New rig under 75k

[sharang.d]

IMO A good TIM is also equally required with an aftermarket cooler to bring the temp down. I use MX-2 with EVO and my core temp shown by CORE TEMP is hovering at 40 to 44 idle, 50 at most under PRIME95 10 mins in this hot summer of kolkata.

I think even the best aftermarket air cooler cannot keep the CPU temp below the ambience. Correct me if i am wrong.

regarding mobo i think u should listen to your heart and not to your brain.

I don't think I'll spend 500 bucks more on a thermal paste coz u get one anyway in the package of the Cooler..

Any help regarding this?

I need help regarding case fans.. for Corsair Carbide 400R. If i buy 4x 120/140mm fans (2x top + 2x side) would i need a fan controller as well? Is there any way to plug two fan wires into one Motherboard fan controller using some connector or anything?

 

[sumonpathak]

^^fan controller is not needed.
how is the config?

 

[sharang.d]

Yeah it is cool. Almost similar to what I'm lookin for. Flipkart sells stuff very overpriced tho
If fan controller is not needed then where do I plug in the fans?

The Case already has 3 fans by default. If I wana install 4 more fans where do I plug them in? The motherboard has only 4 system fan headers.

 

[sumonpathak]

^^use 3pin to 4pin molex converter...
Street prices should be lower.

 

[sharang.d]

Can u explain in depth please? Where do I plug in the fan wires if all the headers on the motherboard are already used?

 

[avichandana20000]

with the fan u will get a connector whose one side has a 3 pin and other side a molex connector. Connect the fan to the 3 pin side and the molex side to the molex of PSU.

Oh thanks for that..

1) If the case fans are to be connected directly to the PSU then what is supposed to be connected to the system fan headers on the motherboard?

2) The molex side has to be plugged into the red-boxed connector of the PSU?
See image below

3) What other peripherals other than these fans are to be plugged into the 4 pin peripheral plug/s of the PSU?

Thanks in advance

 

[sumonpathak]

1.u can connect the system fans to motherboard headers too...there is no hard and fast rule.
2.YES
3.Anything dat uses 4 pin molex as power

1) How do I connect the system fans to the motherboard headers if they only have the molex connector and not the one that goes in the motherboard headers?

2) Thanks

3) I'm just asking so I can calculate how many fans i can accommodate.
So far I can only think of HDDs, DVD ROM, fans. Anything else?

 

[sumonpathak]

1.Then u cannot.
2.nothing i can think about right now.

 

[sharang.d]

Okay.. can u suggest any value for money cheap 120/140mm case fans? Plain black.. not LED coz I wana keep the cost as low as possible.

 

[sumonpathak]

what i can think of is CM silent series...not really worth it...

[sumonpathak]

Need suggestions on a good UPS solution. Should give at least 5-10 mins backup to all these components together. I'm not mentioning a budget because I don't know the price range for UPS. Suggest me a UPS and it's price please. Thank you!

APC 1.1 kva costs around 4.5k.

 

[sharang.d]

^ Will it suffice to power all the components I mentioned? How much time?
Also can you point me towards a link about what to look for in a UPS... How to know how many inputs are supported n all..

Are there any good brands when it comes to UPS?
Also can you link me to the UPS you're suggesting?

BUMP!
