...everyone, my hat is off to you, with a head nod thrown in for respect . I'm referring to the people whom have a exceptionally neat inside case (all cables in their place). I've tried and tried to accomplish this feat but have yet to succeed. Very good job!

Ive got some quality folding power foing on with 2x X1900's in CF, Im running a gpu client on each Gpu and on top of that a cpu client. The Gpu clients share one Cpu core for polling and initial processing and the other Cpu core gets fully utilized for a Cpu client:

A run from last night:




This machine is capable of outputing approx 1200 folding points in approx 30 hours on the gpu clients alone (330 points per Gpu unit), it can also complete 600 point WU's (P2414) in 26 hours. So basically in just 1.25 days if its left to its own devices it can potentially output approx 1800 folding points when running 2xGpu clients and 1xCpu client simultaneously.

Normally the Gpu client steps take 8 minutes a step when running a single gpu client and one cpu client, but when increasing this to two gpu clients it increases a bit and further increases when you throw the Cpu client into the mix as well.

Not to get off the point, but that background showing on your monitor is very kewl. Where'd you get it if you don't mind me asking? Awesome machine you got there as well.

WTF is it that you do so that I could get into the same field.

Finally got rid of that piece of **** Thermaltake water kit!

Dunno, but could you imagine if he water cooled that baby...

[caveman-jim]

I know!!! I'm getting a definate bug for moving away from air cooling. Your setup is inspiring; how quiet is it? Do you get a blast of heat reflected from the wall?

This Rad does a great job of removing heat. I've got two yate loons on it, so it's almost silent. The only problem I have now is the loud ass fortron PSU.

I've got my E6600 running at 3.5 @ 1.4vcore and it never goes above 44C load. Not bad for silent running IMO. Well it would be silent if not for the stupid PSU. Not sure what I want to do about that yet.

I have to admit though... Water cooling is a pain in the ass, because you always end up trying to make it better...

Oh, the silly mistakes of newbies. I especially love the copied link from your temporary internet folder.

Try a image hosting site such as www.imageshack.us or www.photobucket.com for hosting images.

No one but you would be able to see those pictures.

He needs a few more posts as well, before he is able to link pics.

[Greasy]

post up the links as text, and one of us will post them for you.

after review of course.

You're as cable aesthetically challenged as I am.

Buy yourself an assorted bag of zip ties, some tape.. Sit down and take your time.

For some more extreme jobs get the wire strippers, soldering iron, and electrical tape.

[adbusmc198]

WOW!! I was so excited to finish my 1st build that I never even noticed how sloppy it looked...hhmmm zip ties sound like a great idea!

Don't sweat it man, that' a great job for a first build.

Nothing wrong with the job you did there, don't let the case snobs make you work harder than you want to.

So true... windows on cases are evil..

[The Pig]

If you can, try and tie the wires behind the peripherals. I find it looks best that way, though each case is different. Modular power supplies help A LOT with cable management.

heh, its more tidy in there then my first build, and is still more tidy then how my rig looks now

Yanno, Ive been lookin around for a new computer desk, one with a bit more room on it, since we've moved into a house. Seems like 90 percent of the computer desks you find these days are corner desks. I dont want a corner desk.

Then, a lot of desks I see around, have some tiny little keyboard tray. I need to have my keyboard and mouse at the same level and I NEED mousing room to be able to play my games. A little 6x6 square on a tiny keyboard tray aint gonna cut it.

..... ordinary

poor camera phone!
hey, any advice to solve that poor cabling? thx

.... night mode

[-n7-]

My current setup.

Left = Dell 3007WFP
Center = Samsung 204T
Both those run off my main PC. (far left bottom)

Right = Samsung 204B
Left front = Optoma EZPro 739 projector
204B & projector run off my HTPC (left bottom)

Far right = HP dv1440ca notebook







I know the wires down below are a huge mess...i don't really look down there too much though, so it doesn't bother me

[IllestOne]

Doesn't that projector kinda blind you when you are on your comp!? I'd pic somewhere diff to mount it, IMHO...

[-n7-]

I don't use the main PC when using the projector.

It displays on the only free wall i have, which is opposite the PC desk.

I just throw a comfy chair in front of the PC for when i fire up the projector to watch a movie or TV shows.

Antec Sonata with ASRock 939DualSATA2/AM2 CPU...

Alright, here's the latest version of the caverig 'blackmambo' I cleaned out all the dust bunnies and added a few components (pcie raid card, new fan controller, moved hd, added zip drive, added 2 hd's)

PSU - BFG 650W PSU
External Bay 1 - Sunbeam 20-in-1 combo fan controller (thanks t_ski!)
External Bay 2 - 5 1/4 to 3 1/2 drive bay adaptor (double railed!) holding my system drive (320gb 7200.9 seagate on onboard sata2 port)
External Bay 3 - nec dvd-rw, zip drive, floppy drive.
Mobo - ASrock 939-DualSATA-II with AM2CPU expansion board. AM2 X2 4000+ @ stock with stock heatsink and different fan on it, running at 3000rpm.
Case - Antec Sonata, stock rear fan, front/drive bay fan is a Delta 120mm B.A.F. that at full voltage is 7000rpm/160+ CFM/75db so I'm running it at 2K rpm... audible but not intrusive in my opinion.
PCIe x16 slot - currently inhabited by an Adaptec 1430SA raid card, with 2 7200.10 Seagate 250Gb drives. Benchies later.
PCIe x1 slot I am planning on modding the PCIe 1x slot to be open ended to free up the x16 slot for an x1900.
AGP slot - X800XT AIW, stock.
PCI slot 1 - left free for air flow, with an air gap backplane.
PCI slot 2 - hauppauge winpvr 500 card.
PCI slot 3 - creative x-fi.
Internal Drive Bay 1 - Seagate 7200.10 250Gb SATA-2, connected to Adaptec RAID
Internal Drive Bay 2 - Seagate 7200.10 250Gb SATA-2, connected to Adaptec RAID
Internal Drive Bay 3 - empty
Internal Drive Bay 4 - empty

Cabling is not neurotic, but airflow is unobstructed. and hey, caves are messy!
Temps at idle are 27C [Core 0], 33C [core 1], load 39/44. Ambient mobo temp is 33C. GPU idles at 45, with ambient 45. All as reported by Everest ultimate. Fan controller thermal diodes are on NB heatsink and CPU heatsink; NB shows 30C while everest shows 33, CPU shows 37C while everest reports 39/42.

As you can see in the pics, the B.A.F. blows directly across the cpu expansion board - something that wouldn't happen for a 939 cpu. I think a better HSF would really help with cooling, so I could try a few OC's, but space is limited - width and height. Suggestions welcomed!

I would have bought a camera rather than take to time to produce that pic in paint. Nice job though. Especially if you really did use paint.

i agree, but as long as he had fun making it then its all good. Add's a little humor to this thread also. Honestly though for using paint that is a real quality drawing

EDIT: i have that same 1337 printer/scanner
