[quote=mastrer1000][quote=Luther3000]Pretty sure I tried to put it in the other way around at first and it wouldn't click into place. Does it make a difference which way around it is?[/quote] I have that case too and my drive fits in the other way around. Your cable managment could also use some work, but you might as well do that another time. @Searz: I missed your post before, seems like I was wrong. I didn't know there were IPS screens that had this kind of performance.[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=Luther3000]Does it make a difference which way around it is?[/quote] Unlikely. I've just never seen a single case mounting them like that before, and I've seen a lot of creative mounting options.[/quote]

[quote=Luther3000]I turned it around anyways just to be on the safe side. I did work on the cables a bit more after that photo was taken, but yeah I dunno, I was having trouble thinking of a better way to route them and things still ended up kind of a clusterfuck by the PSU.[/quote]

Pull as much of every cable as possible there and secure them with zipties. I know your case has not really a lot of space there, so you will prohably have to spread them out a bit.[/quote]

[quote=Joxuu]I have stumbled upon a problem. My pc has Samsung 120GB SSD EVO 850 and 500GB Seagate Barracuda HDD. Obviously it's better idea to save games that require lots'f of storage to HDD so I've done just that. Problem is this: whenever I run a game from HDD, my fan (processor cooler/fan I got when I bought i5 2500k) goes from regular ~30% speed up to +60% so the fan makes a lot of noise which is annoying. Any ideas? I guess I could default the fan speed to 30% but I'm afraid that might cause overheating or something.[/quote]

[quote=mastrer1000]has this always been occuring or has it started recently? If it is the latter, do you know anything that you have changed that might have something to do with it?[/quote]

I.e. check temperatures etc. I'm wondering if it's simply because the games are more intensive and therefore stress your CPU more, causing it to heat up and the fan speed to ramp up.[/quote]

[quote=Embracing]didnt notice you replied so excuse the late response but [quote=Searz] Recording program and settings?[/quote] XSplit, 1080p 30 fps bit rate is 2000 (dont think the issue is with network though b/c my other friend streaming on campus internet doesn't have issues with this setting)[/quote]
