rolling56's C2D build pics - Club CD Freaks

Bob · 28-05-2007

Some people in "What have You Bought......" thread wanted pics of my build so here they are. If you don't know what's going on then don't build one

I'm not making captions for these pics but they should be in order amd i need to make the wiring better.

Here's my part list from my order.

More pics coming up.

Bob · 28-05-2007

Here's some more. I can only post 10 pics at a time.

Bob · 28-05-2007

ok here's the last of them and here's after i put the rest of my drives i wanted in it so far.

Nice Rolling. I thought you bought 4 Gb of that Gskill Memory (Micron D9). Saving it for a rainy day are we?

Yep rainy day.

Nice going rolling, I'll have to do mine as well when I get all the parts which will be a few months.

C2D's are nice. Mine is same speed as my single core (2.4) and it runs a good twice as fast as the single core does at stock speeds.

The really great thing (IMO)about C2D's (E6600 at least) are you can get 300-400 Mhz overclock easily without pushing it. Like nealh said:

Yep Sure Did. Any time.

E6600 is a great CPU and you have a beautiful case for one.

Mine is E6320. Honestly, I feel even Sempron for US$25 is powerful enough to handle most things I do with computers, but who wouldn't want an 8-core or even 16-core processor if made available?

Thanks Ken and sure who wouldn't want an 8 or 16 if it was available

After you or i or whoever builds a new pc it's obsolete

if yours is obsolete and you need an excuse to work on another one, I'll take it off your hands

after all...it's all old technology anyway now!

naaa i'll keep it awhile. It's just technology moves so fast, it's hard to keep up money wise. I'd like to build a new machine once a yr but i don't have the funds.

That's to bad sorry to hear. I know how women are, every time my wife leaves the house to go shopping i say "spend spend spend"

then i hear no no i won't buy much, then she comes home with SACKS of stuff. I say "what did you buy?" and she say's oh nothing
