Title: Another build by TillDeath
Post by: SNO on December 01, 2009, 05:37:44 PM: Well I finally bit the bullet and got a new system built, I had built my last box but decided this time to let TillDeath build this one. So I call him up and ask him what he thinks and we talk for a length of time and come up with the components. We started out with me letting him know what I want the system to do, and him advising me on what components have the best warranty and will work the best together. I must say this system screams and frame rates are right up to monitor refresh rates in AH. TD's service is top notch, he called me 2 hours after he saw the system was delivered to make sure everything was intact from shipping and the system was up and running. TD had already installed the OS and had AH set up with my joystick settings, so all I had to do was plug in my joystick and start flying. Two weeks after the system was delivered TD called again to make sure that everything was working properly and if their was any questions or concerns on the build. Top notch build and superb customer service.

TD has helped me with my build and I've ordered a few parts from him, was having trouble and he offered to build it for me if I sent him the parts, but eventually got it working. One helluva guy!

<S> TD, nice system SNO!

Edit: Got pics of the guts and the glory? :)

It is difficult to quote a one size covers all price due to discounts and the fluctuating market. Factor in customer desires and wallet size. With that being said Rich has helped me on several issues on different computers, advice is spot on as is customer service.

LOL um no, but a good option to add. Its kinda like an H20 system but uses beer in the loop for cooling. The tap is the drain. Bad frame rates, drain and drink then look again. :cheers:

Post by: ABDCWOT on December 08, 2009, 03:00:25 PM: um, TilDeath.... I was never given that option when you built my system.
