I want to do a challenge or two at the 4.5ghz first to see how the heat and stability handle before I start going higher. Just because I can do 40C stress testing for eight hours during the night doesn't mean it will be like that during the day when the house temp fluctuates. Good thing its getting cooler, one good thing about being so far up north.

So for kicks and giggles I booted up the GPU to full while the CPU was under full load, normally this isn't an issue but after work today I was surprised. My UPS decided to freak out and start alarming on overload...I know the batteries are fresh, just replaced them earlier this year, and I know the draw from the computer isn't that great even with the overclocking...
Finally after some trouble shooting (unplugging various things from and to the UPS), I turned to all knowing UTUBE! Turns out there is a fan that is malfunctioning in the UPS itself, so now I need to find a 24 volt two inch fan to replace the little rascle in there and I'll have my UPS back...lol
BTW running at 4.8GHZ at around 50C

NICE! Crank it up man!
Christmas present to myself, my old ups is only 540 volt and I was experiencing over voltage warnings when the Titan spun up for extended periods of time.
Any good Ideas on four pin case fans that are not 50 bucks each? I'm thinking two 140's up top to help the H100I and three 120s to replace the current three pin fans around the case.
****Didn't notice this before but I must've struck a good deal on cyber monday, that UPS was $160, I'm very glad I didn't wait to pay the regular price now at $323 youch!***

Fan selection is highly subjective, but to get things started, are you more interested in a quiet system or max/best cooling performance?Originally Posted by Sarge104
I'm really not looking for quiet fan, I'm really looking to see if anyone has any ideas on fans with high static pressure. I would love to stick a bunch of 90cfm fans on the case but if they can't push enough air in/out of the case its not worth it.
I'm still trying to get some dead spots figured out, with all the fans pushing the gpu is nice and cool but the top of the case where the water cooler is is warm. With the fans pulling air the gpu seems to really heat up. Currently have the bottom fans and water cooling fans pushing with the side and rear fans pulling to try and get rid of the dead spots but now I'm running into the flow issue.

Thanks for the link, looks like the 140's in the Xingmatek might do for top of the case. I just need to figure out what to put in the 120 slots now. Right now the cfm of the side, front, and rear fans is around 60 so I'm debating if I should keep a couple of that type for exhaust purposes.

Appreciate the info, the akasa looks like it is worth looking into for my 120mm slots. Probably have to wait after the holiday is over, the g/f seems intent to invite most the family over so need to stock up on the essentials...heheh.
