Everybody knows The Simpson's right? And of course everyone knows and loves Moe's Tavern, right?
This mod will turn a Compaq Server into a WaterCooled version of Moe's Tavern.
The victim:
Dis-assembly:
Done:
Battle Wounds:
Sketchups to follow Sometime this week.
Cant wait
server porn!! yes! lol look @ all that ram. sexy. :D
That's all of about 256MB ram lol
you should make it beer cooled rather than water cooled. It's a tavern after all, and I think Homer would approve. :D
...and I was going to ask where he is putting the taps...Quote:

Either I will need to fab my own mobo tray or chop and salvage one from another case:
Lots of room for rads:
More to come as tomorrow is last day at school then 3 weeks off!
Yay, I'm getting a Core i7-940 for $329!
get a mo-ra if you have the coin. most epic rad of all time.
Picked up some Bondo earlier, plan to actually get some work done tomorrow
Going to pick up 1 or 2 '77 Bonneville Heater Cores $25 each.
I can now outline some specs for the actual computer:
ASUS p6t SE
6GB (2GB*3) Patriot Gaming RAM
Core i7-940 with HeatKiller 3.0 LC
2*500GB Raid 0 HDD with 1TB backup drive
I'll edit the above list as I get more, and as parts arrive I'll post pictures
:banana:, Who don't like the simpsons :D, gotta subscribe to this. :santa::up:
Couple of things--Since my i7-940 was unstable, I returned it and picked up a 920 D0 instead.
Also, Since my metal working skills suck, and I have 0 metal working tools, This will be a scratch build out of MDF, etc.
hooray! Another MDF user! :P
Hopefully getting to Home Depot tomorrow to pick up a big board or two of MDF/other wood. Let's hope for some progress
Sidenote: My i7 is running 4.0Ghz 1.306 vCore
nice!
This is NOT dead. I will be redoing the plans and doing a scratch build.
yeah, I'd been wondering what was goin' on :) glad to hear it's still happening.
Just need to find the time to sketchup.
If you have any pictures of Moe's, they are greatly appreciated!
What I have come up with so far:
lookin good!
Looks about right to me other than the billboard but smart thinking of it :):up:.
I should do a springfield elementary one hehe :banana:.
I'll probably end up doing the whole town, if this idea catches on
Only time will see what catches my fancy.
I was also thinking springfield church.
Now that would make an interesting Folding cluster in the basement.
Next up is the power plant, with WORKING water-cooling towers
ooo cant wait to see that!
Have to do this one first
I would like to welcome Mimo Monitors onto the project.
They are sending me a 710-S to use as the billboard.

With a working nuclear power plant as well maybe? :twisted:Quote:

I wish I could do a working power plant :P
I'd like to welcome Crucial on board with this project as well. They sent me 2 kits of their 3*1GB Green Ballistix Tracers.
:) Especially with the radioactive green memory :D.Quote:
