Yes, I am. I had a good Saint Patties day. (Although my hangover wasn't that bad today.)

Thanks Brandon. Glad to hear your replacing the 9600GT.

It's actually part your fault for me having a new case. You had me searching around for new ones. :laugh:

There was a Scout Sniper case on CL for $20, but someone beat me to it. Thus I ended up with my CM 690.

I'm happy with this thou. Quite a bit more happy than my last case. Which I'm now building my GF's desktop into. :p

well you have certainly come a long way from when i first saw your rig bro, keep up the good work,
if you search long enough you find some pretty amazing deals sometimes:D

only thing i dont like about the original 690 case is that the buttons is on the side, shoulda been on top instead, but you cant argue with that for 40$:laugh:

I actually like them where they are. Prevents people from bumping the buttons on my desk, thus less chance of random shut downs. :D

Considering I paid $20 for the raidmax case, and $40 for this... I'm happy.

YES!!!! :rockout:

the other card will be delivered to the buyer today and i sent him another email asking him to PLEASE post feedback as soon as he gets it and tests cause i need the money ASAP so hopfully he inst a dick about it and waits til paypal does it automatically or i will be pissed!

Already got a XFX 5850 lined up and cannot wait to send him the money for it so i can start the mail wait game :( BUT its sure worth it to see that mail lady drive up in your drive way with a nice shiny package!

Is there still drivers were you can hack them and let is run a nvidia card for Physix?

Nice! I was looking at the XFX 5850 585X-ZAFV, as well as the 5830, for another friend of mine since the coolers that come on those are supposed to give a good nose-to-performance ratio over the stock one. Just wish that the prices would come down just a bit more on the 5850 so he can upgrade from the aging 8800 GT that he has.

As far as the PhysX stuff goes I found these steps that someone used to get theirs working:

1. Uninstall ALL ATI software and ALL nvidia software including physx.
2. 10.2 cat for win 7
3. install 190.89 for win 7 Nvidia drivers
4. patch for physx
5. expand displays and enable physx acceleration

I also found this link as well: http://www.gamephys.com/2010/02/22/ati-nvidia-physx-catalyst-10-2-fix-dual-display-fix/

It's an awesome case.

Awesomeness achieved, i was thinking about getting that case, but dont know if i end up getting a SR2, so no room

I'm not gonna go dual-CPU anytime soon. What I currently have is overkill enough. lol.

The ATCS 840 is an awesome case, though. Roomy, very well built for a WC setup and has a TON of fans.

Currently testing a new low budget system to upgrade my sister's Athlon 64 3800+ with 1GB RAM. Looking good so far:

Pentium E6300 @ 3.5GHz (334x10.5) on stock volts
Scythe Shuriken Rev.B
Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
4GB OCZ 1066MHz DDR2
XFX ATI 5450 512MB Passive Cooler

It's running 50C on full load idles around 35C and is practically inaudible. But more importantly for my sister it plays BluRay without stutters and Firefox, Microsoft Word... open quickly. Draws just under 90W total too.:D

@dafour nice case you have there :rolleyes: Needs some WM but so does mine lol


I am going to be changing the rad soon so i'm not worried about wires all that much right now. I will take care of them when i have my loop out. Also i had to add some foam strips between the rad and the case to make a better seal so all the air has to pass through the rad and reduced vibration so its quieter

I had that case for my last build, and I really liked it. The airflow & cable management were quite good, there was a decent amount of interior space, but it wasn't big or expensive. I actually paid $75 for mine, so $40 is a great deal. I didn't think the right-side fan had much effect, but it was loud, so I just didn't use one.

It's working pretty well for me.

But then again, so is this new toy that showed up. :D







My under load temps dropped about 5*C, and I'm pretty sure it's only that small of a amount due to room temp.

A CRT, it hurts! No really, I haven't been on one of these jokers in years and my eyes are killing me after only 30 minutes. It's a 16" ESA, I got it at the Goodwill for $6. Figured it couldn't hurt to have an extra one to hook up to a little Presario I've got. Just testing it out on my rig for a bit.
