    I have a bunch of photos to edit and stuff to write before I update my build log, but I thought I'd show you guys the latest: Pentium 4 2.4C Asus P4C800-E Deluxe OCZ PC4200 (that's DDR1) GeForce FX 5900 All that's left for Phase 1 is to volt mod the motherboard. The P4C has notorious voltage droop. Even with the vcore pumped crazy high it drops below stock on load, so to get where I'm going I'll have to even that out... in the meantime: So close I can taste it! And while it's not stable enough to boot into windoze... IT POSTS!

    Hey look! Goodies! And this is just the cooling gear... Radiators: When I realized I was being a little optimistic with fitting a 360 in the bottom, I decided one radiator just wasn't going to cut it. So I got three radiators. Hardware Labs Black Ice M160GTX, M184GTX, and an L Series 240. Unfortunately I was being a little optimistic about the 3rd radiator, and so the M184 will have to be used for something else. Aw shucks! Water Blocks: DANGER! DANGER! We've got a full Danger Den setup, a TDX CPU block, a pair of SLI Tyee GPU blocks, and a couple Maze 4 chipset blocks (which came all the way from Hungary!). The GPU blocks are made for Radeon X1800s, but I will be adapting one to an Nvidia FX 5900 (details on that later). The pump/res is an Enermax NEOChanger 200ml, and I grabed some Noreprene black tubing that I think is what I'll use in the final build. Probably. I think. Oh, and I grabbed a silver coil. I marked out the cuts needed to make room for the radiators. and got to work with my Dremel! Time for a test fit! Nice and snug, just the way I like it! Note the big rubber feet I picked up. I haven't quite figured out how I'm going to mount the reservoir yet (contemplating making some custom U-bolts), so zip ties will have to do for now. The chipsets on 875P boards have silly retention clips instead of mounting holes, so I fashioned some mounting hardware from some fan clips. They work well enough for some testing, but I think I'll need to craft a more robust solution. As for that overclock... progress is being made. Slow tedious progress.

    Some of em just have old thermal paste on em, but some had stickers on them that someone put thermal paste right on top of without removing. They come off easy now that they’ve been cooked. 2.4c?

    I'm chasing that 1200mhz FSB on a 2.4C

    My Pentium 4 habit is getting out of hand... Those ugly ones just showed up from Israel!

    Six 140mm fans at full speed should probably be kinda loud. Might want to get a fan controller.

    Both were hand me downs from my main system.

    why? cause it doesn’t have a heatspreader?

    my Q6600 bottlenecked my 660 and 770 hard thankyouverymuch

    Depending on the motherboard you can get a Xeon X5460 running in the same socket with an adapter for about 30 bucks. Big upgrade from those Q6600s.

    Really? I feel like that has more in common with a 1080... then again, everything since the 280 looks the same to me. To tell the truth I picked it because it’s layed out like a Radeon X1800.

    my new baby is here and ready for a water block:

    Is that a P4 Titan with a DPS2 power module?! How does it'd OC? Inquiring minds need to know!

    I'm slowly amassing a pile of goodies. Updates soon.

    I am so sad about all the images I've lost due to hosting issues... I have an entire modded rig I spent forever on (and it was gorgeous) with zero documentation to show for it.
