  1. Hi guys Does anyone have experience in building split rims? I'm currently building some 2 piece rims (face and barrel are one piece and the lip is another) and i'm needing to seal them where the lip and barrel meet.. I've done a quick bit of research and people are saying to use a Silicone RTV sealant. Now I have no experience with this sort of stuff and don't really know what i'm looking at online, So just wondering if anyone could recommend a brand of seleant that might be decent to use. Thanks
  2. Hey guys, I'm back again. A month or so ago I bought a Fractal Design R4 case from a recommendation from someone in here. Along with that I also bought a Corsair H60 water cooler to replace my Gelid Tranquillo CPU fan as I had wanted to try water cooling for some time. It was running absolutely perfect (getting idle temps of roughly 27° - 30°) and anywhere between 40° - 50° when gaming and such until about 4 days ago, I'm now getting idle temps anywhere between 58° - 70° and while gaming (just Minecraft) it was getting up to 90°. Nothing had changed in the set up, The system, fans and radiator are completely dust free (cleared them with compressed air),all the cables are managed neatly and its in a nicely ventilated area. The only thing that I can think of is the fact I just stuck with the pre-applied thermal paste on the cooler instead of opting for a decent brand? Could this have anything to do with why i'm suddenly getting huge temperatures a month down the line? Anyone else get any other suggestions? If it helps its an -7-2600k and its not overclocked. Thanks
  3. Back again chaps, Building up on my previous posts of wanting a new case, Im currently tidying up my computer and throwing in a few updates on the way. Im looking at power supplies at the minute and im not all clued up on the differences between them and what will suit what in terms of watts etc... Im looking at the Corsair RM Series 650W at the minute because of the amount of good reviews it had, But its a little out of price, The same model in 550W is a fair amount cheaper, I was just wondering if I would likely to use over 550W on my current setup?? Im currently running: - i7 2600k 3.4GHz, not overlcocked - Asus p8p67 mobo - 8gb Corsair Xms RAM (4x2gb sticks) - Gefore GTX460 (will be upgrading sometime soonish) - 1 SSD - 1 HDD - DVD Drive So yeah, Was just wondering if I would be okay to save some money and buy the 550W version or the would I need to get the 650W one. And would just like some advice on any reasons why this power supply might now work with my setup. Many thanks in advance!!
  4. I do really like the look of the Shinobi, But if that is the case with the airflow I think I will give it a miss, Thanks for the heads up! Im loving the looks and spec of the R4, Great reviews on it too, Think im going to stretch my budget a bit and go for that, Thanks!
  5. Hey Guys I'm looking at getting a new case as its time to move on from one with coloured fans an so forth to a more clean / simple look as part of some upgrades i'm doing. So i'm looking at a nice clean simple case that can nicely fit an ATX board with plenty of room spare and room for some cable management behind the motherboard. The options I've been looking at are the Bitfenix Shinobi or the Corsair Carbide 200R. At the minute i'm swaying more towards the Carbide case as it comes with 2 pre installed fans (not an issue though as i've got some in my current case I can use) and the compact HDD bays. Just wondered if there are any other cases that some of you would recommend? Thanks
  6. He bought them from someone on the Club Lupo Facebook page, Got them for about £45. There Seat ones though, Not VW. Meant to say that your Lupo is looking nice too!
  7. I am indeed mate, Small world! Yeah I love the roof racks, Shame there my mates and not mine. Hes bought them for a Lupo he cant drive yet, So I have them in the mean time.
  8. Here's my Lupo, Just a 1L as its my first car. Im currently in the process of smoothing my front bumper, That's not going well though as the first attempt cracked when trying to fit it!
  9. Ive been toying with the idea of buying a camera for some time and think nows the best time for me get one. Never done anything photography related before so im just looking for something a beginner can use and some advice. What are peoples thoughts on a Cannon 400d?, seem to be pretty cheap on ebay.
