Thanks guys... Hopefully I can get this little beast up and running soon... two 1700+s should OC quite well..... It'll be a nice boost for me and the [H]orde!

Thanks again LPerry!!


Keep on Folding!!

j/k oc the [H]ell out of it OSUguy.
 
Congrats!

I have the exact same machine, with the cpu's modd'd to 2.0 ghz (courtesy of our very own Relic [MIA]). My machine with 512k Ram pumps out (a potential of) 2400 ppw with the good wus. Not bad. Not bad at all. :) It will do that 2400 ppw when I get those good wu's, not those sucky, lame-ass ones.

Ciao for now .......

edit: revised wording to say (a potential of) and added last sentence.
 
Ohhhhhh sooo pretty.... Congrats OSUguy98!

 
GG... He's sending ECC RAM with it...... but only 256MB, so I'm going to pick up more... but does it have to be ECC? Can you get away with using regular DIMMs?

everyone else.... I need to pick up a PSU, some more RAM, a cheap optical drive and maybe a case.... maybe a couple HSFs (quieter, better,etc).... any recommendations?




Keep on Folding!!

 
I saw that... I think I'll need about 15 of these duallys just to match you! :D

Yes. The ram has to be ECC. Its a bit more expensive unfortunitly.

As far as reccomendations....

PSU = http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-103-485&depa=0

Its cheap, and an increadbly solid PSU. Its not going to win any awards for being a powerhouse, but thats not its purpose. It was designed to be increadably stable on a loww profile system. Perfect for a folding rig.


RAM = http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820146535

Cheap, and its DDR400 which leaves some OC headroom. Crucual is a good brand.


Case = this is a personal preferance thing, but if you want an opionion I was impressed by the two linkwork cases I picked up. For the price, they seem like good cases. They are flimsy as hell, but there not terrable looking, and have decent airflow, which again is good for OCing.


Optical = probably not needed other that for OS install, so something cheap. perhaps you should just put word in at the DC swap thread.

HSF = based on what your looking to spend....

The new zalmans are very quite, and have awesome performance. I suggest takign some measurements first tho, and make sure the CPU sockets are far enough apart...these are big. 80mm is the first one, then two are 120mm and two are 82mm fans.
