So I really needed a 24/7 rig rather than benching the snot outa everything and leaving a path of destruction behind me. My trusty 2004 Dell XPS Inspiron sadly passed away for the 6th and final time. I got some new toys that need attention. Things are moving fast.

So out from the "Home Brew" benchstation goes the 790i setup, complete with Areca 6 Raptor Raid array. But before we do that, lets run some quick tests on the Koolance VID/LN2 and K|ngp|n F1 for kicks:

Now assemble the battered and electric-tape sprayed 790i and a couple good ol getto insualted 8800 ultras, an xonar x2 sound card, some water and case and we have a 24/7 rig again .

Yep, no sense is replacing the gpu, the mobo is showing signs of extreme wear, it did its job, may it finally rest in pieces. Now the processor on the other hand, that suckers gonna get a new home and slapped around a bit.

If you figure out what those reflective balls of flesh on either side of your nose are for, you might just start maximizing their performance, maybe even overclock them a little so you would notice that i'm set to BUSY! errr go, I was installing some proggies at the time.

Hehe, thx tho, appreciate the gesture but she has been given a proper burial.
