Prepare to drool...

[dave87]

Hey Guys,

Just thought I'd show some pictures of the rig I built for a mate today...prepare to drool...

Specs:

P182 (I think)

Corsair HX520 PSU

Core2Duo E6600 @ 2.4ghz

Scythe Ninja HS & 120mm Fan

4gb (4x1gb) DDR2-6400 (800mhz)

BFG 8800 GTS 320 OC

P5B Deluxe WiFi

2x250gb RAID0 OS drive

1x400gb Storage drive

1xLightscribe DVD-RW (SATA)

1xDVD-RW/RAM (SATA)

One thing that surprised me was how shiny the case was:

Temps were pretty damn good, 31C idle, all fans as low as they go

Drooling commenced! Nice rig you put together, very clean I like I like!

I would change that HSF to be on the right side of the sink and blow out the back through the rear 120. Looks like that fan might have a hard time getting its full flow rate being as close as it is to the vid card. Just a suggestion. Cheers!

Tried that, fourth (or first, depending on which way you count it) dimm blocks the fan install.

(There is actually a 120mm fan at the top too, which spins the same speed as the back one )

Very nice, pitty aboutthe heatsink fan.

Nice rig, don't like that case but each to their own

Why 4gb btw? Are they on 64bit?

Not bad I guess

That case (with the door open) reminds me of the really old chunky Dell + IBM server cases.

Grey plastic front with black metal sides

Shame about the CPU Fan placement aswell (even if it couldn't be avoided)

Urgh, it`s the only concern really, the whole build looks sweet tbh - and the shine

With the little clearance between the fan and the gfx pcb, I don`t feel the draw is going to be that good, I`d almost be tempted to put the fan on the top side and suck air through the fins upwards. Think u`d like about 2" of clearance to be effective. - then u`ll have it fighting with the rear fan for draw.. ugh.

I dunno, if u`r temps are good, then why change from what u got tbh

8800 FTW ! - very nice
