Well, i cant rememeber if i did post anything about what i'm doing with my rig. I have bought a much nicer case now (i would've preferred something bigger but i am a little restricted when it comes to space!) -
Lian Li PC-A16B Aluminium Full-Tower - Black
I have also acquired some watercooling kit (Swiftech), and a Coolit TEC with no pump, hence we have another pump and plan to use this in the loop.
I gave my bf my 8800 card in exchange for his 7950 GX2 as he was using vista and has a bigger monitor than me, so he is able to utilise it better than me. The original plan was to use a spacer kit and watercool the GX2 as i didn't want to pull off the custom EVGA ACS cooler from the 8800. However, i may be able to get hold of one of the new ATi/AMD cards - the 2900 XT. Not as great as the 8800 as far as i have heard, but alot easier to sort the cooling out, and i would have a dx10 capable card.
Finally, on a whim, we decided to buy an Asus P5K3 DDR3 board -
Asus P5K3 Deluxe WiFi Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard
a friend of ours mite have us some DDR3 in a couple of weeks, if not we'll buy a couple of sticks of this -
Kingston 512mb Ddr3 1066mhz Memory Non-ecc Cl7 Dimm
until we have enough capital to buy Some of the Corsiar DDR 3 with the DHX heatsinks (as i have the Dominator fan module) -
Corsair 2GB DDR3 DHX 1333C9DHX TwinX (2x1GB)
Oh, and i changed my CPU from an E6400 to an E6320, lower core speed but it is a Conroe with the bigger Cache rather than the Allendale with the smaller cache. It should clock to about the same with the watercooling in place.
O yeah, bought my third raptor too :-)
Comments guys :P
