Show Off Your Rig - Page 2

Last message on previous page:
Well, it would seem my rig doesn't hold a candle to the majority of yours. Then again, the dust and wires don't help either. Here are some pics, specs in sig:



Here is another:



And a picture of the insides:



These pictures remind me that I need to clean up my room...

Well I'm Jealous!


By the way, where'd you get that Green UV CC mounted underneath your monitor? Is it just a regular CC hooked up via molex? Looks cool.


And I'll try and match your setup with my next build.

lovin' this computer!, the orange is kick ass, but what gets me is the plain aesthetic look integrated with the advanced (i know what im doing) water cooling! sweet

Soldier yours is sweet too! Certainty has the WOW FACTOR.

I will post mine when i have one worth it

Man you guys would start a thread like this when I'm not going to be home anytime soon. :-/ Nice systems guys & gals. I'll throw up some pics this weekend whenever I get home.

Wow some really nice machines here, mines pretty clean and simple, nothing flash but thats just the way I like it! Enjoy!



Lite-On DVD-RW and Shuttle PC Card reader.

The Front speaker output has a 3.5mm splitter so I can use my speakers for music and I don't have to swap cables to use my Zalman 5.1ch Headphones That Fan Mate 2 goes to my CPU cooler even though I just leave it on high and let the Intel fan controller do it's job. D-Link DWL-G520 rB down the bottom.

Can't wait to replace that X1950Pro with something Meatier!!!!!


My "Cosy" Desk and very comfortable chair! VX922 monitor, G5 Mouse, Logitech Multimedia Keyboard, Archtype Surface 1030 Mouse Pad and Altec Lansing Speakers.

Not the best or flashest rig around but other than the placeholder video card it's just how I want it!

8O For as many drives that you have in there, thats an exceptionally clean case. Especially for a 900. Whats that black stuff on your mobo tray?

Very nice clean layout there, looks professional. What kind f frame rates you getting with the SLI, in your games has it been worth it...

here's my frankenstein... didn't pay for a single part in it all hand-me-downs





i definately win the sexiest-machine-ever award

Ok, after some procrastination.. I figured i'd contribute to the thread.

Built this machine in august of 2006, shortly after core2 ship day. The video card is a new addition though.

How's that case working out for you mousemonkey? I'm think of getting one like it for my next pc. That way I can go crazy with lighting. UV reactive cables and cables sleeves, all LED fans, cold cathodes, EL wire, the works.

Heh, the wtf factor is what I'm going for. The PC in my sig looks cool IMO, but that's because of its elegance, that's what a Lian-Li is ment to be.

Now I want the polar opposite of that. I want a computer that has an overwhelming amount of colors. I mean, I want somebody to be able to take a picture of my computer and find more colors then there are hex color codes for. I want a computer that requires so many UV lights to properly illuminate all the UV reactive things I've installed that I have to remove all plastic from my room and wear sun screen whenever I turn it on because of the amount of UV radiation that this thing gives off. I want a comptuer that will bring other people to their knees in horrible, debilitating pain because of the lumens it puts out and the maddening complexity of light shows going on. I want to have a pc that requires so much power for the lighting alone that I have to hire a team of scientists to create a new form of electrical power, because AC and DC simpily can't cope with the amount of energy need. So much power that any gauge of wire, even foot thick walls of copper, would just vaporize after a few nano-seconds from the extreme amounts voltage and amperage, even whilst being submersed in a vat of LN2.

Oh, and I really don't have a reason for building this, it's just going to be a Linux box. If I make it look really cool I can justify spending the cash on it.

I've noticed there are alot of different brands of acrylic case, which one is that?

I can't imagine the need to take the case apart again after it's buit, so I'll probably just epoxy the thing together.

Heres my micro-ATX rig:

The front of the Aopen Case:


The lid off displaying the CPU side (yes, the case is crammed full):


The other side showing the OC'd 7900GS graphics card, and an extra fan:


My throne upon which I sit fully reclined, keyboard in lap, Nostromo gamepad and wireless mouse on armrests:


Six feet in front of my recliner is the 70" screen on the wall (yes, the taskbar is about 2.5" high):


And a quick pic of my projector:


Its a great little box; I built it in December. It can handle all the latest games with the settings turned up, and looks great on the big screen. The problem is, I want to play Crysis the instant it comes out. I also want to play it in DX10.
1- the 8800GTX sure as heck wont fit in this case
2- Even if I bought a new case, the SATA connecters would be in thw way.
So now i'm looking at having to spend 1K+ to replace both of the + a new 8800GTX. DAMMITT!! :x Guess its time to build a new box.

Well, I guess I'll have to stock up on canned air.

It seems like the only support for the psu are the 4 screws that hold the thing to the side of the case. Is that safe? It looks like the PSU would just break the acrylic after a while and fall onto the video card.

Tuniq is a subsidiary of Sunbeam.

I have updated the pictures of my Antec Nine Hundre based rig, they are much better now, beware you guys on dial-up, they are approx 400Kb each

Here is one for your enjoyment:

CPU temps are around the 32C mark at idle with the fan only running at about 675RPM on auto speed control.

I will be doing some loaded tests tomorrow once everything has settled in.

Ah yes locky but mine is NOT an Intel, it is an AMD 6000+ rated at 125W and 1.4V so it is not doing too bad for what it is.

I know the Core 2's run cooler and use less power but I have "chosen" AMD and am planning on their new quad cores being as good as they say will be, but that is for another discussion and another time

Hah I get 32c with my fan only spinning at 2200rpm... oh wait maybe thats not so much to shout about ...bugger.



Nice one Dave, so whats next?, a foray into the TEC world perhaps?

Time to put the toolbox away, fire up S.T.A.L.K.E.R (which should run creamy smooth on your rig) and go shoot some bandits in the face. 8)

Well tinman69, That's nice, what else could be said.

I wish I had the room to do something like that but the boss would go off tap

Now i really don't wanna post my rig pic.

Nothing compares to these past few pages. Also i gotta break out the compressed air on the interior, its not that bad though.

Anyone here use a UFO????

Yeah, wiring is alot better than when i bought it. Ended up being one of those "quick-fix" things, cuz i needed a pc. I want to window mod it, right now i have a sheet of paper plugging the holes on the side of the case. My video card temps are down 5c with my "paper-mod"!! Pics coming soon...

Wootz. 3lf finally gets his own interview. I wonder when i can be interviewed...

Here s my baby, Titan, which has been a work in progress for the last few years.










I was pretty proud of it, until I saw THIS http://forums.bit-tech.net/showthread.php?t=76374&page=89&pp=20, at which point I was nearly reduced to tears.
