Your PC ATM

[brandonwh64]

Woot woot, how were temps before an how are temps now?

They went from 45idle to 31 idle and a 67 full load to 38 full load (tested with 20 minute intervals with prime95 max heat test)

Just got a gift of a GTX260 from Caliga4221 at OverClock and popped it in my Daughter's PC. In case you may not have seen the worklog it is Here . I have some older vids of the case on YouTube but now I have an HD cam so the following vids are a lot crisper.

While I had the lil beast open today to change out the cards I took a these vids and pics.

Here are some pics

Still looks pretty fresh after all those months.

Now it's got a honking huge card in it

I squealed in excitement, then I burst out laughing when it got to the picture with the little girl in, I'm not sure she fully appreciates that WC system just eyt

Thats a big drop!

My PC right now. Might loose a drive though.

 

[brandonwh64]

Oh yea! hell the apogee GT block didnt have a S478 backplate (just a 775) but i found my tuniq tower 120 back plates and they worked with the block

There have been some fantasic looking rigs posted in the last few pages. Nice job, folks.
I really like the sleeving job by Adam99leit. Of course CD's pinky is killer, Panther's case is shaping up swell, and I hope my temps end up as well as Brando's. Why the adamant boycott on water, PP? (your case always looks nice) I have heard you mention it in a few posts.

Anyway, here's mine ATM, it has been kicked to the curb while its case receives an overhaul and water cooling loop.

Man, it's really quiet. I just ponied up for a bunch of WC parts, and am going to spend a butt load of time modding my case - in the end I know it won't be this quiet! When my son gets older I think I'll just use a rack like CP's. Open air rigs are neat

I thought the towel was a nice touch.

 

[shevanel]

Hey! No posting here without showing off your new pr0n!

okay.. here it is.. work in progress..

moved the i5 stuff into a Lian Li PC-c33b and couldnt be happier. I am contemplating a modular PSU but the cable management isnt that nasty.. i now have the excess cables tucked under the 5.25 bay but its a closed case so w/e

Hey thanks man Tech stations are awesome, makes swapping parts sooo much easier and they run the coolest.

Some nicer way of managing cables in there and you are set, I think that looks very very good

Gota go modular in a case like that!

Real nice looking case actually.

Cheers for posting a pic actually I've been thinking of building a HTPC in one of these sizes cases, does look quite big

hmm

What I am tempted to do is a small form factor. I gotta read up on that though. Can be a bit tricky fitting certain components.

 

[Thrackan]

I'm tempted to get another mATX board, throw my 4850 in and do some small-time folding...

Because water took out my half dead GTX280 (my 3rd one that only worked on water but it screwed it up the rest of the way leaving me with a 4850) and it took out half my board right before i went to phase cooling. My hard drive problems in my other thread where from the board and not the drive itself. Luckily i have a Giga board i got from Adam and will be chugging along with dual channel once again

Im goin matx myself. MSI p55 and a 5770.

my parents were really bad, look at what other children get
i dont even own such a nice rig now, as im 20
nice build, but i find it a "little" overkill, for such a little girl. She will never knew, how powerful her little,sweet Princess-Rig is. Admirable! really!

Since this is relevant to the PC I'm on ATM, check out this awesome amount of screen space I have to deal with doing my Latin class on for 2 hours a day:

tinytinytinytiny, and my internet at home isn't working right now. So I have no real PC ATM T_T

i can recommend the NZXT rogue if you like the design? but its fairly big for a SFF case, but it keep things very cool + you can install a ton of fans in it, i think its 6 120mm or something like that

I'm with the love on the Rouge. I was wanting to do my Samurai X case in that.. But, I went with the raven.

Well, few days ago I bought a Gigabyte 3D Aurora case (got it very cheap - ~$35) because my CM690 was vibrating a lot lately and I couldn't do anything with it (and believe me - I've tried).

Something like this:

I must say, that despite it's age (launched in 2005/2006) it's a really good case. Big tower, aluminium front, quite good airflow and nice design (although beauty is in the eye of the beholder). The problem was the length of my HD5870 - there wasn't enough space for this baby so I had to remove hdd cage, which was done today:

Quite clean job i must say and now the Radeon have really nice and cool air from the front fan (fans were replaced as well, Noiseblockers XL1). Currently I'm waiting for my hdd silencers to mount the drives in 5.25" bays (right now only my main drive is just laying in the case). Then I'll post some finished rig pictures.
