Well I decided to do some upgrades to mine. I've changed cases, motherboards and I've ordered an new video card. Check my system specs for details.
This first pic was done with my cell so it's kinda crappy and it has my old 1950XTX in it while I'm waiting for my new 4870x2 to get here

I also changed the blue LED OEM fan on my CPU cooler with a Zalman ZM-F2 92mm Red one..and oh man it looks sweet. I had to cut the plug off of the stock fan and solder the wires for the Zalman fan on it but with the heatsrink on it..it looks like it came that way

Looks great fatboy,

with the design of the case and the red color, it seems like you have this adventure pc to go to the desert with or something.. WARZONE pc

[03hdfatboy]

I went with this case because I was tired of trying to cram stuff in a mid tower and now I'm spoiled, I'll never go back. I wish my Video card would hurry up and get here.

 

[amplid]

By the way, NICE cable management...! I like the coolermasters for that...

Cheers,

Amplid

Well I worked on it 2 nights ago.

Will take some pictures for you all! :D

Okay, so went round to a friends house yesterday to build his Core i7 tri-SLI powerhouse. This was infact take two as I went round last week, but his motherboard was faulty, so he RMA'd that and got an ASUS P6T6 Workstation (very good motherboard btw, even though I've heard bad things about the P6T Deluxe, the P6T6 seems a lot better).

I got quite a few photos of it:

The i7 920 sat in the XFX mobo. Just a pointer about this XFX mobo, as I believe it's misleading - on the XFX website, it boasts "True 3 way SLI". Now only a few x58 mobos have this, as Nvidia need to allow and sell them the GT200 chip, which adds three way SLI with PCI-E 2.0 at full x16 in all 3 slots. Now on closer inspection of the 3rd PCI-E slot on the x58, it only has half the pins inside the PCI-E slot, which means it won't run at full x16, but at x8.

I didn't take a photo of this motherboard as I forgot, but here it is (PCI-E slot galore), but blue slots are the SLI slots, and the 3rd one on this motherboard has all the pins in.

Everything inside. They're 3 8800 Ultras, which he's sticking with for a while. They're still a kick ass card, and most likely the 4th best single card to get (excluding the GX2 cards). The cable management did also get sorted a bit too

The Thermaltake Armour+ (the largest one you can get). It seriously is huge...

And it glowing. There is some UV cold cathodes at the top, but he went OTT with the blue LEDs so it kind of kills the UV.

All that I can say is I loved building this

 

[skunksmash]

:eek::eek: IM GREEN WITH ENVY :eek::eek:

im sure that was very therapeutic, i do love ''the build''

Yea I know what you mean, I love the building part of a PC, too. The first night we did it with the XFX mobo was great until we turned it on and the display didn't work, so after about 4 hours of troubleshooting we gave up, and it did kill the mood knowing it didn't work.

So this time, we bench tested the ASUS mobo, and it worked first time, so it started off good knowing it worked so the mood was better

And I'm very envious of it, too. But I look at my green machine and I'm still happy with that

He's the luckiest person ever as he got them 8800 Ultras for some stupid price, as he lives in a pub, he gets VAT off.

Two of them 8800 Ultras were £150 new, and one he got for £90 :eek:

i cant even scrape enough money together to get another one of my cards, and i cannot get it now because of the core216 260gtx coming in, my birthday soon so hopefully il get some money, so im getting the xxx version of that and sli'ing the 192core and the 216core up together, interesting to find out if it actually works or NV were just talking out of their manholes.
