here is mine.

I believe I just took 3rd place. Mark my word ill be in first once my OG project is done. (see my thread in CPU and OC)

VR's, Water blocks, and benching oh my! So today begins the actual journey down the path to maxing out my system. Lets have a recap. I just want to say that I do not have any screen shots of the benches as I was too wrapped up in the moment but I do have some specs and pics of the modded card...

I didnt get a chance to read the whole thread but I voted fro the GTX 280 because it will be the best fit for you. But be warned there is a 75% return rate on them because Nvidia is messing up the thermal paste and the cards are overheating. EVGA is the ONLY manufacturer who tests them BEFORE...

56K Dialup WARNING!!! LOTS OF PICTURES! Sup guys. I just recently decided that nothing currently on the market really whets my appetite so I am going to mod the living shit out of my current rig. First off here is a list of specs and mods. Then I will be keeping a worklog of everything. My goal...

You can replace that. I used to do it back in the day. If you want you can ship me the card and I'll fix is for ya. A new cap is only like $5.

Better late than never. But I have the Logitech Z-5500's are they are epic. ~Tim

2.0 has double the bandwidth. Its utterly un-necessary seeing as our current cards don't saturate the PCIE 1.0 X16 slots yet.

ASUS G1Sn-XX. The ASUS G1Sn series is under $1500 and will run anything on the market. It also has eSATA and beautiful display. Oh and a free 1 year accidental warranty and 2 year standard warranty. I have it and I love the thing.

Sounds like you have a defective motherboard and/or keyboard. You best have that sucker RMA'ed before other stuff starts breaking. Or maybe you should try re-formatting it first. My mothers laptop was doing that and it was the motherboard.

Because you touch yourself at night? lol jk But seriously. Its because there are different revisions and wattage capacities for different laptops. The T5XXX will draw more juice than the T2XXX. They change that one pin because they don't want you putting, lets say a 90 watt CPU on a 45 watt...

Get a 780i?

Those are terrible for that low of an overclock. I never breach 50-55C at full load at 4.5ghz!

I am trying for 5.0ghz on water but my good ol' 680i just dosent want to do it... ~Tim

I uploaded the pictures of during the mod: Click the picture to view the gallery.

Maybe he wants to add it in later. That is what I did. But you are an ATI guy so waht do you know about SLI? :P jk

I hate when people use this to retort. Realistically are you going to still have that slow 2.4ghz quad core 2-3 years from now? Here is the thing yes in theory it sounds good BUT....When the games that ACTUALLY use more than 2 cores come out and are considered mainstream your 2.4ghz quad will be...

Have you seen the quake live beta? I am in it right now! Its Quake 3 Arena FREE ONLINE! It runs through your web browser and can be played fullscreen. http://www.quakelive.com/ ~Tim

For gaming get the Dual. I am assuming you are looking at either the Q6600 or the E8400. I have both and I used the E8400 for my gaming rig. The Q6600 is now in my gameserver.
