Carbine's Rig Set-up

[Carbine]

One thing i need to do though is either change my DVDRW for a SATA version of get the smallest IDE cable i can find. The yellow ones DFI provide are rather big as you can see in the pics.

I'm leaving the side panels off for the summer as my rooms the hottest in the house and so room temp is between 25-30c especially at night.

As it stands:

CPU @ 25c idle

@ 31c load

GPU @ 42c idle (overclocked not massively, only around 50mhz increase on core and memory)

@ 46c load

Ram @ 41c idle and no change at load

Chipset @ 42c idle and no change at load

Aquadrive @ 34c idle and around 37c load/write

ps. will take photos again once my hand stops shaking lol

The CPU will be overclocked later as i want to make sure everything burnt in well

There is still one more slot in the drives i have to fill and thats going to be a VL-Systems M-Play controller which should arrive by Tuesday

Edit. Oh and a 320Gb Seagate 7200.10 is on the way to replace my corrupt HDD as well as a Seagate 750Gb to act as a back up for all of my other stuff.

Overall desk shot of the case....

...as well as my new and yummy Logitech G15 Keyboard. A must have!

That is very, very nice mate. I see you've got the new icybox, do you find that it makes the entire desk vibrate?

What a monster! - I like it

Is Carbine your CS:S name by any chance?

(or is it KPC I've seen u...)

 

[ZaX]

Nice neat setup there, you'll have some fun when it comes to overclocking it.

Hello all again.. long time no reply.. been a little too busy with stuff.

That is very, very nice mate. I see you've got the new icybox, do you find that it makes the entire desk vibrate?

Fortuately enough, it doesn't vibrate at all... then again thats probably because i have a Spinpoint inside which is relatively quiet anyways. I use that as a back up considering i can only fit a maximum of 2 HDD's in my rig.

Thanks very much! The name Carbine used to be my CS alias but now use Revo|utioN for clan matches and Fluffy or Fluffybugger Cocobutter as random pub matches... an no, i don't play CS:S... /me sticks to beloved cs1.6

Oh and yes, i'm also on KPC under the same alias. Me remembers you

Nice neat setup there, you'll have some fun when it comes to overclocking it.

Would do but my sister just bought me a e6600 so i'm getting ready to swap out my current kit for that along with my Asus P5W DH Mobo and GSkill 2Gb HZ6400 ram which will be arriving shortly.

Got some updated pics of my rig

Heres the set-up all finished: (3.4Ghz 1.4v)

And here are the temps:

^^Messy photo IMO. Need to tidy up GPU res and IDE cable

 

[boardy]

Oooo, what's the cooler you have on the mosfets to the right of the CPU?

All water cooled, I like it!

[Phil Stanbridge]

Very nice indeed - a reasonably intricate loop as well! I love the DDR water cooling.
