New Computer for B-Day

olivert00 · 11-19-2005, 04:03 PM

Birthday Bragging Rights:
Desktop/Sony Vaio 110G series Pentium D CPU 3.00, 2.00g RAM/Windows XP Media Center Edition...2x19" Sony LCD Monitors XBRITE Screens

Is one allowed to post pics of such bragging rights?

This and my Canon 20D, what else could a girl want...(more tanks, more corals and more fish of course)
Ok I'm finished

Well ok, I put a 3.2 P4 (640) with a Thermaltake Blue Orb II on a AOpen i945Pa-PLF, with a little helping of OCZ Gold Series 1GB (2 x 512MB) DDR2 667 (PC2 5400), topped with a ATI 850xt PCIe card, a new Seagte SATA II 160gb drive and my old 160gb SATA WD drive. Used the exisisting CoolerGiant power supply and optical drives.

Warning there is a bad glare in the 2nd pic..

olivert00 · 11-19-2005, 06:36 PM

Ken...HOLY COW! Nice, I am emailing your pics to my brother. He will die when he sees this.
Thank you

Kensn · 11-19-2005, 06:42 PM

Ya... why don't ya let me "borrow" one of those nice monitors to see how I like LCD???

How do you like that blue orb Ken?
I'm needing to upgrade the cooler on my Intel 630, it is running just barely overclocked at 3157. I'm thinking about getting a Zalman cooler on my setup.
BTW I have an Intel 630, on an Asus P5LD2 premium mobo, 1 gig ddr2 5400, Nvidia 6600GT, 2x200gig Maxtor SATA drives in Raid0. I have a SOYO Dymond 17" LCD which I'm not thouroughly impressed with, my roomates LCD is better quality when it comes to games and movies, but for general useage it is a good deal.
I'll throw a picture of my tacky led laced case sometime. It's not my style, but came free with the mobo/cpu and memory.

Kensn · 11-19-2005, 07:15 PM

The Blue Orb is doing a great job, and the tests I saw showed the Blue Orb was a little better then the Zallman, I had looked at the zallman as a choice. The Orb is quiet, big , heavy and cool looking. I have no complaints or regrets.

Yes I am sticking with my 21" crt until the price of a low response rate 20" lcd comes around, should not be too long now...

Woodstock · 11-19-2005, 07:38 PM

Ken, that thing walks the dog! Nice rig~~

Kensn · 11-19-2005, 07:56 PM

Oh I think that Sony w/2 gig and a D processor probably edges me out a little....

Rougiem · 11-19-2005, 08:23 PM

Nice set up ken! Cool new toy Debbie....I just a new video card today....

Cheers!
