Finally starting to get my OCs completed on my newest machine (I don't have all that much time to work on it any more ), here are some updated pictures, the only thing that has changed is that I finally got around to putting my side panels on.

 Acheived 3.64GHz (455*8) at 1.45V Prime stable (Not spectacular for a G0, but it gets the job done)

My RAM timings are fairly loose, but I have raised their speed somewhere around 1200MHz, so it's expected 5-5-5-12

My 2900s are still a work in progress, I have reached a voltage limit of 860/1142 for right now, but that's not final

These Maximus Rampages are capable of some good clocks!  

Looks very nice and colorful.  What case is that?  Xilo Windtunnel?
 

Thanks for the positive comments, I spent alot of time on it.  I'm still trying to finish it up. 

Case was wiped down w/ alcohol & then regular rattle can krylon or rustoleom primer.  I then tried applying krylon or rustoleom satin black paint but wasn't happy w/ how some areas were turning out satin & some weren't.  So next day ended up spraying flat black over that & it turned out awesome.  I originally wanted it powder coated but that would have been more time & $$$.

Just got the two GTX280s and the GTX260s  Guess its time to change my sig. I do have the new CoolIt GTX280&260 Drive bay chiller coming in for review, I also just bought a hardware review site, we will be taking it over by the end of this week. The last owner started loosing interest and has not posted any new reviews for a yr, all that was kepy updated was the daily news section on our home page. In the next two weeks we will have new reviews Cases/ video cards mice, coolers. I will post the sites name by the end of this week.

There's a few over here...

My primary is an AXP Barton at 11.5*200, 1GB Mushkin Standard, ASUS A7N8X-X, and 9700 Pro AIW.  Power supply is a 400W Ahanix SilenX, one 92mm vantec stealth out the back, and some 15dB 80mm is mated to my SLK-900U.  Storage is courtesy a pair of 300GB Diamondmax 10s, and DVD writing by ASUS as well.  The most important part is the sound card, an ice1712-based M-Audio.  Currently serves for file storage, video, and music-playing.

My new primary (so I can dedicate my previous one over to audio mastering entirely), is a C2D E6850, on a Gigabyte GA965P-DS3, 2GB XMS2, and I've borrowed an 8800GT from a mate.  Lobbed a quiet aftermarket cooler on there (heatpipes.  Nifty, those.) and the 500W Antec supply I grabbed on the cheap ensures that things don't get too loud.  Hard drive is a...320GB WD SATA, I think (didn't pay that much attention to that this time).  I really need to move all my c**p over here.  Mainstay of my compile farm.

 Have a T43 Thinkpad with a Dothan 760 and 512MB RAM (do I ever feel it).  80GB hard drive.  Not much to say about the hardware, but this is actually where I do most of my programming and editorial work.

The Uglybox is a brick-like entity with a 1.7 Netburst celeron, 256MB memory, and an FX5200.  It exists only for occasional testing and as a loaner.  Its 40GB caviar is where the XP key that came with my laptop went. :/

Emu Box is a weird one.  A 1.1GHz Tualatin PIII (needs an i810-A/i810-B socket converter) with two sticks of RAM that are only 512MB when in this particular configuration in this particular machine.  Random 30GB hard drive filled mostly with MAME roms. and an 8500 to render them (fantastic for $30).

Except where noted (uglybox), all machines run 100% Gentoo Linux.

Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0 GHz 375 MHz

2 Gig PC 6400 1.8v 375 MHz

Road Runner for $30 a month!

I'll start with my oldest build ^_^

AMD Athlon Thunderbird 900MHz Slot A

384MB Kingston ValueRam (3x128)

Maxtor 120 GB Hard Drive

Aopen PA3000+ Riva TNT2 32MB

Gigabyte GA-7IX

Unknown Black casewith front usb ports

Saitek Eclipse USB Keyboard

Microsoft PS/2 IntelliMouse

Dell Monitor salvaged from my friends old pc

Toshiba DVD-ROM/CD-RW 16X combo drive, TEAC CD-ROM 6X

Yes, it still runs and gets online. ^_^ Good for a backup incase something happens (virus, drive failure, etc) and for old apps.  Was my first build ever and I'm not gonna upgrade it any more, too difficult to find parts.

Its together and running primo: the fan speed issue on the HD4850, see: http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=14111 . The Xiggie 120, freakin dumb arse rubber grommets for fan clips, nearly pulled a few off. LOL. The Gigabyte , sweet. Great price, ordering #2 Friday. May swap the MSI board though, considering some added features. Antec 900 rebate is in!!! LOL. Thought they were gonna juke me on that one. Still need 2nd SATA optical drive, can't part with my old Lite-On, we go way back. If you noticed , it's not even hooked up. I tossed on a DIAMOND XtremeSound XS71 7.1 . Cheapy I know, but hey, sound seems much crisper, thats for sure, here we go , ready, camera, ACTIOn:

So far, the GPU is sick. The 790X flawless, just a solid system for all me needs.

Also finally did a 780G HTPC Biostar mobo, OCZ Gold, OCZ PSU, low profile undecided, picts soon.

Peace, Penewah!
