I lke building computers for fun.

My work bench in the garage usually has a couple experiments going all the time.

I saw other prople noting hardware stuff.....I sell this stuff at cost with filly licensed windows. I just like trying out new things. Is it OK to post some of this stuff in case somebody wants it?

Here is an example -

I'm upgrading my latest as well and will have 2 470 GTX cards available too. I just recieved the 2 570 GTX I ordered.

Anyway...if you guys aren't interested, all cool.....the computer below has been out in my garage for months....it needs a home. (I want the space back too)

I ahve abother I made with a Phenom Black CPU.....but I'm still benchmarking that one.

What car did this engine come out of? Jeepers thats quite a system.

Cool one

Some of the computers I build I just give away to kids that don't have one (with their parents approval of course)

Here is the specs on that one ......

Intel Q9550 2.83ghz Quad Core CPU
4GB of Corsair Ram (2 slots empty for upgrading to 8gb)
300 GB WD Velociraptor 10,000 RPM Hard Drive
1.5 TB Seagate Barracuda 7,200 Hard Drive
(2) EVGA GTX 280 Video Cards in SLI
ASUS Striker II Extreme Republic of Gamers Motherboard (Great OC Board)
Cooler Master Cosmos Case
Cooler Master Water Cooling System
1200 Watt Silverstone Power Supply
DVD/CD Writer - Reader
Removable Drive Bays (Great for cloning backup drives, trying out Linux, and general experimentation)

OK....just installed the dual 570's in my current system (I'll post a pic when I can) so I have 2 470 GTX that I could plop into this one.

Shipping this one would require draining the cooling liquid, but you can get that anywhere.

Again, once I get done playing around with the AMD Phenom Black based system I built, I'll be trying to find a home for that too.

Then I think 'm going to build a sandbridge based systen and kick the tires on one of those.

how much are you asking so people know.

I'm not asking....thats just it....just like I have 3 choppers in my garage, I have enough "stuff" to build 2 or 3 computers at any time. I have 2 whole head high cabinents of puter $hit. Honestly...its a hobby.

I have 4 real "hobbies"
1) Math
2) Finance
3) Computers
4) Choppers

The first 2 afford me the second 2.

So make an offer.....hell, I might counter lower....I'm not out to make money on these (I make a lot of money....OK?) ....I test them....benchmark them....then try to find a home for them.

I try to stay technically astute.... so I experiment

For instance...I oversee, and administer, the support for our national corporate network. (and thats just one of the hats I wear)

So, not to fear, I'm not out for money.

.....and I'm an honest man....its how I was raised

In that case, I can offer $50...lol.

LMAO....VAG

Within "reason"!

Nice try though.....liked the "strike fast" approach.

I already have 2 gaming PC's, 1 HTPC/gaming PC, and 2 laptops. I am out of space for computers, but I figured I would try.

How much do you have into that one? I am upgrading my PC in about a month, or so. I am going with the i5 2500k, ASRock P67 EXTREME4 motherboard, and a CORSAIR Enthusiast Series CMPSU-850TX 850W PSU. I already have 8GB's of memory, I am still waiting on a free video card...hopefully it will come soon.

Ill be keeping an eye out in this thread, wanting to get a second computer set up. Looks like a great rig!
