I've have had a problem with the delivery look's like the stacker is out of stock and so is the zalman :eh?:.

Going to get on the phone with them. im going for a white neon theme, i just looking for the side panel for the coolmaster.

and Delivery is now for monday :shrug:, beacuse of this set back, let me see what i can get out of them (maybe a neon or two) :)



---------------------------------EDIT-----------------------------------------

All is well Delivery is for tommorow can't wait to do this log

[Daewood]

ditch the neons and go for white leds... pure white light and so much less heat compared to the neons...

Other than that I look forward to what you are going to do!

Components in

[Blackmage]

Ok so far, the coolmaster case setting up was a bunch of problems, the hardest job was fitting a hard drive in to the case :o.

Also i installed XP 64, found it diffcult to work with due to the lack of drivers that i needed(modem) and with out that i would have no internet access.


So i moved on, i decied that i should install xp32bit as i said before so, off i went, modem,sound, chipset drivers all installed fine updated xp a bit (dreading the SP2 download).

So after all this i updated the bios work out all good. so i guessed it was some time for some overclocking, this did not go as plan :( .

bios is crap, i mean the standard why is manual overclocking i can't even get it too boot at 270*15 1.5V, but i think it's somthing to do with the ram, i'll keep trying the diffrent settings at this bios as im new to this bios. Post some results later. :D

[Blackmage]

look at this picture this is the best i have got so far :( running a 3:2 ratio, i have DDR2 so i don't want be running at 166*2 :(

or am i wrong 166*4 = 664? but im sure my FSB can go all the way up to 333 before to meet the 1:1 ratio?
