    ...And one of the gifts of the Elves was ithildin, whose name means starmoon, and which can only be read under the light of the moon...

    Scarce stuff, this ithilden, for its making was forgotten long, long ago. However, the Gates of Moria...



    And when night falls (or UV light, in this circumstance)...













    Letters are still not done, the wood chews up what I used to make that with-a UV marking pen for IDing stuff... Need to cut the tip down for the letters, but they'll get on there.

    Til next time, I got nothin.

    Well, the moment we've all been waiting for is finally here, I have final configuration in hand and ready to fire up.

    Patriot Warp V2 32GB SSD
    Seagate 7200.11 32MB cache 640GB drive
    PC Power and Cooling Silencer 750 PSU

    With cooling to consist of (either all here or all ordered)

    Aqua-Computer Cuplex XT Di V2
    2 Aqua-Computer Twinplex XT
    2 ********************** (edited for awesomeness, and because you won't believe me till they arrive)
    MOSFET block has to be ordered today
    GPU loops-2xMCR320, CoolerMaster white LED fans, 2xDDC3.1
    Chipset loop-HWL Black Ice GTS Stealth 240, D4, CoolerMaster white LED fans
    CPU loop-HWL Black Ice GTX480, D4, CoolerMaster white LED fans

    And the show, thus far...
