Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 That system is sexy, but the case is godawful. In my hands, that machine would probably last me a good 6-7 years so I'd say it's a good bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Once saw an amd 1700 clocked to more than double speed operating at -172 degree's fh. Damned worthwhile usage I'd say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 I probably should've mentioned that I'm on a $1,500 budget, thus ruling out the water cooling system. And Rant, link me to this potential case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 How big of a power supply would you reccomend with my system? The other one came with a 420 watt supply, which I wasn't sure would be enough in the first place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Power Supply - http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-163-018&depa=1 Edit: This one is 580 Watts. MORE than enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dr. Tyler; Captain America 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Just saw that case only has three fans with it. How many would you reccomend I purchase? (obviously, with that case, I'd have to be a little geek and get red LED fans, but I'm more concerned with cooling than aesthetics at this point) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2004 Start with three and see what the temps are running. Make sure you get some Artic Silver on the processor and a good fan for the processor itself and you should be good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
