Press any key Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 Well, I've never seen anything like that. What are the specs?You got three H/D's. Slaves or RAID backup?What is an OTES RAMflow? Some double fan cooler for the CPU. Why is it called RAMflow?Did you get the plastic exhaust pipe you see on my case? Does everyone?I had such a heck of a job to get the OEM to leave out the floppy, (at my expense) broke his heart. Could not bring myself to say ditch the 56K modem as well.The case is designed with the floppy slot, but I just consider it an extra cooling slot!Will we ever be able to move into the future now .. and let go of the past 56K and 3 1/2" 1.44Mb? Not really, everyone will come back and swear they use these things every day and cannot live without them. Bit like Microsoft will not let go of paint - when they could have gotten us an OLD PhotoImpact, say 5 or 6 plus a vector with Xara Xtreme.Such is life..

puntoMX Posted March 31, 2006 Posted March 31, 2006 Those Plastic exhaust pipes only come on some cases, I believe it sits above the CPU to help airflow?Yes, it´s an intake aimed at the cpu fan, it´s not an exhaust pipe . and indeed it keep your CPU a bit cooler, I use them too in my cheap a** 40US$ cases .
Grope For Luna Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) I used to use an intake pipe on mine too, although it was a little more ghetto (old peanut can ). A while ago I got fed up with the noise and ripped everything out, mounted it on a board and stuck it up on a beam in the basement. I converted my DVDRW to a USB unit and routed all my cables through the floor. Now it's in the cool basement and I hear nothing but silence. Edited April 8, 2006 by Grope For Luna

No, I like taxying down the runway in my 747. Maybe I can watch the inflight movie. If I could hear it. I always wanted to watch movies on a little screen and in an uncomfortable office chair. Must get VISTA with the built in Media Center. ------Maybe I should get one of these?The blueprint showed a central PowerPC that was complemented by 1024 (that is one thousand and twenty four) 8-bit "processing elements" on a single and - according to IBM - low-cost die.Rapport is already offering the Kilocore256, which comes with 256 processing elements and provides a performance of "25 GB operations/second at well under a single watt of power," IBM said.

IBM introduced those CPUs on the Cbit I think. Are you going to write your own OS like for the XBox360 again? It will NOT run windows like you use it on your small rig.

jago_lfn Posted April 16, 2006 Posted April 16, 2006 (edited) I got the last of my parts in the other day so my box is complete after 4 months of saving money to order here and there. Last of the parts were the ram, cathodes, and sata adapters for my old ata drives. Removed the 80gig drive and added the audigy gamer from my old computer. Also gave the logitech mx1000 to my wife, i never could get used to it. Put my dvdrw in external enclosure to use on different computers. This computer should last me a few years till i build a new one for vista after it's been out a while Final pictures sorry about the crap quality, my nikon 2200 isnt up to par anymore:Specs:Antec Super LANBoyThermalTake 430W PSUAbit Fatal1ty AN8OEM Athlon64 3400+ 2.2GHZ @ 2.5GHZ CPU-Z ValidationThermalTake CL-P0200 939 Silent Copper HeatpipeOCZ EL Platinum 2x1024MB @ 232Mhz 2.5-3-2-5EVGA Geforce 6800 GS CO SE 256mb PCI-E x16 @ 475/1100Seagate 250GB SATA150Seagate 200GB ATA100 w/ Syba SATA to ATA133 adapterLite-On DVD-ROM 16xPioneer DVR-110D in USB/Firewire EnclosureCreative Audigy Gamer PCIM$ Keyboard Logitech LX5 Wireless Optical Mouse and X-Trac Pro HS mousepadBelkin Nostromo n50 USBBelkin USB LED light so I can see keyboard with lights out Edited April 16, 2006 by jago_lfn
