nice modding, clean build, great overclock, overall superb job. On a side note my comment stays, but I took my vote back, only because u not understanding something, & instead of researching it, you gave someone you don't even know a really hard time, I really disliked that, not a cool thing to do, On another side note, try & do what you think doesn't take skill's then you can argue the point.

looks very nice, tidy and a great overclock on that proc. The H20 setup just tops it off for me, the icing on the cake ^_^
Very nice, will go and vote now! :D

by: kyle2020Thank you! I am in the continual process of overclocking and screwing around. Currently I am running my CPU at 4.05GHz -- not a big jump from 4.01, but an improvement none-the-less.

what E-Penis 06 score improvement do you get?
by: kyle2020Uhh... well, 3dmark06 is currently out of commission for me. Haven't figured out why yet, but I switched to a different video card driver version and no matter what I try, it isn't working in 3dmark06 in SLI. Every other game works fine in SLI.... so I will have to get back to you on that one.
exactly ;)

Found out why 3dmarks06 didn't want to run SLI any more: I had setting in NVIDIA control panel to "SLI Performance Mode: Force Alternate Frame Rendering 1" which gave me the best performance. But all the sudden that setting wouldn't allow SLI in 3dmark06, but SLI worked in every other program fine still. I have to set to "SLI Performance Mode: NVIDIA Recommended (SLI)" for it to work in 3dmark06 now. ?!?!? I dunno why.
9/10 from me great mod

3dmarks06 score?
How in the world is that giving you a crappy comment? People are way over-sensative at this website apparently. This seems to be a daily occurance for me.

I am looking for a car right now. Motorcycle later maybe.
by: fullinfusionUmm.. No, I never gave him a 2. I gave him a 6. He gave me a two because I asked him what kind of 3dmarks06 score he got with those ATI cards. Go figure.
nice clean spider... 8/10 great job!!!! and ty is an ass for posting a 2... i think he feels a tad intimidated!
Now everyone things I am a jerk and are hatemailing me.
Very nice...I'd have set up the H20 a little different...But hey, I'm not putting it down one bit...You've managed to keep it inclosed and tidy at the same time...tip-o-the-hat to you sir.
by: pentastar111Yeah, I definately wanted to keep everything enclosed in my computer.

At this point I really wish I had a larger case; something like an antec 1200. But at the same time I like the smaller case.
I definately would have liked to run a 2x120mm radiator in the rear instead of the one 120mm radiator in the rear and the other 120mm radiator in the drive bay.
Saw the other post....couldn't help but think that people are a little bit jumpy....anyways, I like your build. it doesn't deserve a 1, 2, or 3. I gave it a 7/10. It is a nice color scheme, water-cooler [wish i had the patients], and because of the other post....LOL. -cheers-
edit: I turned water-cooled into water-cooler...apparently it is an office computer? lol. XD

Hateful comments are not acceptable and will not be tolerated. Neither will vindictive or negative behavior, please only use constructive criticism if you do like a particular case.
Very nice job! You obviously put some time into this! 8/10 from me.......
