but this one stuck better.

    Hello all!

    I didn't test, but it was enabled when I installed my 1060. Valley was reporting both Intel & Nvidia on the benchmark and I got confused. I forgot I resettedthe BIOS when I upgraded from the i3 to the i5, but forgot about this option afterwards. It is now disabled.

    Hello all!

    Also, reduced power would mean lower temperatures, even slightly. I am still testing this configuration out, but so far I put it put it back to default (Turbo on, Power target back to normal), since it wasn't making too much of a difference.

    Production Lazer3D - LZ XTD - Alternative Designs

    Thanks. That makes sense for the CPU cooler height. I may be looking at the LZ7 then.

    I am liking the third design as well, as it is almost exact to my set up currently (http://i.imgur.com/DprQiKv.jpg). What is the estimated CPU cooler height? Also where could drives be mounted? The cooler I am using is the Noctua NH-L12 which states it has a height of 66mm without the top...

    Hello all!

    No, my GTX 970 had coil whine and this wasn't it. It was a weird noise that also happened when the fans turned on from being at 0rpm if I recall. I kept the fan running and reduced the power/temp target and no more issue for now... Here is the noise and resolution this person did per EVGA:

    Hello all!

    This before I've turned off the Intel Turbo boost and reduced the GPU temp target to 70 C degrees. Note, CPUZ & HW monitor must have different timings on reading the current clocks... Also, I am not sure the ambient temperature... This is after the reduction. MB temps show 37/44C min/max on...
