It's that time again. Scratchin' that itch. Overselling desk real-estate to build a new rig.
For those of you that were following my last rig, you may remember that I never put the "finished" cap on it...
>_>
Well, I lit a card on fire because of a leak; well, actually.... never mind, I recounted it in the other worklog in my sig at the end.
The point is, I'm not going to let this one stall.
I already have the 980a mounted as well as the Supreme Gold I got a while back with the tasty Blue Tracers in a fantastic Fortress with a window.
There's a BFG 600W in there somewhere, but I got it from Micro Center and it's nothing special.
Oh, and two 150GB V-raptors for RAID-0 and two 500GB Caviars for RAID-1.
I'll be using a DD x-flow rad for the CPU and GPU. There's no overclocking, and it's pretty high FPI so I'm hoping it'll work out fine. I'd rather not hang a 120.2 off the back, but we'll see. Using the EK pump with res attached; gonna mount it on a 3.5-5.25 with the EK pump tray jawn. Not sure if it's gonna be silver/UV blue 3/8" ID feser tubes or clear, but there's definitely going to be a mix of Primochill dye-bombs (which I made a mess with twice! I HATE THEM) to try to get a blue-green-ish color at least in the res.
This is for my girlfriend, who needs a desktop, and I need to put something together. Win-win. She's getting the 275 that was replaced (new and not refurb'd).
Should be a pretty good project. I'm jealous of her case.
Pics when I'm home from work. If I can tear myself away from Pokemon Black. :P
Hello again everybody! Good to be back!
