Well i was saving up for a nice new truck and have saved up 15grand but now that i have realized how high my insurance would be i am planning on gettin an older rig...
ok now that u know my situation...should i get a machI? it is out dated and if i am corect it wont work on the newer systems "aka" the new 64bit amd's and on the systems comin out in the near future. but the machII is just to much for my liking...is there any way to mod the head on the mach1 to accomidate for the new mounting?
In the works... P5wdh | E6600 | G-skill 6400 hz | Ocz Gamextreme 700w | 2x Wd 250 raid-0 | 7600gs until i get my x1950pro
Main Rig: - Ic7-g 2.4c @3.3 1.6v| 2x 256mb corsahair 3500 2-3-3-5 | 9700128mb | Antec430 truepower | mcw478uht cpu @ 10c full load
Server:- Epox 8rda+ 2100 @ 2.4 1.85v | 2x 256 corshair 3200 twinx | msi5200 | TTGI520 | slk800 40c full load soon to be watercooled.....
currently, both mach 1 and 2 would need a custom mount for the a64's...
as for which 1 to get, it depends how much you can still get the mach 1 for

what do u mean still....? is it not being produced any more? i thought it was like 450 then like 40 or so for the seal string and mounting hardware...?Originally posted by gokickrocks

XTW still has Mach 1s listed on their site.

Wouldnt it be more effiecent towards your money, if you dedicated some time and built your own single stage system?
I talked to Nventiv and they said that Mach I does NOT have reset issues with the A64 boards. Is this true? nVENTIV is in the process of releasing the A64 cpu mounting kit and it will be out soon.
gokickrocks meant that their not available now but they will be soon. Any company serious about its customers will develop cpu kits for its new platforms.
Mach I and Mach II have almost the same temps. Only difference is Mach II supports all motherboards, has intergration/control through software, has a more flexible hose and I think thats it.
what was the issue with the a64 mobo's? and the cpu mounting kit for the A64 is for both mach I and II? so my big question is why is the machII 1000 bux? is it just because it has the "intergration/control through software, has a more flexible hose and I think thats it."? and when u say the machII supports all mobos what are u reffering to? as in how it mounts to the mother board?
thanks and sorry for all the ?'s i believe this is one of the few threads ive actually started
