I assume, given the massive amounts of HDD space and RAM, that you're going to use it as a server? Mine just has a 150GB disk--it's just another low-cost cruncher for me

There are always coolers like this, but it is expensive

Yes. I found this board for 60 bucks and bought 4 quad opterons for 10 a piece. not sure what im doing about ram ,psu and cpu coolers yet. Again this is just to play with you will see it for sale on tpu within the next 3 months lol

de.das.dude · Jan 25, 2013, 06:37 PM

10$ a piece

??

Krazy Owl · Jan 25, 2013, 09:50 PM

Build a mega server rig. Install recent games in it and start a LAN party then $$$

If I had one I would start a BF3 lan party here. Pretty popular and you can get sponsors so it take most of the expenses from your charge.

Great beast and deal

PS: When going to sale, will you keep those prices or you'll low them down?

I would imagine he would sell them for what he bought them for or only slightly higher due to the fact that its a non standard layout and would have to be benched or buy an expensive proprietary rack for it

I was just joking because the price is ridiculous, lowing them down will be almost impossible, specially the CPUs, that's why i told him "great deal", the PS was just kinda ironic

Anyway, thanks for the extra info

I just rebuilded this PC for myself during the time I wait to get more money.

Compaq Evo D51S SFF

UPGRADES

CPU: 2.4 to 2.8
Memory: 512megs ddr-266 to 2 gigs ddr-400
HDD: 40 gigs to 80 gigs
CD reader to DVD-RW burner

I also modded the psu fan. Just took an Antec fan from a dead smartpower and put it in place. Almost dead silent the whole computer now.

I also built this small setup only for someone who would like to surf the net, e-mails, YouTube, Facebook.

Antec case with 430w @-power psu (Made by Dynapower USA)
Asus P4B533
P4 FSB-533 2.4 gigs OC@2.8

noisy, hot, excess vibration, unreliable?

some of the older maxtors i've used were ok, (some 250GB sata's i had were actually quite reliable, other than their slow ass speeds) but overall they werent very good.
case in point: they no longer exist

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Jan 26, 2013, 12:37 PM

Yeah there Seagate now. LOL I actually have some like 10 or 12 year old maxtors still chugging along in a couple of my crunchers.

de.das.dude · Jan 26, 2013, 12:47 PM

they were probably bought by segate. WD bought hitachi tight?

Question, how does everyone feel about leaving out extra PCI brackets?

Improved airflow or decreased pressure?
