Show Us Your Rig [2]

[Everlong]

Not that my hardware will be any real competition to most of you guys (even with the x3), but it's still my baby and I love it to bits. When my bank account gets to the point of looking a bit healthier, I'll go for a complete new build.. Until then, I'll do what I can with what I have..

Good to see my old 8800 is still serving you well

Oh yes, that it is... And it will most likely continue to do so until I manage to find that ever elusive GTX295 that I so desperately want..... Just to make it even more difficult to find, I'm hoping and praying that I find a XFX model. It was one of the last XFX branded NVidia cards, so it's ever so slightly rare.

Haven't given up though, after all, I did finally manage to find my 740BE..

I agree, it's awesome to be a member of a community like this, where people love the same things that you do.

On another note, my dog stole my chair! haha

Haha... Nice. My cat used to steal my PC chair all the time, especially if I was at my PC and had to get up for any reason, when I came back, he'd be sitting there looking at me with what can only be described as a "now you can't ignore me" face.

 

[xarden]

Cats are cheeky buggers. Mine does that too.
Jokes on him.
I got the spare one down from upstairs, so when he steals it, I just swap them around.
The jokes back on me.
Again when I get up, he switches to the one I was using

Cats and dogs do the same thing haha, they are always just looking for a warm place to lay.

So, I'm still waiting for my new Phenom II x3 to arrive. This seriously sucks, why does international shipping always take so **** long?

It's a plot to make geeks everywhere go crazy. haha.

Any chance your going to be able to unlock a core on that x3?

Now now, let's not get started on conspiracy theories against the little guy.... I could talk for hours on that topic.

I'm not sure if my XFX board will allow me to do that, it's a pretty old chipset from before AM3 CPUs were too popular (my board is only an AM2/AM2+ board anyway)... But even if it does, I think I'll leave that for sometime I can afford to buy another CPU, just in case something goes wrong.

 

[Minotar]

Re-done mine again before the 6870 arrives

Bit blurry,finally got a new camera so i'll get more when I fit the GPU

Looks good Minotar and nice clean wiring to boot.

 

[paulpicks21]

Looks very tidy Minotar , a couple of questions for you...

I assume your case has no holes/vent at the bottom of the case hence the reason you have the fan of your PSU facing upwards?

And secondly , on 99% of rigs I have seen , the the cpu cooler has the fan blowing towards the rear with the rear exhaust fan continuing out the back. Any particular reason yours is pointing upwards?

Not a dig , just interesting to see reasons for different configurations.

Cheers

Paul.

 

[WartHog]

SUHWEET looking rig Minotar.

 

[Dave76]

Very nice clean rig Minotar, good job with the wiring
