Mods:
The Coolit has been modified with 120 mm fan using a 92 to 120mm adapter. Video cards a rebuilt using better thermal pads and AS5 on the GPU core. 24x7 stable to 650/920.

I use this for LAN parties as the other system is not very portable (100+ pounds)with the phase unit attached. Scores 16,000+ on 3DMark06.

Ah anther outstanding rig m8...I just have to know: How the hell can you afford all this stuff?!?!
 
Just a hardware enthusiast, I guess. And, since we need three PC's at home, each one gets a little attention. Makes for easy LAN parties.
 
that is beautiful m8 - very nice in deed.
 
10/10 Nice! Where do you get those awesome nvidia stickers?
 
Another very nice rig, kinda wish i had one of those systems right now :P
 
OMG! I wish I could do cabling like that. 10/10 from me.
 
Man that looks cool nice and clean, something like what I'm going to build, GG, you deserve a 10 because you deserve it I can only imagine how much money you put into it(probably around 2,900+) I can tell you worked hard on it, GJ happy gaming :)

Thanks! Did you use the 3-inch cut?


Yes, the one I used was a 3 inch cut.

And, once you have a quad and 8800GTX SLI, it is kind of hard to step too far back, even just for LAN parties. :-)

Thanks again, guys. Yep, love the Stackers. Enough room to do any cooling solution you like.

The memory cooler works quite well for $18.95. I run 2.35V Dimm and it stays nice and cool. It also helps the RAM run 4-3-3-6, 2T at 1000 MHz for 24x7 duty. For some benching, I run it at 2.45V, 4-3-3-6, 2T at 1066.

Nice, I just wondered, I have a pair of Domminator sticks, and the heatsinks are quiet tall, I'm worried if the cooler won't fit because of the tall heatsinks? :/
 
Very nice rig.

I myself am looking for the OCZ XTC Cooler to go with my Buffalo Firestix.
Problem is, is that its hard to find.

Where were you able to get that one from?
 
Hey nice machine bro.. Love the XTC cooler. Looks sick!!
