BTX cases, lol. I personally hate the things to no end, it's like they designed it just so that they could non-conform to the standard.
Other than that, nice setup!

I can only use M keyboards. All others are junk to me.
Its the only keyboard that can withstand the pounding I put on em.
I've broken lesser keyboards in short order. The M is the BATTLETANK of all keyboards. And besides.. I can do WITHOUT goofy proprietary MS 'keys'.
Sorry MS, but not EVERYBODY runs an MS OS all the time ya know.
If there was a nuclear war..the only things to survive would the cockroachs and IBM MODEL M Keyboards!
Actually..I have a few of em employed around the homestead, and also use one at work. I also have a few NEVER BEEN USED M's stored away deep in the server room closet at home. Ya never know when there could be a nuke war/tornado/hurricane/flood all in the same day. I may have to break out a replacement..

Look what came in the UPS truck! I will be posting the pics of the new build this weelend! SWEEEEEET I have the memory in the motherboard already, that's why it's not in the package but it's Mushkin 1600 DDR 1.65V I cannot wait to see if this system is faster than the P45 system I have been using.

Hello Nate, yes keep us informed as I'm curious also.

I know it calculates Pi in HALF the time as my Q8200 to one million digits. (almost)Look what came in the UPS truck! I will be posting the pics of the new build this weelend!

Q8200 - 22
i7860 - 13
I'll get some pictures up this weekend!!! IT IS NICE!!!
Edit: This CPU i7860 is just awesome! It runs slightly OCd on a $15 Coolermaster TX3 @ 31C! The stock Intel had it running @stock speed at 45C Amazing.
Anyone thinking about a new CPU....keep the i7860 at the top of the list.Last edited by nate42nd; 18 Sep 2009 at 18:58.

Anyone thinking about a new CPU....keep the i7860 at the top of the list., im always on the lookout for little reasons why ''I NEED'' an i7 rig. 
but here's my Q9450 ''superPI'' @ 3.6ghz
so at what clock-speed does your i7 run a 13sec superPI..???

Stock 2.8
That's something to go by....your 9450s score. I will start OCing tonight and see what I can get it to do.....
I don't know what I'm doing. The BIOS is a lot different than my P45 board. I am trying to figure it out. I almost have it "figured" haha
Thanks for the info Skunk
I did a quick 3.0Ghz here is the Super Pi result
Here's the best review I've seen yet. Looks like it's officially faster than the 920!
