Asus Terminator - any fans ?
Just finished a T2 build with a 2.4 GHz Celeron, 512 MB RAM, combo
DVD-CDRW, and an 80 gig HD. System went together very smoothly. After trying the Thermaltake cooler, I took it out and used the stock Intel cooler which seems much quieter. The fans are on auto and there doesn't seem to be too much up and down cycling. So far so good. Ritchie Stephenson wrote: "zero" wrote in message ... a few questions if i may :- 1) the bay panels - they press against your own drive doors to open cdrw for example ? Yes, the eject button is directly in line with CD drive, only thing is the draw has to be pushed to get it back in, button bot accessable. 2) the cpu set-up - comes with a thermaltake fan i think - can you use your own I use the one which came with the P4 Prescott Processor, Thermaltake one is very noisy. 3) any details on the cooling and noise levels esp. - hear it may "hunt" as in you can hear it getting louder and slower depending on heat level I switched the Auto fan control off in the Bios, noise was annoying going up and down all the time, used a Zalman fan speed controller and set rear fan to 2000 rpm. 4) is there any asus software provided to show cpu temp etc. ? Comes with Asus Probe software to monitor temp,fans and voltage. thanks for your help It is a very nice bit of kit, can also be used as a radio/CD player without booting to the operating system and wouldn't look a-miss in a living room.
