Your a good inspiration for us!! ...Now I'm going to go lay on the couch before I get too motivated...Got it. Took lots of pictures. Hand tapped the 6-32 thru-holes. CPUs put in. Last heatsink modified. All ready to take home.
Aaannnd....that will be it until tomorrow night.
This is the last day of my work's 'Biggest Loser' contest.
Saturday = 5 hours on the treadmill
Sunday = 4 hours on the treadmill
Today: I've already got in an hour before work, and I'm going to try and get 3 more tonight.
Tomorrow: One more hour before work.
I'm down about 30 pounds. Another pound our two and I should be just about guaranteed to win. The guy in first place hasn't lost more than 5 pounds in any one week, and 31 pounds would put me ahead of him if he loses 5 pounds this week.
So, no time to do anything but treadmill today.
Ugh I just drooled all over myself
Now why did you tap the mounts? It looks like you have a larger screw your using? Or is that the tap itself. I don't remember the size of the screws that fit. I just threaded some bolts with cut off heads in. Thru away the springs and crap on the 212's and then used the center of the "Musky" bracket as the hold down. You have something creative you're doing?
Doing the hack stuff is by far my favorite part of the build....
Oh thats right that will work nice...I had a hard time keeping my screws all the same height. Plus you don't need to smooth out the cut off threads. I was concerned with a possible RMA. wasn't sure tapping the threads would create a warranty issue.The threads are 6-32, the standard 'English' thread used in computers (hard drives, motherboard stand-offs, etc...). I liked Musky's idea of being able to take the 2" screw and put it is from the back side of the board. So, since work at a machine shop, I grabbed a 6-32 tap and finished out the thread.
Btw, this board is MASSIVE!!! It can address a terabyte of RAM!

You got everything you need to boot it up tonight? I can pepper you with annoying questions all night...lol Your going with 12.04 LTS? When I wipe mine, I am just going to copy everything you do to get a decent OC. (If you don't mind) I'm still running 10 something.
Well, won the contest, and dropped 12 pounds this week alone. 34 for the contest, and a total of 52 pounds down since I started losing weight.
Anyway, here are the pics.

I'll have more pictures later. I'm pretty tired tonight, so I'll probably finish it up tomorrow.
What ever happened to that build White hawk?
Looking at your stats it doesn't look like you are running the 4P.
How long are you going to burn it in before OCing? What kind of memory did you use ...In case I have a module laying around? Lots of 2GB's laying around if thats what you went with.
I'll dig out a 2GB module. Do you have enough room, if I bring my rig over. I can bring an LCD if needed. You'll have to let me know how the appliance is. I like having a little more control then that may offer. Tho I'll install it on a USB to try out...If it works OK. I may use it.I figure I'll give it a week. I'm taking next Sunday off, so I'll have time to work on it then. I'll confirm with my wife, but you are welcome to come by.
I've got a mix of 2GB Corsair Dominators (blue and red) and some OCZ gold. I've got 6 of each style of Dominators, and 3 of the OCZ. The OCZ are shorter, so I was planning to have them in the slots under the fans. Everything is 1600 or better speed DDR3.
