I finally finished my new PC!!!!

It took me more than forever but I finally got all of the RIGHT parts this time.

I woulda had this a month ago but one of the companies I ordered parts from decided it would be super cool to send me the wrong stuff even after confirmation over the phone.

Anyway, I got it all...now I just have to put the rest of it together re-install, update, and PRESTO!!

I think by next week I should be back in business!!! YAY!!

Here are some of the specs:

AMD Athlon 64 FX-53
with HyperTransport @ 2.6GHz

2GB Corsair XMS
Dual Channel PC-4400 DDR @550 MHz

148GB (74GB x 2) WD Raptor 10,000 RPM w/16MB Cache
plus extra storage @ 250GB WD Caviar 7,200 RPM

NVIDIA GeForce
6800 Ultra 256MB DDR3

Saving and management is the key to making a poor man rich.

Well not rich but it sure would be nice to be.

The reviews I have read on that product, pretty much say, it cools good as a traditional/simple water-cooled setup, or just a little bit better than a high end Heat Sink Fan Setup, but can’t handle high end over-clocking. So it’s a question of do you just want to remove fan noise or do you want to over-clock where having the highest cooling is your goal. Also because it uses passive cooling technology, it is highly depending on the room temperature and humidity.
 
I'll let you know how it works first hand by next week.

I reasearched it and did find a few negatives to it but....I've got the details all worked out so everything should be just fine.

Word up,

Looks like a kick-ass Mo-chine. Good luck ^^
 
O.O ......... holy shit....................

.....Ill bet it even Juliennes fries....

Strap yourself in and enjoy that pig!! [Congratulations!]
 
You do know your 64 bit processor is only gona run at 32bits untill Windoz$ 64 is released. And even then the programs will need to be writen in 64 bit code. It is a nice system tho and im a big fan of water cooling systems. (now go overclock the bit(h )!
 
Completely aware but its less work when the time comes and you better believe this mofo is gonna work overtime.

Mo..



Gonna finalize eveything today and should be actually operating by tomorrow if I have the time tonight.

Plus I have to work all weekend which kinda sucks but oh well.

Later.
 
Right on! I managed to squeeze in some quality time this weekend and everything checked out great!! All systems are GO.

I am gonna install the game and update today and should be online tomorrow.

Hope to see you all soon.

This mofo is wicked awesome (as they say in Boston).

Way better than I imagined and well worth the time and effort and of course the money invested.

<------fuckin' estatic.

Temps, Temps, Temps!!
 
without a hitch steady as she goes with a whoppin' 58-78 degrees Fahrenheit operating temps depending on idle or peak performance. I still have room to play you can pretty much designate what temp you want to keep it at.

btw Room Temp: 78

Thats about it so far.
