It's been quite a long time, but here it is in its current form...

Original Post______________________________________________
Well, it's been about two years since I pieced my last computer together, and now I guess it's time for another one. I released sort of a teaser video today, but there will be more details to come later next week. :)

should it not be "soom™"
I've run into some compatibility issues, so there may be some delays. :)Quote:

looks good :D i love red!
Funny how it almost always boils down to thermal efficiency.
I remember having to spray prototype 3DFX, S3 and ATI GPUs with freeze spray during evaluation testing. Never did have that problem with Matrox or NVidia. Was damned funny to be trucking along in a 2D video test and see the entire machine just freeze; spray it with a little freeze spray and it would pick back up again for a bit.
I like the case, though I cringe at the dust management.
You look to young to have a Sega Genesis emulator. Do you play Shadowrun? ;)
Beautiful work on your video.
This is my first attempt at any sort of water setup (CPU only), and I'm liking the results. That's why the next step forward is going to me putting everything under custom water. Doing so is a bit restrictive when it comes to upgrading, and that was why I initially didn't choose to do that with the GPUs, but I think I'll be okay because I have GPUs which should last me at least another year. I don't think I'd put the GPUs under a 'complex' water loop (which couldn't be re-used) if I was expecting to change them out in only a few months.Quote:

However, because it's so open it does make cleaning everything just that much easier.Quote:

That's a good point.Quote:

All that aside, it really is a pretty build. One I'm sure would look right at home in some big sweepstakes PC giveaway. ;)
