Not sure if people have seen this (I certainly hadn't) so take a look at some of those old fans. http://www.ocshoot.no/revhack.htm
i dont think any of their soldering is on show, and that that is isn't bad.... but i have to disagree with them saying a 3-pin header is a molex connector. AFAIK, a molex is a standard 4-pin PSU connector, and the 3-pin one is NOT a molex. if i'm wrong someone please correct me Atar
No, I'm in total agreement with you. I had to double take when I saw it too, so I did some research and the power connectors are indeed listed as Molexes, so we're in the clear. Not the first time I've seen wildy incorrect information, look at what http://www.3dcool.com have to say about top exhaust fans: Q.) Why don't you install a top fan? A.) Anyone selling a case with a top fan never tested for airflow. Top fans disrupt airflow and increase temperatures. You never want a top fan under any scenario! Mmm.. bold statement
sorry to backtrack KNA, but i've just been researching myself and Molex are, like, the 3rd largest supplier of electronic interconnects on the planet and as such i guess they make BOTH kind of parts.. molex isnt a connector type, it's a BRAND.... http://www.molex.com
I did actually know that (no, honest ) but I kinda looked at it in the way that Vacuum Cleaners are called Hoovers and Velcro is called, well Velcro.. they're mostly well known for the power connectors. So we're *all* right, hurrah.
and about OCShoot..... in the Tweak windows section... so if i have 1 gig of ram i'm gonna have a 2.5 gig VRam file??? I think NOT. my reccommendation is to have enought VRam to make up 512 meg altogether... unless you do loads of **** at once, in which case i'd make it 768 meg altogether. ... and then you're ****ED if you want to get into safe mode.... but the rest of the schizz i agree with
