Project: Day and Night *SG02-F SFF*

[ownage]

Great project man. We should have a SFF gallery.

[Gir92]

Evil I'll pay for shipping on that dead Q9450 since it's dead.

At least it would be pretty to look at

its good to have a chip to reference, and im going to dissect it anyways
im sure you could find a bunch of duds everywhere

Do you plan on taking the IHS off? Take pics, I've only seen a Q6600 without an IHS, never a 45nm quad.

update

i got a Q9550 (C1.. wish it was a E0) and a slot feed dvd burner
worst part is i got 2 stuck sensors... what is up with that? super
bad luck or something? i hate that.. one of the reasons why i tried
to RMA my Q9450.. i had 1 stuck sensor and now i got 2! its so annoying...

and im getting some REALLY weird temps, but i can trust them because
of the sensors

you think sensors ever unstuck themselves?
anyways, i put a fatter heatsink on the NB and it loads at 35C (via smart guardian)
havent decided where to put the rom yet, maybe side ways next to the PSU

well see, cheers

thanks

someone talk me into buying more stuff...

i need another CPU block, i gave my dtek v2 to my gf well because her
apogee drive fitting broke when i was draining and refill her loop...

ive got the supreme on the none fuctional homewrecker and i plan to leave
it there but since its not in commission i guess i could use it first..

you guys think a MCR320 could handle a Q9550 (OCed moderately probably like @ 4... ) and the two 4870s... ha

unless my CPU stays on AIR which i rather not... lol

i wish sleeping wasnt so nice.. i stay up to 3 banging and drilling in my room
then i get up at 6 to get ready for work... ha

theres not enough time in the day, we should add a few hours a day and get rid of leap year

No way men........nevermind that..........

To make 4Ghz stable and fresh :p :p :p you will need at lest, another apogee GT

[twwen2]

More evil! You need more stuff!

I'll make a list to start you off:

Swifty GTZ for CPU
2nd MCR320 to handle 2 x 4870s and Quad

You could even go dual loop!
Just imagin that, a dual-loop SFF!

... im going for a dual loop lol

first i need a new block to commit to the project
first.. which i definitely can not afford! (seriously! lol)
now that ive moved the PSU and got the slim drive
i could probably get away with dual MCR320s! haha
well see

damn it! now you have me rethinking everything again
poor wallet, its already small to begin with hahah

[Nate P.]

This is one monster build you got going here, evil!

hey! thanks yea its getting pretty big and pretty monstrous

Yes, YES!!!!

My wallet is about as thin as yours...

does yours have anything in it? lets trade

i think im going to use my supreme on this build

[twwen2]

Hey we're gonna have very similar builds soon bro!

Same mobo, same CPU WB, same GFX card etc. Just different case

[charles_h]

Glad to see you're back in business!

I'm assuming that's a laptop optical drive; did you get an interface for it so you can use it in your system?

i saw your thread, nice parts i love that case and all the EK love

thanks charles, yea its a laptop or a slimline drive which uses a slimline ide (aka JAE 50 "50 because its a 50 pin connector")

so ill be ordering a sata to jae adapter which looksing something like this



they also have ide to jae, right now im looking for a red or black PCB adapter... $16 for an adapter i better then it in the color i want

edit:








i found this one but its $25 + shipping... but it looks nice

[Kibbler]

hey evil, what brand slimline drive is that? I was looking for a Panasonic UJ875 slimline slot loader, but went with a Sony/NEC sata tray loader instead, out of placement and dust concerns. I'm excited to see how you will mount it, will it be internal?

Fantastic build man

[affiliate13]

Lovely work. Very nice white case

[evil-98]

whats faster ide or usb 2.0? its really hard to find a adapter
tho newegg gots a really nice ide to jae 50 adapter for 5 bucks

i dont want to have to order it overseas just to get it in sata interface..

[craigbru]

Very nice build! A man after my own SFF heart... You other guys and your full size cases... pfft...

[twwen2]

Hey evil i had no idea those slot-loading drives needed an adaptor!
Looks like you got things sorted tho...

[charles_h]

Thanks for all the info on the JAE adapters Bro. I agree that the red one looks best. Looking forward to seeing how yours works out.

I'll be coming to you for help with mine.
