thats mine, custom built it, very proud of it. it's not an ultimate performer but she's a work in progress. the next thing i want to buy is a 2nd 8600GTS, then some overclocked OCZ ram, followed by a more powerful processor would get the computer performing WAY better.

mods rigs? im tired... explain... mods as in moderators or mods as in modification?

[Solus]

that option is out the window for me... 160GB is the minimum SATAII size I can get here... lol the only other SATAII hdd i have is a 500GB...

LOL!

If you're into modded rigs Mr Mystake, my water cooling kit should be installed by january in a modded shuttle case link into my big case, I could send you a PM with a few pics when im done. Its going to be difficult Ill have to take out a lot of the insides of the case, then drill holes for 2x 120.3mm rads. Which should take up a ton of space.

Still trying to find a cheap shuttle case to do it with though, im kinda worried it wont be 400mm long which is what I need it to be.

I personally wouldn't have gone for a 8600gts or 8600gt or anything like that though, way too weak, Im getting 2x EVGA 8800gt when they are released on monday.


EVGA rock because you can install a waterblock and keep your warrenty. Their thing there looks pretty sweet if its still on in jan/feb then Ill enter mine. I find it funny that their vbery top rig with 680i LT is just 13k points, I get 11k points atm and one of the cards im ordering on monday should brake 13k by itself.

If ya ever get any questions about that kinda stuff tho just come and ask.

I'm may post some of my stuff tomorow but atm its just air cooled in my case, basics, not done up yet or anything, although I did build it myself if that qualifies for custom I built.

Cant upload it yet because none of my stuff is EVGA.


I'll post some pics of my rig tomorow.

Basically its just my stuff with a custom CPU cooler inside my stacker case, with tons of case fans, they don't glow yet or anything though so its pretty boring.

Heh, nice.

When I can get a job more money will go into my computer. One of the ways I built it was that it is easy to upgrade, and therefore as I upgrade parts a 2nd computer will be built.

I'm considering building a fully plexiglass case, or atleast buy a new case because the current one I'm using is MORE then just a few years old, way moar. I think the original intent was to build a computer, over 8-9 years ago. Thats how old the case is. It had a 250watt PSU in it lol.

For the Ram, I know I have absolute garbage ram. I think 667mhz Kingston but I mean in itself it really isn't that good, I don't think anyway. It was like 70$ though I think which when I look for OCZ ram today, for 90$ I can get 2gb on platinum series.

OCZ ram is teh best buy far, i got myself SLI ram to match my motherboard, it'll looks alrite.


1gb to 2gb is a big differecne lol, 2gb to 4gb though, not the same effect.

Ney, I have vista 64 waiting in a box under my desk, I was using it but gave it up in the end beacuse it ruined my graphics performance, Ill be going back to it soon though, most of thats fixed and need it for DX10. Uses CPU cores MUCH better though.

Probably at xmas when I get 2gb more memory.
