    This is my nice little 733mhz Duron with an AGP Nvidia 6200.

    This is me playing on it (or maybe I was asleep, I can't tell).

    Here's a new one. I got my open-box X38 board yesterday, and of course whoever returned it stole the northbridge heatsink... I had none that fit, so I had to rig up my own:



    I got an old northbridge heatsink from a socket 939 motherboard and then cut up some old headphones. I used the insulated wire from the headphones to string up the heatsink to hold it in place. It works well, though it's only a temporary solution.

    My addition to the thread - A toolbox PC. 1.1Ghz CPU, 384mb ram, 12Gb HDD, TV-out card. It has a wireless keyboard and mouse if required but it's main interface is a trackball I bought on eBay from an old Air traffic control tower.

    Its used as a karaoke machine as a I didn't own a laptop at the time and it seemed a good use of some bits and pieces I had lying around.

    i7 cardboard duct

    The airflow in my case is reversed so the intake is in the back and the exhaust is in the front.
    This cardboard duct is taped to the 120 mm intake fan and directs the airflow to the stock i7 920 cooler reducing my temps by around ~7 degrees Celsius.




    Running at a comfortable ~70 Celsius 100% load on all cores and ~35 idle with the case cover closed and the ambient room temperature is ~75 F. Running it at 3.33 Ghz Prime stable 12+ hours. By the way the case is a LIAN LI PC-A05B, very good case IMHO.

    cos the sli link cable is on the bottom and its pretty easy to open up the dual pcb's and fit 2 blocks on the card

    I see. the cards were stuck together at one point. They run toghether through the sli bridge? what powers the second card?

    *n/m just read a review on that card. There getting pretty tricky with how there doing sli these days.

    Does it split the 16x slot into 8x per card? lol Im just full of stupid questions this morning. Nice mod non the less.

    ammm its sort of like the 4870 x2 but instead if having the gpus on 1 pcb the 9800gx2 has 2 of them and are connect via connector that uses sli technology and it actually has 2 bridges that connect the 2 pcb's

    here take a look
