The Birthday project

mentyl · 22-July-04, 11:04 PM

Well my loving girlfriend just bought me a new case and some goodies for my everyday computer.
I got a PC2-650BU Koolance case, cpu-300 cooler, and multiple UV lights, CC lights, and LED fans, and CC fans, a soyo raptor 500 watt power supply, and various sleeving and other parts.
Whats going in it is a A7N8X-X, Athalon 2800 XP, 2 x 512 DDR PC3200 400MHz Mushkin Cas Black Level 2, and a Geforce fx 5200.
I will do a full member review on the case but as of right now I'm putting it together because I have to get back to work on my Case for the modding competition.

Well pimps an hoes, I got it done, didn't take too long either. Kewlance makes it a snap for watercooling, especially in their cases.

I think the image is broken. It's not displaying.

I will get some pics up, there seems to be something wrong with the server.

Well O.K. I guess GK got right on it, so now I can continue my thread. I have taken the time to hide almost every wire because I can't stand wires, and In my line of work I have to do that also. Hider wires on a car is much easier than inside a case, esp when I have 2 12" uv ccls, 1 80mm UV blue cc fan, 2 80mm blue LED fans, 1 12" blue ccl sound activated, and a volt mod for uping the CPU core voltage.

Also the Soyo Rator power supply comes with a 5.25" monitor/Adjustment panel for the 5 and 3 volt lines, so more wires, but if you up those voltages it increases overclockability.

Here are some glowing pics, my Digi cam doesnt take good dark pics.

I was going with an alien/spaceship type theme with the tubing, I was thinking about it the other day when I watched the first ALIEN movie. Also The new PC2-650 comes with a new front panel, designed like a circuit board behind it, hope you can tell from my pics.

Well I've had it together for two days now and it is holding at 28c with a cpu core voltage of 1.95, and 5.5v and 3.8v on the 5 and 3 volt lines. Also with an OC of 11.5multi 418 fsb at 2403mgz and it is stable. When the air conditioner is not on in my office it jumps to 34c. so it matters greatly on ambient temps just like my exos.
And that is with Folding going 24/7
