Glad everyone liked the video!

I have to start planning how to package it for shipping so it stays nice for Glitterkill.

Thanks Bro! It helps working with you and Twizted. You guys don't mind being recorded and being yourselves

I love making these videos. This is the 2nd video that I've used my own music with GarageBand Early on I used some copyrighted tunes in my videos. I'm just happy I can break away from doing that now.

Damn... that is just... DAMN! :p

Cannot wait to see her with some shizzlin hot gear inside.

Anyone sent off some links / pics to the various magazines yet? Would be a seriously good bit of PR (get it? ho ho) for the site... and may even end up getting GK some kick ass (free) goddies to go inside? ;-)

WOOHOO! Our friends at ULTRA have come through again for us! They are funding the buy of the main PC components for the gaming side of the rig!

$1250 is the budget and these are the parts I will be ordering:

Intel Q6600 Quad Core CPU
EVGA 680i SLI Motherboard (T1 version)
EVGA 8800GTX
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi ExtremeGamer Sound Card
x3 Hitachi 250GB SATA 3G NCQ Hard Drives

I will be ordering this stuff on Thursday!

That's gonna be a helluva difference over the Athlon 64 X2 3800+ and my x2 Nvidia 6800's (the weaker, 12 pipeline version)! I will probably have a hard time sleeping for the next week I am so excited!

EDIT // RAM is now sponsored as well!

Super Talent is going to outfit both systems with some sweet RAM... here is what is going where:

Gaming PC: x2 TX1000UX2G5 DDR2 (PC2-8000) Kits (4GB total)
Server PC: T667RB2G4 ECC DDR2 (PC2-5300) Kit (2GB total)


That should round one helluva gaming system and the server side should be great as well. For the server CPU I am using a n Intel 3.2 GHz Extreme Edition CPU that I have had in a HTPC case for a while. I will be putting a plain 2.4GHz in the HTPC instead. The hard drives on the server will be my recycled 120GB SATA drives in a RAID 1 array while the x3 SATA2 drives will be in RAID 5 on the gaming PC.

I have contacted Integrity-PC to see if they would be willing to send some of their Deep Purple FluidXP Extreme for use in the cooling systems. Keeping my fingers crossed! If they say no, I will probably use my good old home-made mixture.

Gotta love sponsorship! lol

Those boys at ULTRA really deserve a big thumbs up - awsome that a company is so keen to give back to the people that ultimately buy their gear.

Going to be one sweet setup up.

So hows things going in terms of magazine covers etc? Must have been some interest

OK I got word this morning that FluidXP is going to send a gallon of their new coolant: FluidXP Ultra. Here is the only info they have posted about this new coolant so far:




After the system is completely assembled early next week, I will get plenty of performance numbers for your viewing; including benchmark and cooling performance scores before and after overclocking.

markwalker84: No word yet on any covers or features... Then again, I haven't sent out any emails yet, either. Once the system is fully up and running next week then I will start the email barrage.
