What do you mean by it's a veteran?

its when a car is over 25 years old in denmark then you can have veteran insurance on it that cost like 20% of normal insurance, the only bad thing is that you are only allowed to drive in it from april or something to october/november

but with the shitty winter weather i should not be driving it in the winter anyways, it would be a pile of rust in no time, the danish roads are filled with salt in the winter time

Yes, its really rare nowaday. Last week I seen an old lady driving a TSI talon Mint as hell, im like she has no idea what kind of potential that thing has

BTW I have a somewhat rare version SVT Focus ( i know its a focus) but they only made 10K of them I have #3998. It has 6-speed Getrag (same as mini cooper S) Cosworth tuned 170hp engine as opposed to 140hp, Tuned suspension, leather interior and a few other things+ plus the mods ive done

That kinda sucks you are restricted to the time you can drive it. But if you say you shouldn't be anyways, then it's not so bad then I guess.

nah its not THAT bad but when you have that kinda car then you dont wanna see it int the freakin gragae for 6months , and btw, its the same about MC's except for offroad machines, and with MC's it dont matter if its from 2009 or from 1938 so i'm happy im not using those things and besides, take this car for example http://www.dodge.com/en/2009/viper/ it costs 91220$ in the US, in Denmark, the exact same model costs around 375000 $ because of our crazy car taxes

Is there no way that u can rotate the CPU cooler +90 degree so it blow out and not on the video PCB?

Looking forward to see the output of this rig.
hows this look now

Nice, but is it running ? You are slowing down the very good 4330 PPD average for this rig.

I guess I have to produce a photo of my rig in the near future. There are no yellow wire strips but everything else.

I only had it down for about 30min today while i put it back in the case. I don't have any yellow wire strips anymore and i don't even have that video card in this rig I replaced it since the last pic

. I can see in the stats that it most have run close to 24/7. The photo was taken at 1/30" and that speed the fans would have been blured, thats why I know it was not running.

At the time i took that pic i didn't have it running because i just got it back together but about 2mins after the pic i had it back running again. It runs as close to 24/7 as possible. It only has been off for switching GPUs,take it out of the case,cleaning,put back in the case... Its had about 5hrs of downtime since i have owned it.

I personally haven't dropped any screws in the PSU. I tend to be good about not dropping screws at all

I normally don't like posting pics, cos I'm using a phone camera :S

The insides are the same as the ones i had inside the HTPC. But I just bought a NZXT Beta EVO case and an Enermax Pro82+ 425W PSU. Now I can fit the TRUE to keep temps down and computer almost silent. But more importantly, this is what I will use to house the upcoming i7 cruncher. Although I'll probably get some 140mm fans for the case.




I think it's quite funny the TRUE is almost the same size as the mobo
