[kbrady1979]

Congrats on the badge ganjiry, and a bigger congrats for making your little girl very happy. As a father of a nine year old girl, it's a special feeling to see them light up! I was fortunate enough this year to get to see that look on her face when she saw the Mace Windu Force FX lightsaber I got her..............good times! Again, congratulations!

Kelly

I've been wondering where my lightsaber was.

Unfortunately, you will have to fight her for it! lol

moneybagman, that's a great build. You did a good wiring job, and believe me, we all know what that takes. Well done, great job.

 

[moneybagman]

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. I really like spreading my games across two screens and having like a panoramic view, it's pretty awesome, but best of all, it is extremely quiet! I love listening to my music without hearing my computer's fan rev up, lol. It was definitely an upgrade from my old Inspiron 15r laptop.

 

[ganjiry]

Great job moneybagman, Nice tidy cables too

Very nice rig moneybagman. Very clean layout.

Btw, how loud is the the Thermaltake 2.0 Extreme?

[linnemeyerhere]

Outstanding spec's and great job with the install. The whole package came out clean looking and looks to be performing top notch. I'm loving my Thermaltake Extreme cooler what's your first impression? That GPU is a monster with it's 3 gb. The only thing is the drive bays look lonely but the air flow I'm sure is great! Overall a killer build !

 

[moneybagman]

Yeah, I was considering getting an extra few TBs of mem to go with my SSD, but I have yet to decide whether or not that is going to happen. I am loving my Thermaltake water 2.0 extreme, it is really quiet. At first I could hear the water getting pumped through the system because the fans were so quiet, but I can't hear it anymore for whatever reason. I guess the air bubbles must have fixed themselves The fans if you don't use the software provided will run really fast and can get pretty loud. So if you decide to run off of another software instead of the meh GUI that Thermaltake provides, you will have to adjust the fan speeds yourself probably.

Just be warned, if you do decide to get his product, remember this: there is a part of the instructions that tells you to plug the pump power cable into the mobo. Do not do this! You must plug the power for the pump into a power cable supplied by your PSU. I learned this the hard way and lost my CPU fan port

 

[LittleJay]

Very impressive moneybagman! Makes me think I should redo the cabling inside my PC, from the way it came from the factory.

 

[Pedroc1999]

That is great rig.... And yes a HUGE improvment over your lappy

 

[Britton30]

Just thought I would give an update like I promised

Really nice setup and cable managnment.

 

[Pedroc1999]

Yes great cable tidy. The case is a rly good one for it

 

[bassfisher6522]

Very nice rig moneybagman....liking the dual monitor setup.

 

[Pedroc1999]

I am running a temporary dual monitor and it is so helpful. Cant believe im gonna have to go back to single monitor

 

[moneybagman]

Gosh, I just got dual screen and I don't know how I could ever go back. I would hate to have to work without a second screen now that I have been exposed to the glory of two monitors.

And thanks bass, I made sure to get a pair of really nice monitors. These things have like 3k+ reviews on newegg with an average of 5 eggs. They are really nice to look at and come with some pretty cool software built in to enhance your viewing experience.

 

[Pedroc1999]

On monday i will have to give up my dual monitor setup and go back to single. I am so sad

 

[ZaLiTH]

On monday i will have to give up my dual monitor setup and go back to single. I am so sad

That is quite sad.. Why you losing your second monitor though? I've been running dual monitor at work for about 3 years, I still wish I had a second one at home though.

Anyway, in other news I just replaced the fan controller that came with my case with a Zalman MFC1. Definitely looks a lot better now.

Out with the old...

And in with the new... (excuse the dust, my baby needs another clean sometime soon)

 

[Pedroc1999]

Soooo. I had a new tv for christmas that will be in my bedroom. We are thinking of hanging in on the wall with a bracket.... Thing is the bracket was too big and my dads friend is going to laser cut it to perfection. He will be finished by monday and the tv will be on the wall by tuesday..... Thats my very sad story
