Just about finish my new rig that I've been working on over the year. Only thing left to buy is a SSD and a new hard drive. Current specs are in the signature.

Here's my Heaven Benchmark result.

Do the side panels humm in any way?, I currently have the Fractal R4 with 5 hard drives and the side panels hum which is really F**king annoying, and have to have the side panel off.

Nope, the P280's have a 1mm thick sound/anti-vibration dampener sticker inside on all the side panels. The only noise I hear are my fan's even when I'm transferring 3TB's worth of data over to my other raid there is no noise from the hard drives at all.

Intel QX6700 @ 3.6
EVGA 680i A1
8GB DDR2
GTX 560 2GB (planning to get a 660 Ti soon)
WD Velociraptors 150GB RAID 1 (planning to get SSDs)
 
I picked up an H60 on the cheap today, so I could use my stock cooler on a 1156 build for my HTPC.

The top 4 photos show a 650Ti for PhysX. I've since taken it out.
 
Would've been more impressive if those were the latest Intel 9"" series SSD's, impressive stuff nonetheless, guess some people just need that extra speed for encoding hardcore pronz.:D
 
At current Newegg prices... that is $3k in that array alone. That is straight retarded.

/jealous

Wish I could wipe my ass on the daily with $100 bills..
 
Just did a rough estimate on his build with newegg prices, not including Monitor, keyboard, mouse, or headphones..


Right around $7.4k with shipping.....:(
 
With monitor and guessing on other prices.. it is around a $9k build.

Cheap basterd did not even opt for the custom water loop.. ;)
 
Here's an early benchmark I did after creating the array. Could use more tweaking, but I'm more than happy with it.

Dude, I hate you!!!!!!!! Just kidding. That is ludicrous speed! Does your display go to plaid?

Jesus, planning on helping the DoE or FERMI crunch some numbers or something?
Nice rig, I'm hoping to get a single 512 SSD next spring.

Just out of curiosity, are you using the on-board RAID functions of your motherboard or a separate card? I'm thinking about doing RAID next year for the first time and was wondering if the on-board controllers of today's consumer mobo's are up to it.

The ASRock Extreme11 has the LSI SAS 2308 PCIe hardware RAID controller built into it. That's what I'm using. It's not exactly a cheap controller and one of the reasons the board costs $600.
 
I just C@me a little.....
Super Sick build, glad you went with AsRock. There features just out weight everybody else these days in my opinion!

Definitely a nice board, went with the Fatal1ty Champion instead in my new box since I didn't need the SAS controller.


Might take nicer photos next weekend but this is it for now.

Shouldn't that read speed for seq write be at least 3000mbps?

Seems a bit on the slow side considering what OCZ says 1 of these drives is capable of 560 read and 510 write for the 512gb G model. Have you got the cheaper M version?

He is either loaded or he is a reviewer.

In the UK at current prices you are talking around the £400 mark for just one of these drives.

Nope, just the regular 512GB Vertex 4s. Some people have gotten higher with by flashing the firmware to a different version and then setting the drives as a Windows RAID array. Perhaps I'll try that later. I'll just have to make due with the slowness for now. ;)
 
Do you have such a system, just for fun? What do you do with such powerful machine?
