The while thing in the middle is my Monster DIY projector.
The gray PC on the right is my GF's PC, Opteron 144 @ 2500Mhz 1.375V. Too bad the board is limiting me, could do 2800Mhz with 1.4V on my lanparty :/
The one in the middle my surfing rig consisting of a Biostar Tforce and a naked S754 Sempron 2800+ @ 2850Mhz 1.55V set in Bios, 1.51V real.
The one behind it is my gaming rig. E6600 @ 3.6GHz 1.4V - 4GHz 1.6V
A closer look:

2 of my HDDs recently died and I was able to get one of them semi working again, which is why there are many DVDs. Used them to abck up the files I was able to recover

Here are my AXP based systems. Just recently replaced the 1.6Ghz Duron an a Asus A7N8X with a A64 3000+ which is running in a different room.
The black one on the left is my good old 0308 XPMW 1700+ DLT3C running at 2300Mhz at 1.6V.
I could never sell it :)
The silver Shuttle is my HTPC, well at least it was before it started crunching.
That was the fastest Shuttle at Sudhedian.com (or whatever that shuttle forum page was called, cant remember).
I was kinda pissed when I got the unremovable black screen issue after 10hours of usage. Had to wait 3 weeks for them to fix it. After that the soundstorm didnt work, after the Shuttle was laying in a shelf for a couple months.
After that got kinda angry and did some mods:
Cut out the rear grill for a push and pull config, did my first vdimm mod, placed a fan below the drive bay, so that fan is blowing directly at the rams and NB, removed the stock NB cooler, lapped it (was 4 days of work, I will never lap ceramique again!) and placed a Thermalright NB1-C on it with a selfmade mounting. That TR was as expensive as a cpu cooler :fact:
But the result was really good. I had 72C load temps before the mods and after them 45C, which was more like it.
Was able to run 250*10, which was the max of the Bios. Didnt know clockgen at that time, so I will give it a try again when I have the time to.
That Shuttle mainboard surprised me, it clocks better than my unmodded NF-7S.
Now you know why the Mrs. isn't a Mrs. but an EX-Mrs.:DQuote:

Since that isn't going to happen I guess I'll just have to build another PC or 2 to catch up to gr8golf!

Money for cases goes a long way towards another machine.Nobody in this house cares about cases.When the wife or children can access the internet from anywhere in the house they are happy.Quote:

When you live in an old house dust is a fact of life.Doesn't impact the performance at all.Kind of act like insulation on sub 0.I would have to shut them down for an extended period of time each week to clean.Rather they just crunch on.
this is true. a lot of retail servers even come with HDDs installed upsidedown. not sure why, but they do.Quote:

Did some math yesterday and if we added 150 clovertown systems we'd be at app 4.4 million a day in WCG..
See,simple, just 150 machines at a cost of app $2200.00 each..:D
hmm, 150 times $2200.00 =$330,000.00
hmm, time to call NJKID and have him get out his checkbook!
If he can get by all the moths first!:rolleyes:
Currently i use
p4 2.0gig / 512mb ram at (my main work pc, so its only running at night)
ive also set up my new 2.8gig p4 / 1gig ram for work (so this will be running at night and the 2.0gig will be on all day)
athlon xp-m 2500 @ 2gig (ive got a crap chip) / 1 gig of ram at home which is on while im at work
phelan1777, nice that setup - 1500 pc's at work ... use a few that will deployed last ;)
at my workplace im in charge of building and setting up 500 .. 3gig xeons with 2gig of ram :cool: but unfortunatly i cant use any :(
VERY good point! I get machines in for work and sometimes there here for a couple days.they work when they are here. Your basic cheapo P4-2660 will crank 1500 in a day..Quote:

It all adds up.:D
