I expect at least Grillkohle to reply to this, since he suggested it.

Now you may ph33r.


Inside picture not required, I just put mine up because I had it. And also to explain the number of stickers on the case front.

For the curious:
2x Intel Pentium III-S @1.4ghz
1024mb DDR266 RAM
Radeon 9500Pro
4 hard drives: 13gb, 8gb, 40gb, 30gb.

weow DOS fans,lotsa wires
id take a pic of mine but im too lazeh  ^_^

[Fewlio]

olo GG 6 harddrives ^_______________^

[Dubbilex]

I wanna take some nice pictars of my shiny new motherboard and processor ^_____________________________________^



But later.

[Bijiy]

-AMD Barton 2500 (running at 166mhz FSB, I'm gonna take it to 200mhz once I get a better cpu fan/heatsink)
-512mb pc3200 (running in dual channel)
-Ti-4200 128mb
-80gig wd

Basic gaming rig.

[Grillkohle]

This might be a little oversized, but I think we can take it.
For the curious: :p

AMD Athlon XP 2800+ 333FSB (Barton Core)
1 GB DDR 333 RAM
ATi RadeOn 9700Pro 128 MB
80 GB HDD
MSI K7N2-D Motherboard

One picture has the processor fan on it that I ordered with it. Double-checked compatibility with the Motherboard, said it's all fine, pictures looked ok (small pictures...), so I open it... no clamps but screws. Ugh. So I just put the AMD HSF on it, and it works like a charm (even in Florida).
I also had to remove the motherboard chipset fan (I think they call it northbridge) because it was broken, and I have yet to find a replacement because its not a normal standard fan but some MSI crap. Oh well, it works without it too.

When I noticed that the picture of Grillkohle's PC didn't quite fit on my screen, I got meself a powerful projector and hooked it up to mah compeh. Unfortunately, when I projected the picture onto the surface of the moon it STILL wouldn't fit, so I decided to shrink it instead.

I have the same exact case as Grillkohle. (good case!) Cept for a few things, and cleainer wiring (My wiring is so preddy!) But yeah a few mor ethings then grillkohles, maybe ill post a pic sometime

[Grillkohle]

newegg.com eh ? ^_^

[Dubbilex]

Teehee - 800 mhz FSB and 8x AGP make me a happy fella  B)

[CForrester]

This is just a generic case that I doodled the TSA logo on with crayons. It's old and stained and blech, but I rarely see it anyway. (It's on a shelf under the desk)

Specs:
Pentium 4 1.8 GHz @ 400 MHz FSB
ECS M925LR motherboard - mATX. 1 AGP4x (Runs at 2x voltage, my Radeon 9600 Pro doesn't work on it arg die), 2 PCI, 1 CNR, onboard audio, video and LAN. (I only use the onboard audio, the onboard LAN crapped out on me.) VIA VT8751 Northbridge, VT8233 Southbridge.
1024 MB generic DDR RAM @ 333 MHz
Sapphire Radeon 9000 128 MB
Western Digital Caviar 40 GB (WD400BB)
LG GCC-4120B (CD-RW/DVD-ROM combo. 12x8x32 CD-RW, 8x DVD-ROM)
Some generic 52x CD-ROM

ECS M925LR motherboard

Hafaf, I had an ECS K7S5A, upgraded to an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe, and I noticed a large performance boost from just teh board, and it had better onboard sound and a  Universal AGP slot(or something like that). I love my asus board now, I'm never buying another ECS board again!

Yeah, ECS stinks. I'm planning on getting an Asus mobo. The one I have my eye on is 8x AGP.

I'm planning on getting an Asus mobo. The one I have my eye on is 8x AGP.

It'd be tough to find one these days that isn't 8x AGP, but that's beside the point I suppose.

Here is what I take to be the Asus board you want. It's the one everyone wants.
But as an experienced system builder, I have something to point out to you.

This one is nearly identical and costs $23 less. And if you don't want SATA, you can get one of these for only $57. That's $53 less than the Asus. EpoX and Shuttle are just as reliable as Asus.

The thing with Asus is that a few years ago they became an enthusiast favorite, and they noticed, went "w00t!" and jacked the retail prices up by about $30 to $50.

So buy the Shuttle. And spend your extra $53 on some more ram, or a bigger hard drive.

Actually, I'm in the market for a Socket 478 board. I'm a Pentium boy. This is what I'm gonna get. (I can't buy from NewEgg, I'm Canadian. :/)

*EDIT* I need something that supports ~3.0 GHz at 533 or 800 MHz FSB. That's my next upgrade.

Should I get that instead?

[DruBo]

I'd recommend this instead.  The Asus isn't bad, though. I thought you were just blindly spending $110 on a name, rather than a product, and I wanted to prevent that.

The PT800 does kick much ass though. And my link above will get you a $59 PT800 board.

And spend your extra bucks on a new case! Sheesh kebab that thing's ugly!

[Grillkohle]

Sheesh kebab that thing's ugly!

Oh so true. Nice, cheap cases here. Some are dead ugly, but there are some real nice ones (the shimmery black one <3 ).

*edit* Aw, too bad. You live in Canada...

LEDs? You completely lost any respect I might have had for you.




Completely.
