Now keep in mind this system is from 2008 and a work in progress, but I have changed the BIOS over to allow support for Quad Core Opterons and far more memory. This configuration has a ASUS L1N64SLI-WS with a WS/B BIOS, dual 2360 SE’s, 16Gb of DDR2 ECC RAM, a 240Gb SSD, a 2Tb hdd, 1Tb hdd, 2 500Gb hdd’s, ATI Radeon HD 4870 1Gb, Thermaltake VA8000 case and a Thermaltake 850 watt PSU.

I think it’s time to give an update on the system.

My new NAS. Built for ZFS with the largest currently available HDDs in mind.
The PSU is stupid for this, I am aware of that but I already had it.

Specs

• Intel Xeon E5-2630L CPU
• Asus Z9PA-U8 motherboard
• 128GB (8x16) Samsung Registered ECC DDR3 1333 RAM
• LSI 9210-8i SAS controller
• Intel X540 T2 dual 10GB NIC
• Corsair Force GT 120GB SATA SSD
• 7 x 3,5" 3TB Seagate NAS harddrives
• 1 x 3.5" 4TB WD red harddrive
• Seasonic Platinum 750 PSU with Noctua NF-F12 PWM fan
• Noctua NH-U9S cooler
• 2 x Noctua NF-A8 PWM (out)
• Noctua NF-S12A PWM (over PCIe cards)

• Inter-Tech 4U 4098-S rack case

Optimized my rack case gaming rig for airflow since I switched from the blower fan on the Vega to the open Raijintek Morpheus II. Got rid of most drives for that. Worked out great.

Specs

• 2x Noctua NF-A8 PWM fans (out)
• Inter-Tech 4U 4098-S rack case

Still a work in progress, but it’s coming along nicely. That load driven PS fan is nice and seldom kicks on unless I try to render a Blender scene or something.

I can’t believe that I never showed the ‘Pay-it-Forward’ build that I did for an artist friend of mine earlier this year.
Meet ‘Qamra’, a PC that I built for an artist friend of mine using his character Qamra as inspiration

I recently got a MSI GTX 1070 Aero and did a paint mod.

[Serifus]

Because stock clocks and thermal convection for airflow are where I want to go. Next is to try and track down all the coil whine and eliminate it if possible.

Christmas gift build for my friend’s son. It’s coming along nicely.

[psycho_666]

Hmm… Some modding took place here…

[Xaom]

Built this a few months ago but never really posted any pictures here, specs are in my bio.

[mb67]

Just some slight modding. I also did a little bit to the outside of the case as well-

Just some slight modding.

That’s the cool thing about it… You don’t need much for a great result

[Abakan_Rha]

I have a lot of work yet to do, I’ve been so lazy. Everything runs perfect though, just extremely boring to look at.

[Wolfgang]

Guess I never got around to posting in here since I rebuilt my pc. Need a few more cable combs

Pumpkin Pie Nice!

[Ramiel]

Finished a buddy’s build for him, figured I’d post it here.

1700x, 8GB 480, Coolermaster v750, old HAF case. 120GB SSD and 1TB HDD.

[SheepInACart]

Question, why put the CPU cooler with the vacume cone interrupted by the graphics card, not 90 degrees rotated so its blowing air towards the case rear?

[Ramiel]

Lol I wanted to do it that way… alas, the AM4 layout wouldn’t allow it without some Jerry-rigged nonsense (the way the bracket mounts, you can’t without a aftermarket kit). The only thing I could still do is turn it the other way. If you’ve got suggestions, I’m all ears.
