Title: Mod bug is biting me in the ass
Post by: C5Allroad on Tue, 31 May 2016, 17:48:31: So I've got a plebware x51(freshman self thought it was a good idea)

I haven't followed computer news until this week. And I've learned that the 970 draws 145w of powah. This is tempting because my 660 draws 140w and I have some headroom. But mod bug is biting me now for the fact that I have a handy dandy dremel and want moar fans.

But then I've got an ubuntu partition and I'm all over the place learning linux. Who needs the outside world. Screw all that.

No female ever visits the Tp4-CommandCenter anyways..

But I have a kitty kat. No bueno.
Now, if it were mounted somewhere I know he wouldn't go, I wouldn't worry. Now you've got me wanting to experiment with open case vs a hole with a mesh guard. Don't care for leds anyway.

Conky is just system monitoring software. I think there is a Conky Manager package that does all the configuring for you but it wouldn't take with my older hardware so I have to configure it all myself. Nothing that will brick an OS AFAIK.

Post by: tp4tissue on Tue, 31 May 2016, 18:09:13: Best way to do this, is to get one of those $20 corsair cases..

Then just swap everything in..

I don't think cutting into the x51 case is a good idea.. it's got a plastic panel outside the inner metal panel, the cut's gonna look crummy if you do this with a dremel..
