Sector ZZ₉ Plural Z Alpha
System Name УльтраФиолет
Processor Intel Kentsfield Q9650 @ 3.8GHz (4.2GHz highest achieved)
Motherboard ASUS P5E3 Deluxe/WiFi; X38 NSB, ICH9R SSB
Cooling Delta V3 block, XPSC res, 120x3 rad, ST 1/2" pump - 10 fans, SYSTRIN HDD cooler, Antec HDD cooler
Memory Dual channel 8GB OCZ Platinum DDR3 @ 1800MHz @ 7-7-7-20 1T
Video Card(s) Quadfire: (2) Sapphire HD5970
Storage (2) WD VelociRaptor 300GB SATA-300; WD 320GB SATA-300; WD 200GB UATA + WD 160GB UATA
Display(s) Samsung Syncmaster T240 24" (16:10)
Case Cooler Master Stacker 830
Audio Device(s) Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro PCI-E x1
Power Supply Kingwin Mach1 1200W modular
Software Windows XP Home SP3; Vista Ultimate x64 SP2
Benchmark Scores 3m06: 20270 here: http://hwbot.org/user.do?userId=12313
SpeedFan - not always 100% accurate for 100% of the people out there, but still great for the small amount of SYS MEM it uses compared to other Taskbar squatters; recommend using the newest beta for best accurate compatibility
FreeRAM XP Pro - so much easier than having to reboot when SYS MEM gets low, and great for cleaning leftover stuff out of MEM on the fly
WinLaucher XP - another Taskbar squatter that allows multi-core and hyper-threading CPU users to set an applications affinity and resource priority by creating launch shortcuts. Downside, though, applications must be launched from within the WinLauncher utility for those settings to be set.
RightMark Audio Analyzer - great audio testing utility, used by many of the big-league manufacturers for verifying and comparing their hardware's output quality
Process Explorer - Microsoft utility all users of current WIN OSes should have around; can replace and surpass Task Manager both in form and functions. Can be used to see what services and process are running, and what service has loaded up other services. Processes are grouped and color coded based upon what aspect of the OS ran them (system, user, local network, etc). Has saved me a couple of times when a SYS has contracted malware that disables being able to run Task Manager.

Just for starters :toast:
