[Maxvla]

ask me tomorrow and it will always be different :)

[Stedeman]

Well with a unlimited budget I would have to say an IBM Blue Gene/L (should be out in 2005) with a direct neronet interface (should be out in 2XXX) for my brain, 10 T1 lines to fill up a little of my bandwidth, a nice lazy boy recliner a nurse 24/7, and a limitless supply of IV food to keep me hooked up 24/7

Audigy 2
Sony DRU510
2x250gig Maxtor Diamond Max Plus9 8mb cache
2x80gig SATA Maxtor Diamond Max Plus9 8mb cache

[InThrees]

You know, I'm thinking of what I'd like to write here, and I find that actual PC components are not at the top of the list.

Things like "Evaporative cooling tower with a TEC" or "Phase change setup" are at the top of my list.

I don't really care about having $2000 worth of hardware, I care about having fun with the o/c and going "WHOOOT!" when I pull coup and get a kickass o/c out of a cheap chip. ;)

[UberBlue]

XP 9000+ w/512 Mb L2
500Gb DDR 64,000 RAM Drive

[Kino]

2500+ barton
8RDA3+
a crapload of l-shaped 9500 nps
a couple of 9800s 256mb in case no 9500s softmod
2 gigs DDR400 RAM
a plain cheesy but strong aluminum case
8 250 GB hard drives in a RAID array (hey u kno i got 2 terabytes storage space :D)
2 or 3 of These (http://www.bwspeakers.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/products.models/label/Model%20Nautilus) :attn:
a 30" LCD monitor with a 90hz refresh rate (MY LCD PWNZ0RZ J00R CR7)
and umm.... lots of mod supplies, fans, cathodes, power tools, an SLK-900U, rheobuses, and a home-made watercooling setup
oh also lots of SK-6s to make heatsinks for my mosfets, nb, sb, lan chip, audio chip, and so

and a fridge under my desk full of orange soda and microwave pizza (and a microwave on my desk too)

as you can see, i get satisfaction on doing things myself, i mean, even if oyu got loads of cash why to buy a 3200+ when you can buy a 2500+ and OC it farther?

btw UberBlue, you avatar scares me, i did that when i was a child, only difference was that i remember it in colors and i used a fork

Heh.. heck with DUAL opterons.. get an 8 way system!!

8x opterons (fastest ones ofcourse)
(i think max is 64gb or ram.. not sure.. whatever max is..)
Radeon 9800pro
12x 300+gb hdd's
audigy 2
Zenith P60W26 <-- 60" plasma screen!! only $10499 BTW :D

EDIT: ah.. now that I think about it.. lets get 4 plasma screens and cover the wall... and maybe the roof.... and kitchen.. ah! lets do the whole house!! Giant UT2k3 match!! Pay someone to design it so you can see the thing around you if you turn around and make it like VR!! WHOO!!:D That would be too much fun :p

[Beast Of Blight]

Hey, you said dream..and I sure as hell am dreaming :drool:

Is that 1ghz BASE fsb, or dual pumped?? :D Hows about 8 8ghz proc's with 8ghz FSB and 64GB of ram? all running at 8ghz ofcourse ;)

[modenaf1]

one of those dell dimension XPS's either that or an 8300 or an alienware.

[sandman001]

Cray X1

[Renigade]

Or how about a computer with infinity MHz with infinity FSB with infinity gigs of RAM and infinity terabytes of HD space and a Radeon infinity? This of course would have to be setup with Infinity.Infinity (much more than 6.2!) speakers and a mouse with infinity buttons and a keyboard with infinity keys. All on an infinity inch monitor that is 1/Infinity inch wide (much thinner than LCD! :D )

Bring it guys :D :D :D

[bafbrian]

Two words:

Red Storm :drool: ( Get me a towel )

[dippy_skoodlez]

red storm?

[bafbrian]

Red Storm is the super computer being created by Cray that has over 10,000 Opetrons in it. It has over 40 teraFLOPS.

This is what I am talking about:

[dippy_skoodlez]

HOLY (^%&^%$^$%#^%$& %^$!! Thats a LOT of opterons..... I doubt AMD goin out of business soon ;)

[nealric]

Ok, this is more an entire system of computers rather than one...

The entire thing would be inside a computer desk, but have 4 pullout modules with three machines insde.

#1 Gamin rig
Dual custom phase change systems
3.2ghz p4 @ over 4ghz
over 1ghz fsb
1024 corsair pc 4000
radeon 246 mb 9800 (phase changed, ram watercooled)
4 sata raptors on raid 0
4 250gig drives on raid 1

#2. Folding/linux
Dual Opteron 800class
On dual phase change
2 tb scsi raid storage
all the goodies...

#3 hardcore grafix on windows
Again, dual opterons on phase change
Fire gl x1 246meg again on phase change with wced ram
4gigs ram

#4 Silent multi media pc
250gig hdd
passive water cooling
radeon 9800 AIW

All of this would be controlled by a kvm switch 21in lcds (as secondary) built into the desk and a flip up 60in plasma display as the primary

total cost 50k+

:D

[CrashOveride]

Oi, not again.

Personal computer lvl here, but still high price.

OCed P4 (sorted for highest OC)
Prommy or other phase change (probablyt a custome so i can cool everything)
Abit IC-7 (Sorted for highest OC)
1G Sorted for highest OC memory (probably Corsair XMS or Mushink (sp?)
Gefore Fx 5900 256mb
2 PCI Video cards for tripple monitors
3 high res Flat CTR's, 1 plasma tv for games
2 arrays of 4 SATA Rators in 0,1 (you can do that with current SATA RAID controllers right?)
1 4 drive array of WD 250Gb in 0,1

Or same thing with Sorted AMD chips for best OC/preformance
Abit NF7-S rev. (again sorted)

[Captain Slug]

mATX Nforce 2 IGP motherboard
512mb PC3200 DDR in DUal Channel
