    Shades ...because 1.2GHz just isn't fast enough...



    Keep in mind that this is with virtually no tweaking/tuning so far.

    Stay tuned for pictures of this beast (as soon as I find the software installation CD for my digital camera or Palooka sends me a copy of his)...

    Can't wait to overclock this bugger...

    I get a call from the wife today... You got a box from Fed Ex today, I think its your new PC parts. I get home.... it's only my anti-static mat that I ordered yesterday. ROFLMAO Fast delivery, but better off anyways. I want to wait until Friday before I mess with rebuilding this thing but I'll be like a kid in a candy store with my new parts just 'sitting there'. So it's best if they don't come until Thursday or Friday.

    I just got me some new toys also

    ABIT Kr7a-133R
    AMD 2000+
    512MB Corsair 2700 DDR ( rock solid )
    Swiftech cooler.
    PNY GF3 ti500

    At last run I was at 1750 mhz...with no voltage increase...The memory is set to 2/5/2
    I got 9120 3dmark 2001...running at 38C. The system will not heat up at all. It is rock solid running XP. I like it alot

    With tweaking I can make this thing hit 1800+ but that will be for benchmarking only. Have to keep this rig for a while so i cant toast anything.

    As promised...








    Daddy? Can I hel...<yawn>...nevermi...

    Notice the temperature in that pic. My CPU is never above 35F even under the highest of loads... and did I mention that it's all but SILENT? My old rig with the 7K RPM fan sounds like a jet engine by comparison.

    Now off to work on the overclocking...

    Your kid's expression is similar to mine right now. Does all of this hardware mean we can expect to see you in T2 tonight and tomorrow night, playing to defend AK honor?

    Shades

    BOOYAH



    (...because 1.67GHz just isn't fast enough...)

    That's right, kids, 1.826GHz with a 166MHz FSB. Temperatures get all the way up to 94F/34C, but I think I can live with that...

    Zorro,

    Awesome setup! I bet you and I share alot of similar 'favorites' in our browser such as:

    pcmods.com
    pccasemods.com
    coolerguys.com
    hardocp.com
    coolcomputing.com
    gideontech.com

    and others <G> I have a Tornado 1000 from 3dcool.com, but I looked at the case you have very seriously recently... but thought I'd be pushing my luck with the wife a little too far right now.
