I'm only on page 3 and its legend. I'm not a modding man myself, but this is something else!!!

Wow. What a waste of time and money.

Don't think it's finished yet, but it looks ugly (post #147). All that for something that'll be sitting under a desk.. never understood the reasoning.

WizZard · 13-12-2005 10:07am

He's got a better log on Bit-Tech. I've been watching him from the start. It's amazing!

masteroftherealm · 13-12-2005 12:26pm

yeah Ive been following him on BitTech too Hell of a rig hes got going. Major skillz.

commited · 13-12-2005 3:17pm

That guy must have alot of free time on his hands - I like some of his ideas, but the end result just looks crazy cluttered!

po0k · 13-12-2005 3:47pm

Great technical modding, especially with the waterloops. Looks fúcking cack though.
Ex. http://franklin.noph33r.com/images/overzicht5.jpg
It's all gravy down the back until you reach the PSUs. Wtf.

My biggest gripe with it is that the plexi should be flush, not mounted on wobbly stand-offs. (look at the hdd cages).

I really hope this is mid-way as there seems to be alot of work left.

It's like a poor man's Orac3, not much thought given to [the overall aesthetic design]

gline · 13-12-2005 5:51pm

yeh hes got skills alrite.. but it doesnt look the best at the end, very neat job though.. handy when you got all the tools and a kinda workshop to do it in though

Cuddlesworth · 13-12-2005 7:15pm

There is no way he got better temps with that wc kit then had he gone with some good aircooling.

Dunno... doubt it. He wants it quite i'd say. Depends whats he gonna do in the line of overclocking.

Evd-Burner · 13-12-2005 7:36pm

I think its a pretty kick ass job and when its totally finished i bet it will be class.....

True about the tools and workshop, anybody can learn how once ya have the equipment....

Some how i doubt hes overclocking....Id say he has enough money to get any hardware he wants....

Well he only uses a coping saw, sandpaper, files and a few humble things. But the space to have his working area is necessary too i suppose.
Even so, no matter what harware i ever got I'd always try and overclock it even if i got the best money can buy

masteroftherealm · 13-12-2005 7:46pm

Yeah for example those 6800;s could run as ultra's easily. But hes gonna hit probs with pressure as those pumps have a lot of tubing to push thru

yes, and hes got one particular tight corner to navigate (the one where he made the acrilyc 'anti kink' thing.... which, by the way, was very well made. He has flow meters so we'll see what his conclusions will be at the end.

masteroftherealm · 13-12-2005 7:51pm

Yeah I think the Iwakis will be introduced.

unklerosco · 13-12-2005 9:09pm

This is the most amazing n best bit of modding i have ever seen, although Orac3

gives him a damn good run for his money... These guys sweat skill

Endurance Man · 13-12-2005 9:16pm

Ye, read the worklog on that Orac as well, very well made. I love that stuff they have used to sleeve all the wires, can you get that in Ireland? Searched many hardware shops and cant find it.

Tis good. But I like the dutch guys idea of hiding all the wires on [Hard]forum. Sleeve is good too.

Ya but most of our mums lived through the acid days of the 60s. That flashy fan can bring back good memories for our beloved parents... or rather flashbacks. HAha

Got a gf2mx when they first came out and cabletied on a load of HSF's I had lieing about the place - had the highest core speed for ages lol
I was cool in those days

Tbh now I only use a laptop (3400+ with 1mb cache -performance equiv to an FX-51, 1gb ram, 128mb 9700, 80gb hdd &15.4" screen) - my next desktop plan is to build an uber tiny and silent PC, hopefully making my own bespoke case

Will yours have hamsters for the PSU in wheels. Very silent, but quite smelly though.

commited · 14-12-2005 9:58pm

hamsters for the PSU - I'll look into that. I was going to use magic fairy dust though.

Of course, but I dont have the time or money to be playing about with PCs - I need something that works and I can carry around with me

I should 3d mark my laptop and see what it gets. It gets 92fps in LFS and runs quake 4 well, so it's not bad for the grand I paid for it...
