New rig (pics, specs, etc) 56kWarning

[AxL]

Finally got my new rig all setup tonight. I built it on monday but the powersupply that came with the case was crap and fried. Luckily it didn't take any of my new hardware with it. Anyway here are the specs and pics:

Aspire X-Super Alien Case
Athlon 64 3200+
1 GB PC3200 Corsair XMS RAM
Radeon 9800 PRO 128mb
200 GB Seagate HDD

I plan on making the case brighter by adding a couple of LED's and possibly later I will get some water cooling for overclocking. That probably won't be done for awhile.

That's it, I am jealous now.

No offense, but I think that case is really ugly. =/

 

[OMGLOLWTFPWN]

Why don't people get plain cases? Other than that it seems very fast, have fun playing games.

Luck whore.

Really? I have a Chieftec case with the same Sky Blue color, and i think it's a beauty.

What pin set did you get for your amd46bit? There is a new 940 pin set amd 64 for $1049.99 for the mobo and processor, that thing is teh pimpstor. Im guessing you got the 754 =p Get 2 12" cold cathcodes and toss those in there with a sound activateor and u will be set i woulda got a black based case with red "eye's" and "mouth" and throw red cathcodes in there, but blue works good too BTW dont get your cathodes from any computer site, go to a mod site, they will be ALOT cheaper, check this out :

Get a 12" with dual ready and get another 12" regular and you will be fine. Only thing is that site doesnt sell the sound activated ones anymore Ill see what i can find. LED's have a unique light, and they are great for smaller mods (xbox's, ps2's, other small things) but i think it is better for a computer to have calthcodes, i also recomend getting your computer off of your desk when you get them cause you will go blind XD



::EDIT::

cool stuff, i found some cheaper sound activated CCFL's!

My friend just got a 940 for a little around 400 bucks. He's also beta testing 64-bit edition...so his processor actually shows it's potential unlike you XP Pro users

I dont like the front of the case but the color is rather sexy

 

[Xecuter2.3]

400 for the processor and mobo? Even if its just for the processor...the chip alone at tigerdirect is 900 bux =/ The Mobo by itself is 190 bux


:EDIT::

its a bit cheaper for the processor at new egg, by a bit,i mean alot =/ but still no 400 bux, $775.00

 

[ShaftedTwice]

The case looks rather nice, IMO. It does have great ariflow. And TreeFrog, its usually for the airflow, and just to look nice =)

The 754 are A-64 2800+ to 3400+ and the new AMD Sempron. 940 are the FX-51, FX-53, and older opterons. 939 are the newer FX-53, 3500+ to 3800+ and above.

 

[jd-inflames]

Yes, he got an Athlon 65 3500+ for 400 bucks.

He got his from somewhere else, and he got it for about 400...I don't know where you guys got 900 bucks...

What kind of drive is that on top of the case. I can't tell. Other than the case color it looks amazing, what kinda sound you got on that bad boy?

 

[Krovvy]

Nice, now all you need is a real CLEAN mouse pad. Check out icemats.

 

[aphextwin]

lol notice how the color of the computer doesnt match with the rest?

A router or an external hd, I have no idea.

 

[CoLD]

loving that scull case fan! =]

 

[IceDevil9]

Nice rig AxL, I personally like the case, the mouse fits with it pretty well. It's a 64-bit processor/mobo right?

Well, you're 'Longhorn' ready!

Western Digital 120 GB Firewire/USB 2.0 external HDD

Right now I am using a cheap Sound Blaster live sound card I scavanged from my old rig. I had to RMA my sound card because it was defective. It is a Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy LS.

I don't know if I could stand having a blue case and a black keyboard, monitor, etc....I guess I just like for my stuff to match as much as it can. >,< My parents have that same lamp in their living room.
