My RIG! or Just click my sig!

Nice case and setup mate! ^_^

snilloconator,

Where do you have you're radiator and pump? I've got a shark too, but it's not nearly as clean on the inside. :)

TY! Guys! I still need some more work done but out of money right now, mama ok new processor soooo....:cry:

As far as the rad well it's kind of cheezy! I'll hit you with a pic! I'll explain why thoug... I had the rad originally bolted on the back of the case having the 120 cooling it with air from within the case (NOT GOOD). I was showing major high temps. So I rearranged and bolted this thing to the side of my case. It gave me better flow for the hot air trying to leave the case pluse it was no longer dragging it across the rad! So I slapped an additional blue led 120 on top of it and it came out ok! For now... Plus the fan acts as a light when fraggin late at night!

nice. what size is you LCD? is that a 7950 GX2? is it ok to have you watercooling running by you hot PSU?:bleh:

Srry I forgot to add those to my sig. Monitor is 24" Dell and the vid card is 7950GX2. Thanks Dude!

Nice set up dude! Some nice specs there! As for the wires I went down to the depot and purchased some 1" wire loom and went to work! Turned out pretty clean....

Haven't posted mine in a bit....

First the desktop:



With a little cleaner wiring as I got a new PSU.


Then the lappy:



It's an eh shot, but get's the point across. It used to look like this:



And my new MiniITX box, custom built into an old DVD player:



And the internals:



These are my current rigs.

Could someone with a little bit worse rig post some pictures. All those $2000+ rigs make me want to spend more money on my rig to achieve similar results. Not that my rig is bad (A64 [email protected], 2GB DDR, GF7800GT) but it isn't nearly as beautiful as those rigs.

That is a tiny PSU. Pretty cool setup.:)

My daughter's rig and home server and side view of temp non-functional guest rig to the far right (getting new PSU).


My rig with Darth Vader head for external SATA drive storage(2x 200Gb Caviar SE).


Wife's rig (same case as mine)

PicoPSU FTW! I got the 120 watt version, even though my adapter is only good for 60W and the computer uses under 20W full blast :D

But it really comes in handy when the case you picked gives you no headroom above a standard stick of RAM.....

worse rig coming up...

~900MB RAM
20GB Maxtor 5400rpm
ATI Radeon 32MB...
...and other hi-end stuff...

Regardless its old age it's still pretty much alive...not to mention that it was my main rig just before a year ago...

My trusty Intel workhorse in my sig:


An Asus A8N SLI, AMD X2, eVGA 7800GT rig I built for my friend:

Finally finished my build.

how loud is that case?

Gamer



Media Center

It's pretty quite. I just got mine up and running on Friday. I'm only using two of the side door fans though.

Here's mine...


iMac 20inch and Sony HX73 connected to my media center, to play RTS's and such...



here's the bigger view...

MY AMDTi HQ:



Recently installed the H2O loop.


EDIT: Finally decided to install VF900. Performance is pretty good. I didnt expect VF900 to be able to cool down the R580 core but despite its relatively small size it worked. I checked the core/heatsink contact area after applying some AS5 and I must say I have never seen a better contact, AS5 was evenly and smoothly spreaded out on both HSF/GPU. Top quality product.

What kinda camera do you have?

I love that heatsink. :drool:

I do too...wonder what it is.

Zalman CNPS9500 AM2 Heatsink Support S754/S939/AM2 Socket

or

Zalman CNPS9500-Cu-LED Heatsink with 92mm Ultra Quiet Fan *For Intel Socket 775 and AMD Socket 754/939/940

THose large fans, are they also Zalman?

The only half decent part of my PeeCee:

Heres my new Conroe build.

Looks really nice, pretty good wire management. Glad to see I'm not the only wire freak. Two questions:

1. Did you spray paint the drive bays? They looks real nice. I was planning on spraying my entire inside with flat black.
2. How much did your temps drop at load with the AC Freezer 7 Pro? If you OC at all, whats your clocks and temp?

Thanks Zodiak.

Didn't spraypaint the drive-bays- they were already that colour.

I haven't used anything other than the Freezer Pro I'm afriad, so have nothing to compare against, but I seem to be getting about 32C Idle, 42C Load, at stock speeds.

Haven't tried overclocking yet ..... but that could be todays task :)

cheers, Mark.
