BTW!!!
if anybody was wondering what's actually in this booger, it's modest but it'll run doom3 @1280x1024 all high settings (xcept w/ 4x aa of course) @ 80 fps so not too bad.

[[DGN]Nexus]

nah, that looks alright to me. The colors are the only thing that bother me, and how can you anely run on only 40GB? It'd drive me nuts...

[xavier2010]

how about now? oh the 40gig? yeah i know... i need to upgrade

[xavier2010]

hey as a supplies update, i now have a good sheet of lexan for the window. i'm now thinking of a full radioactive theme. yeah i know it's been played out like paris hilton has had 1 nighters but i'm thinking of something totally fresh. hopefully i'll have the mesh i need soon so i can start doing some real work to the case.

Hellow everybody.. I know it's been awhile, there is no progress to my system. hurricane katrina got me. after makeshift fixing the phone line thats ripped out of the pole (really not hard i should become a phone guy ) and getting a generator and using my fionce's laptop since my pwr supply sucks too much power, im finally able to reply to all of you again. this really sucks man.. been without power for about three weeks now, but whats even crappyer is there is people with power north south east and west of me!!! btw, if everybody is wondering i live in south mississippi, in pass christian where none of the big media cares to show where the hurricane ALSo hit. as a matter of fact it hit so hard here you cant go to the beach... at all.. why?? dead bodies. search and rescue and all that. half of hwy 90 is washed out. sorry for venting but this just sucks not on the government or anything just the situation. oh yeah.. btw, those army mres (meal ready to eat) dont taste good at all. not complaining, free food is free food just wish it was back to normal.. well i do have a new computer model for the final product. i cant post it right now though because it's on my desktop. i think you will all like it. not the doom3 mod by far but pretty pleasing to the eye. the code name for now is called the XFORCE 1 but i'm thinking about calling it katrina and making custom hurricane looking fan grilles. sound cool? well hope to post it as soon as i get power. l8r everyone!

[xavier2010]

well, i'm back!!! got power? YES! been without a phone again for the past week cause the power guy's ripped the phone cable out of the box and buried it (dumb... really dumb..) but after sweltering like a pig digging it back out and reconnecting it, it's all back to normal well here is the new updated model of my system! *feel free to use as wallpaper!

[xavier2010]

new update: i now have a new 19" hitachi cm721f monitor (tube is still better than lcd for me) an lg external dvdrw, an hp multimedia keyboard (very functional, better than the old keyboard) and on it's was is a Hiper Type-R 580W Power Supply with modular 'areal' style connectors. this thing is sweet. very sweet. iv ditched the double 80mm front fan idea for a single 120mm since i need the extra space to mount memory card readers. hope to have new pix soon!
