I haven't posted much since i subscribed, I had to put off my build for a couple of months.
But finally as we speak I'm installing xp 64 on my new machine
Build was easy except for the intel cpu fan(it really does suck) and will be replacing it soon.
I put it in an old server case for now and will getting a worthy case soon so it looks like crap for now.
This is what I have:
Asus Maximus II mobo
intel E 8500
bfg 9800 gtx
seagate 160gb sata
crucial 4gb ddr2 pc2-8500 1066Mhz
1kva power supply
XP Pro 64 bit
The rest i scavenged from my old system(optical drives etc..)
My old system was old...... real old. it was an H.P. From just when procs broke the 2gb barrier with 512 ram and a 6600 gt o.c.
I'm not trying to set records but is this setup at least decent for overclocking. it's mainly going to be used for a DAW workstation (audio recording).
minus the O.S. I paid $575.00 for everything.....unopened.
