wheels would be a must??? that thing must weigh a lot
A new day, a new update =)
Ah well... finally getting close to completing this one, stuff is coming together quite well, and the computer is booting !
Lets take this step by step though...
New shipment
Not much to say about this one, finally received my OCZ flex kit to fill in the other mobo, and some 120mm fractal design fans rated at 19db
Etches!
Was over at a good friend a few days ago and got him to cut out a decal my ladie had drawn for a earlier project, the application is quite simple too, just tape it up, apply some force, and take off the upper layer of foil, and there we go ^^
Booting it up, the first run!
The time had finally come, time to boot it all up !
And to my huge dissapointment... IT REFUSES TO BOOT WITH TWO LSI CONTROLLERS -.- god.... the frustration was overwhelming... waiting for reply from asus on this one...
Anyways... got some first temp readings up too, and it looks more then promissing, the temperature havent budged, even after a 24 hour idle with both systems on, still showing under 25c =) The water keeps a decent 18c too, and all the disks keep under 27c, same with the 15k rpm sas drives
Will get some stress tests soon, just need to get OS installed first
Cable management
This part has caused some headaches too, trust me :P
Anyways, quite simple going, just some patience and alot of plastic strips, didnt turn out that bad at all imo, was quite alot of sleeving that was needed on the cable splits though
10cm to short
The 8 pin ATX power cable was ofcourse to short =/ had to cut it open and extend it, wired it all up on the backplate of the mobo when i was done though, so turned out OK
And have a sack trolley for transport my friends :P
turned up just a bit over 60kg btw ^^
Lol, good old sack trolley haha. Looks very good I must say, nice work on the HDD power and SATA cables, very neat and tidy.
60KG? HOLY S**T! Thats one friggin heavy computer! :eek: well, really its 2 computers, but meh :)
Actually 2 and a half if you count the Intel Atom system ;) lol.
Omg ****ing 22TB 3 graphic card i am in love LOL
60 kilo lol... thats 20 kilo more than mine xDDD and i can barely lift mine!
you handled the cable manegement well IMO :P
You need some bigger monitors than that for this beast.
wow ... 60kg isnt to bad considdring what it holds... great work on the cable management man thats awsome..
and popes weak :)
