| 856370 | 2010-02-10 23:15:00 | Im not sure why people are getting 80gb SSD. Win7+games will fit on a $240 40gb SSD then get a 1.5tB HDD ? Or is win7 larger than I think |

| 856373 | 2010-05-01 11:27:00 | So did you manage to fit the heatsink and all 12 Gigs RAM? | Sweep (90) | ||
| 856374 | 2010-05-01 11:34:00 | So did you manage to fit the heatsink and all 12 Gigs RAM? For now no, its got the stock cooler on it, but as I was thinking about it later I realized the mounting bracket is a square, it means I will have to rethink my push/pull fan ideas to get it working but it might fit if rotated 180 degrees. Going to play with it tomorrow. |

| 856375 | 2010-05-01 23:34:00 | You can take off the fins on the Dominators, did you know that? | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 856376 | 2010-05-02 00:08:00 | Oh and btw, pictures or it's all a lie!!! | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 856377 | 2010-05-02 00:09:00 | I didn't know that. I have reinstalled the shadow the other way and it fits fine but the fins are still in the way of the push/pull fan. Removing them might just give it enough clearance. Trouble is, I do not have anything that will fit those little black screw things. |
