[geek]Damn, that shit is sick. What are you cooling it with?[/geek]

there are 2 fans pushing air out and 4 fans pushing air in...we added a new case door which has a HUGE fan on it wish rushes air into the big typhoon which is pusing to the chip...before we added the typhoon and the door fan the cpu and mb were running low 50c....we are now in the low 40's which is much better for operation...

edit* we thought about water cooling but opted not to...

Did you see the movie? It's when they tried to make the time machine, lol.

Why not water cooled?

i never saw the movie...

and we didnt use water cooled cause it wasnt our pc...we would rather the user not have to worry about it...if it were a pc for us then yes we would have used it...

you have a nice setup there...

there is a change in the one i posted...didnt realize the power supply was still the 680...we upgraded it to a 750...and we didnt post specs for periphs as the user didnt purchase them from us...he is using what he already has which is shitty cause after he showed it to anthony (steve c is the producer of the opie and anthony show) anthony went out and bout a 42 or 46" plasma for his pc cause he was not happy with what steve was getting...

2 Q's:

1. how much did it cost you to put that sucker together?

2. what are you using it for? music? design? storing porn? :biggrin:

it's a beaut!

1. It cost us about $10,000 (give or take) to build just the tower.

2. Its not for me. My company built it for the producer of the opie and anthony show so he can run his website and stuff with it. He uses it to do everything with music, video and whatever else. We built him a server and this desktop.

and thank you :)
