I'm speechless.

total goodness.

Awesome man! How much did you spend on this???

All I can say is......WOW. That beast looks amazing. What are the specs again?!?

That is damn cool looking. Mad props all around.

Wow... Thats sure is pretty. I could stare at that all day and drool.. Nice!!

I hope you keep that rig out on display rather than under a table or desk. That is just too sweet looking to be hidden under a desk.

Thank you very much guys

@Sodius, this one will be on display for sure

@sirsiddius, we were joking no harm done

What no frostchill?
After throwing everything but the kitchen sink at your build you might as well go for  those sexy compression fittings as well.

No thanks on the T-shirt, No way are you nuts

@titusmckieus when I ordered half of this stuff was not available, for example I had to special order the 1500w psu cause back in august they didnt' even carry it, in short the config you see is made today and not my original config, so the shirt was not an option back then.

@ablahblah, cpu is at 4.4,tho I'm sure justin wants a go at it and I would love to see what he can do with it, I also am gonna mess with it, but I know justin will probably achieve higher results being a benchmarker.

lol me and you both

I had DS purchase them for me, don't remember exactly how much the total was, also I got 140mm and 120mm, I think they were around 15 to $20 a piece.

I custom ordered a lot of things, rads, pump heads, fans, tubes, fluid, etc.

why can't you? but if you are on a budget, then you want better fans. these are more of a looker then a performer if you will, you can get better fans for the same money probably.

Edited by DST4ME - 14 Apr 2010 at 3:22am

Lol I want them for looks not for performance...

What a system here !! I am just curious what your core temps max out at when running things that hit the CPU's 100%.

Ohhhh those are nice temps thx Alex

@OutlawedPanther, thats why I got shades on when I look at it

@Bullseye, go for it then.

@Fearnot, thanks boss, I can't wait

@neilkaz, looks like Alex answered your question, and its the first time I had heard those myself


lol but still it does not hold a candle to drunken monkey

Great temps !! I do see that you have some upgrades from Stage 3 cooling and have as many fans as a small windmill farm
