Building the new rig.

Chickenz · Post by **Chickenz** » March 10th, 2008, 20:10

Tried to get some pics of every stage of building the new rig. Got a bit caught up in the cooling so the stages do jump a bit randomly.

Shiny new things:

Case with mag for some scale.

8800GTS with stock cooler removed.

8800 fitted with Danger Den waterblock.

Motherboard, GFX cards, cpu (with cooler) and resevoir attached to the tray.

Close up of the cards and coolers.

Lots of things happened in between pictures. This is the almost finished case.

Just needs a little tidying up and it'll be lovely.

Well, it's good you'll kill him in a game we've not played for 8 months.

I almost played a game of CSS the other day, after seeing some dickhead on a Gamtrailers show badgering faaabulous Ben about a new version of CSS in the sequel to the Orange Box. faaabulous Ben says it's not likely.

I've had an urge to play CSS recently now you mention it.

Looks nice, although you perhaps need to press the macro button on your camera for those close-ups.

I dunno. I like the focus differences, artistic.

The big question is:

Will it blend?

Alrighty then, scheduled a CSS game for 19th March as an alternative to Teef on a Wednesday.

Excellent Plan Mr Vibrospaz

*Predicts Teef/COD over-ride

I don't get the whole case window/internal lights thing. I don't want to see what's in there at all. Even if I did, my PC is behind a door in my desk.
