Where can I buy some Cold Cathodes like these so I can mount them in my cubby holes of my new desk? I don't want to buy them online. I rather go to a store that sells them like CompUSA and stuff. Is there any extra stuff that I need to make this project complete? For example:

????? List Of What I need: ?????
- Cold Cathodes
- Power
- Mounting Things
- ect ?????





...

I want to know too. I been looking at these pics all day. As for the cold cathodes, they look like the same kind I put in my case. I got them from Frys. But they plug into a normal power supply. They mount with the double sided tape included in the package. But what I want to know is if this guy is using some other type of cold cathodes, not made for computers but for home design, planters, whatever. Something we can find at a Home Depot possibly? Anybody know?
if thats the case it probably comes with all the stuff needed, tubes, power, switches etc. Very nice setup that I plan to duplicate on a smaller scale with my desk at home.

BYTECC BT-200 USB2.0 to IDE Cable With Power Adapter - Retail

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16812156101

I am going to buy one of these. They sell these everywhere. IDE to USB adapters. They come with power for the IDE drive which is just what we want. Ive seen these as low as 14 bucks too. This one is 25 bucks but out of the 2 on newegg, this one looks like it should do the job and Im sure about the power cable.

[TheDon]

ok i stole the look. miniturized it. my last post. in this thread.
oh, used a 12v 1000ma adapter you can buy at any electronics or hardware type place, and soldered it to an extra molex. and the cold cathode tubes that go in cases. Still looking for a blue set.

Is the LCD monitor expensive? and how's it for gaming?

[TWISM]

It runs around 8-900 if you can find some coupons for Dell. I love it, its nice and big and supports component, svideo, composite, etc...

It runs native at 1920 x 1200 so I have a 7800GTX to push it and I am very pleased. HL2 looks awesome along with FEAR, BF2, etc...

I wouldnt hesitate buying this LCD again.

[P1x44r]

Hehe TWISM, I'm glad you like it!

I have been working on a casemod of my own - I have never tried before - here are some progress pics - there is no actual computer yet and I also have done somethings to the front of it but haven't taken pics yet - I have a gatewatch and some cathode and fan controllers in the front now.

Holy sh*t

Here's my setup right now.. I havn't cleaned it up in ages

[cmar]

Here is my new rig (hardly new now, built this time last year, but recased in april) I've since added a an Arctic Cooling ATI cooler to the 9800, because I was so pleased with the AC Freezer 64.

Finally found some time to tidy up my room, and here's the results.

My main work rig, p4 3.6, 1gb cosair 533, pcx5900, audiotrak prodigy, raptor 36gb x2 and one 40gb maxtor 5400 crap. runs pretty fine, not blasing fast but is enough.





my secondary rig and my bench rig, p4 3.73ee/dual core 2.8ghz, 78gtx cosair 667 1gb and A64 3800+, 1gb TCCD hyperx with a couple of asus 6800Ultra on SLI



The black silverstone lc04 sitting on top was supposed to be my htpc but the svideo out on that Aopen i915GMm-HFS is horrible, I'm gonna swap the setup inside for an A64 3200+ soon. Currently, Pentium M 2.26, 1GB rams with everything onboard.





My File cum server. P4 3gig, 1 gb mushkin ram and a myriad of hard drives that makes up 1.4TB of hdd space.

Nice set up, can I ask how is vectorlinux? and what is/are it's role(s) on your network?

[Murmillo]

NSFW? You can't see anything, but should you be at work - slight caution should be used. 2 pictures..

UDHA, thanks

My VectorLinux server box is currently a dedicated server for a DoD:S server, but has been for UT99 and UT2004 and CS:S before. I want to make it be a webserver too, but am a little lazy and have yet to configure it....

Several times it has been my backup desktop, when my desktop is down and I need interweb for fixing it for example, and is has come in handy loading pictures (since XP x64 still won't recognize my camera as a flashdrive.....).

After I installed everything has run pretty smoothly despite my general linux nubishness (though I'm much better now....) and I have only reinstalled once. It was even quicker to configure than my Windows box, right after installing everything just kinda worked...

The best part though.... Got a USB switch and a monitor with 2 inputs, so I can use my kbd/mouse/monitor for both my desktop and server, and thanks to an AC heatsink, passive NB sink, and modded psu, the server box is essentially inaudible.

Supposedly the biggest advantage to Vector is that is a little bit faster than slackware, and comes with a decent package set. The server has been running 24/7 (with one reboot) since sometime in september when I moved in and got everything set up.

All components are passively cooled Now if I only can find that fast and quit harddrive I was looking for I designed this case first with SolidWorks, but then ran into troubles with with CNC drill at work as it doesn't support parts that are wider than 490mm So I had to go handy and I'm still missing front, back and top panels... as I got lazy

painkiller, in my experience Western Digital have whisper-quiet drives, compared to my seagates, the WD's are silent when seeking or thrashing about, the seagates sound like they are grinding gears

This is my ghetto rig. It gets the job done, so I don't complain. I do wish I had a chair, though. Anything not named in awesome red text is in my sig, except for my Xbox controller, which I forgot to list in awesome red text and don't want to list in my sig.
