Bokishi Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Woohoo we will gots the same cases I'm thinking that I'm going to add an accessory window to replace the standard door http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811999760 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought this was interesting, It looks like a CM Stacker 830 knock-off doesn't it? Clicky!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That big plastic fan makes the case look uber-cheap looking. Current 3DMark

WITHTEETH Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 (edited) Is ur comp built yet? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm waiting on the case to come in and also which motherboard to get ever since the review on the Striker extreme 680i EDIT: It should be done shortly after new years Edited December 10, 2006 by WITHTEETH Always outnumbered, never out gunned!

Bokishi Posted December 10, 2006 Posted December 10, 2006 Go for the EVGA 680i. I read lots of good reviews on it. Current 3DMark
WITHTEETH Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 I'm pretty sure I'm going to get the P5W DH Deluxe Motherboard. Has a lot of features, stable, even when over clocked, can over clock pretty well. Ill be ecstatic if I can get the FSB up to 400, and I've heard of much higher on this board. It has Wifi, great expansion/upgrade options, stable BIOS. And its much less then the previous striker extreme i wanted that was MSRP for $400. its listed for $226 at zipzoomfly.com I feel this is the one. Always outnumbered, never out gunned!

metadigital Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 I'm actually having a huge problem with dust in my system at the moment, Mets. And this isn't any normal dust we're talking about. It's that pressurized, compressed McNasty dust that attaches itself all over the mobo and other components. As with an unwelcomed date, I can get rid of it with a can of pressurized air but it just keeps coming back. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> All you can do is filter the air intake and keep a higher pressure inside the case (to prevent air coming in, except when it is sucked in where it is meant to be). You could move your PC to a clean room, and vacuum yourself every time you enter. ) OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
WITHTEETH Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 Changing the air filter to your house always helps the PC, and its good for the cats too! Always outnumbered, never out gunned! Unreal Tournament 2004 Handle:Enlight_2.0 Myspace Website! My rig

metadigital Posted December 12, 2006 Posted December 12, 2006 It'd be difficult to get them to stand still long enough for the concrete to dry ... OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

Bokishi Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 Whoops, turns out that window is not compatible with the Stacker 830.. Its building block design owns however Current 3DMark
angshuman Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I thought you had an 8800GTX... those look like puny 7800GTs. <_<

Sand Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 That looks like my missing screwdriver! GIVE THAT BACK!

They aren't meant for games.

jaguars4ever Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Only a botched transistor IIRC. But yeah, most pre-release cards are gimped to cash out on graphics whores...well, like Bok. "
Kroney Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 Decided on the first part of my new upgrade. An MSI P965 Neo-F. Nice and cheap for what you get and offers a reasonable future-proofing. Dirty deeds done cheap.
jaguars4ever Posted December 15, 2006 Posted December 15, 2006 There's no such thing as future-proofing in this hobby. You'll get the same usual six months (or less) before the hardware is second best once again.
