To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 3.6 GHz (3.8 for benching) - Coolit Freezone modified 120 mm cooler - EVGA 680i motherboard - 2 GB DDR2-800 @ 1000 MHz, 4-3-3-6, 2T - OCZ RAM Cooler - EVGA 8800 GTS SLI @ 650/920 - Mushkin Enhanced 650W SLI PSU - Vantec fan controller - CoolerMaster Stacker 830 - 30 inch Dell 3007FPW Monitor

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.

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.

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. :)

You are a sick sick puppy...but if i was a sick puppy i'd never want to be healthy. Solid rig as always man. Nice to see that Freezone didn't go to waste.

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?
