LOL, nothing wrong with 775....now if you had said you were still using a Pent1 thats a different story...

I was messing around with the 9800GTs and coolers.

Battle Axe- (poor, only 2 of the 4 tubes make contact with the GPU)

AC Accelero S2- (better but sticks up WAY too high) I am gonna cut it down to be the height of the video card later on. But I really think its more for the 9600 and below cards.

Zalman VF900- (6C warmer than the stock Calibre coolers set at 25%, 10C warmer than the calibre coolers set at 100%) So serious suckage on 9800 and up cards (also may be fne on 9600/9500 cards.

I just received a bunch of molex ends so this week I will be redesigning the PS.

MKmods · Aug 11, 2009

Ive been watching anime....(ur fault :laugh:

) I have to take some time and resume remodeling my house. In my spare time I have been playing with the comp.

Mark_Hardware · Aug 11, 2009

never been a big fan, personally

Scrizz · Aug 11, 2009

of what, the mod?!

Cold Storm · Aug 11, 2009

nah, I think he is saying Anime. If I'm not mistaken...

Ok... I guess you can blame me on the fact of anime.. But, you needed it in your life man!

I guess the big deal for me with anime is Im old and have had quite a lot of fun (as well as 10 years with a Geisha sent from God) So for me the romantic stuff brings back memories and makes me smile.
I worry about younger kids watching the romantic stuff because there is practically no chance to find a "Real" person that could measure up.

One other thing I enjoy is the Japanese have "to me" a nicer/sweeter take on romance, I enjoy Family Guy and the Simpsons but never receive the same happy feeling after watching one....
(Quite often the Anime go's a bit overboard on their male characters and even though they will shield the female character from certain doom (very commendable) even after 26 episodes they are retards when it comes to a simple kiss)

:respect:

Thanks MH for hanging out...

Yeah, now that's the type of reply I wanted in my ANIME thread! lol.. Nah, it's a hard thing to find true love anymore.. Its more of the fact of who's credit score is higher, and how much will the other person have if they died. It's a stupid time that we live in now. I'm just thankful that I have been able to see my father marry a woman that has done him good. Made him better and so forth.. even if He left us for 4 years for a dang power plant over seas.. :roll:

Good old Anime! :rockout:

Not to mention the Japanese are freaks. lol. I love their culture.

I got a bit of an update, thanks to 95Viper who posted Baby VelociRaptors for $69 I picked up a pair.
Normally I run Raid0 in all my builds but I kept hearing how fast the 640gig Hdds were I just went with one. It didnt seem that fast to me.

Spending $300 for Velociraptors not to mention the huge heatsink (basically making the small hdd the same size as a reg one was out of the question.. But $69 was a lot more reasonable and this mobo has 2 esata's so I can always get an external Hdd if needed (lol, I have never needed more than 100 gigs)

Cold Storm · Aug 12, 2009

That looks swweet man! Very sweet! I haven't even tried to do raid yet... I should try.. Never do..

MKmods · Aug 12, 2009

When I first joined TPU a few years ago I had 4 X 80gig hitachis and they just plain kicked ass...They even beat up a pair of raptors (at the time were like 2 or $300 each) Ever since I have used raid0 on every build. Some say there is more chance for failure but I never had one even after hundreds of builds.
One of the main reasons for me switching to the 640 single drive was I was having probs setting up Raid on this X58 mobo and honestly didnt have the time to mess with it. (before I was always AMD/Nvidia and practically never had a prob setting up raid)
Now I have plenty of time to mess with this Intel Matrix raid and set it up right.

Not to mention it just sounds cool to say I have VelociRaptors in my comp.

(just dont tell Wile E that I am not using efficient Hdds after all my fussing with the GPUs :laugh:

)

Scrizz · Aug 12, 2009

that's a sweet deal there MK :toast:

good stuff
Don't forget the RAID 0 :rockout:

Yeah, but I would kill ATI cards with about the same amount of remorse if I got them for free. lol.

I try not to kill stuff unless I know I can afford a replacement, or at least be able to RMA it. lol.

Yeah, that is true.. the ATI cards you gotta keep as they where your own babies.. Which sucks. I'm glad you are still keeping the OClit tag.

MKmods · Aug 13, 2009

I have been trying to fit the Hdds and using existing Sata cables and think I solved the prob. I had a pair of left hand 4" sata cables that fit perfect if I mount the Hdds in the mobo tray (half above half below)

Bottom view

LOL, I think I finally butchered this poor mobo tray past its limit so I am gonna mold another. Im finally out of CF so I need some more...what do you guys think of this Red CarbonFiber/Kevlar?

Cold Storm · Aug 13, 2009

awwwww R.I.P. MOBO tray.. Yeah, what you thought about willl work quite well with your whole set up!

:toast:

MKmods · Aug 13, 2009

lol, my own fault for constantly changing things, at first I was just gonna put a new layer over this mobo tray but figured I would just cast a new one only this time using a glass mold (leaves a 1,000,000 X better surface finish than a reg one.

Do you like the red/black CF?

Cold Storm · Aug 13, 2009

Yeah, I love the red/black CF.. it's going to look pimpin'!!!
