My Lancool K62 Cabinet - Unboxing and Installation

[Skud]

Just couldn't understand one thing: The Seagate 7200rpm 500gb hdd is continuously showing 2C lesser temp than WD Green 2tb/500gb drives!!!

WTF!!!!!!!!!

 

[S_V]

Seagate 500GB are very cool compared to their latter brothers.

 

[Tech.Masti]

sorry, couldn't get you...

i mean temp differences are good, it working really good...... this will help you to cool more your cpu in this hot summer..... sorry for my bad english

 

[Skud]

OK, OK, I get you, No Probs.

Yeah, temps are good and pretty constant.

Superb Build Man Really great one.

Which TV Tuner you have, looks a bit older type to me in the pic. Is it Compro ?

I prefer solid steel over aluminum cases. Many users said it and so will I.

I am almost done with 600T writeup and honestly fans on the top should between the mesh and the actual frame of the case, just like this one. If this case was in during CM690 then this would have an instant choice by many.

Actually got it free recently. Its Hauppauge WinTV PVR 150 with no remote or anything. Still searching for a good software for viewing and recording TV. Can you please recommend some?

And yes, its pretty old.

Actually the cabinet is fairly old model. Its one of the 2009 batch. Probably previously not available in India.

You can capture using Virtual Dub in AVI file format.

Virtualdub download (at SourceForge) <----- Download from here.

All the other mpeg2 recorders available online have one or more issues with tv tuner cards, so its always best way to go with Virtual Dub. If you can find it somewhere on net, get PICVideo Mjpeg codec so that the file size of captured files does not go huge as is the case with uncompressed AVIs.

For TV Viewing purposes, you can use Chris TV Lite.

These are software which can monitor and log temperatures. One is HWMonitor and the other taken by HWInfo. Google for it.

[Skud]

[Riddick]

It's working properly. Just typing this while listening to Duran Duran, no problems there. That's the best thing I have found with this case, there's quite a few problems when it was initially introduced (crack at side panel windows, audio port etc.) and almost all of them have been taken care of. Only awkward thing that's left unchanged is the 3 pin HDD LED activity wire. But then nothing's perfect in the world.
