Behold My new System

[Aztlan]

Hi there, well this is my new system
it consist of the following products

Asus P4P800 motherboard
Pentium 4 2.4C OC @ 3.2 ghz
Sapphire 9800 pro
Creative Audigy 2 Sound Card
512 MB kingston HyperX memory
Western Digital 74 gb Raptor Drive
Lite ON dvd reader/cdrw combo Drive
Antec 480 Watt True Power Supply

For cooling i have a Swiftech Heatsink with a vantec Tornado (Which has a 7 Volt mod, which makes it extremely quiet)
for grease i use Artic Silver 5

my old system was an amd 1.2ghz tbird cpu, 36gb raptor Drive (now in Sister machine) same memory, asus A7N8X deluxe board

i was without a pc for 3 weeks because the freaking rma of the video card took 2 weeks plus the mother board died, what a luck lol
but all is good now
here are some pictures of my new system
i know that prescott will be release soon but i needed the system badly because i am attending university and there is a lot of work, besides it cost me 600 USD with the Rma credit and negotiating with SIs :evil:

anyway Pictures

Hurray Aztlan is back and with a great comp!!

I think you should have instead gone for two 36gb raptors and ran them in a RAID 0 over a 72gb raptor :D

Unless you don't want to deal with failures I would understand that, but man RAID 0 two raptors would be so sweet. :D

Also have gone with 2 256mb sticks so you could run dual channel and the overall comp peformance would go up also:D
Nice job with the wiring, let me know when your trueblue blows up jk lol.

[Aztlan]

I am back? :P

i went with the 74 gb raptor because i wanted to be in the safe side
also this thing is freakingly fast so i am very happy with it :D


about the memory i already had this 512 mb hyperx memory, so i didnt buy new memory, and besides memory is expensive right now,

about the power supply, that thing has last me 1 year and hopefully continues to work for the foreseable future

thanks for the comments by the way

that looks exactly like my abs case

well you've got a powerful machine, grrrrrrr :angry: lol, I only have 3.0 ghz, but I still got that gig of ram, my next graphic card is a ATI then I will own all of you lol :lol:

I really need to take some pics of my pc

[bl0ss0m]

Aztlan

I finally got my mobo back and some new ram.

Does 250fsb sound good on a AMD rig? muhahhahahhaha

[Aztlan]

hahaha,
but whats your overall OC? :P

anyway, i decided to return the motherboard in my system to my sister's machine, since the motherboard i bought for her is having issues up to the whazzoo

so after reading this review in firingsquad and others around the web based on this motherboard, i just ordered one from the egg
and by looking at the benchmarks, it is faster than my current one, which has a 865pe chipset

also i will soon get another stick of ram so total will be 1 gig
muhhaahaha :evil:

I'm currenty running it at 250x9 which is 2250mhz, the 9.5 multi is not so stable (it will just sit at the windows boot screen). I'm requesting for some more voltage options so I can fine tune it more, I was up at 2400mhz yesterday but I didn't wanna have too much voltage. (wonders if this thing can do 2500mhz).
