AH gaming rigs showcase!

[spitfreak01]

My son put my box together for me. I have,

Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     E6850  @ 3.00GHz (2 CPUs)
3328MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS

I have everything turned up/on in the graphics except self shadows and building shadows. Other shadows are at 1024, and I use the HiRez pak. I never notice the frames slowing. When I do have the numbers on it stays at 60 fps.

This is my desk with the controls up...

...and this one with them down. I have since split the arms so that the controls stay upright while under the desk. I didn't like the idea of the stick hanging down when I wasn't playing. I figured the spring tension would weaken.

Of course we know what I use to fly in

WOOT!

i wanna make one too!

But first we need:
-Money for wood (about 50$ at ebay xD)
-Money for 2-3 bottles of wood lime (10$ at nearby store)
-Money for new pc system (about 500$ at ebay)
-Money for pc accesoires (i just only want a joystick, a thingy to for speed and a matrox tripple head monitor)(at least $400)

Now lets see how much

This is the FASTEST System (actually two of them at same time) I have built to date.

Specs:
Case:               NZXT Phantom (White)...

Did you provide suggestions during this product's design phase? I noticed it resembled your modified NZXT Tempest cases.

You left out the 5 bottles of scotch you'll need for fabrication. That adds up to cost too!

don't lose that windows 98 box!  you might need it someday 

[ink]

druski~if TD saw my system's insides he would hunt me down and hang me from a tree.....lol     I am amazed at his work, I said a bad thing once about the prices of his systems, and so regret it, if I had the money I would so go to him, the guy is a wizard when it comes to comps, and then I read about all the other stuff he does to help and take care of his clients, I want to kick my own arse for saying what I did.

Yea, I can't agree more Ink.  I used to have a home-build that was awfully ugly, but am now running one of TD's systems at home. (mage) When a minor issue came up he went out of his way to help me resolve it.  Rich is a great guy and runs a solid business.

druski~ya if I ever get the chance im going to have him build me a system, like every thing in life I go big or not at all, I paid 1600$ for the system I have now, that was 6 years ago, I was making mad money, and come to find out the system was junk, agp graphics lol ya had 300gig and looked sick, but ive had to totaly upgrad since then, rebuilt  it all myself, lol for about 400$! lol live and learn.
