The way it's looking if should be over the next couple of weeks. Can't wait to officially join the franky club when it's done, I'm sure mine will be more hideous, but time will tell. :P

Mate you haven't seen the "Optimaximus" yet lol!!

Or maybe the Compaximus?

He he yeah Gary that was the first one Optimaximus is the Intel based Franky

Could someone please give me an 'official' definition of a Frankenstein build? I mean if it is buying some new parts the taking parts from another computer to put with them, That's all I've built for years. I'm not sure I can remember the last time I built a computer with all new parts. I'm just curious if I am a charter member of the 'Frankie' club.

That's it Steve, Parts from a couple of other PCs, spare parts, and new ones. Welcome to the club. Upgrading a component or two doesn't count, a whole new PC must come out of the dark evil operation. It helps if it's done during a bad lightning storm too....

Hiyya Steve so you are probably the founding member technically speaking lol!!

Mine are just in the main recycles I get from the local council tip / recycle centre and flip bits (mostly used but some new) in and out and "modify" parts to fit to make the machine come to life!!

One condition is you must make - is the machine must have a Latin based name for the puppy!

Suggest Essenbus frankenstienimus for your first or favourite

Do you suppose Optimus Prime would work?

OOOOO I'd have to ask Gary first mate technically thats a fine line there mate with the Prime it really should be lower case second name but I think we could make an exception in your case though

I now remember why I missed sevenforums, hahaha.
