My Latest Build aka The Beast...

oO Stevie Oo · 18 Nov 2010 at 06:16

This thing is an animal, just finished building it,

I hope you like

Galaxy 3 case with additional side fans

A huge 230w half a rail PSU

64mb of RAM (should be plenty)

Pentium III 700MHz (hopefully OC'ing it to 780MHzish)

Massive fujitsu 10Gb IDE HDD

Giga-Byte GA-6WMM motherboard, Chipset with Built-in Enchanced Graphics Engine
4MB (133MHz) 3D display cache
Yamaha 744 PCI sound chip

x52 speed CD-rom reader and A:\ drive (3.5")

The build

weird spacer locations

Its pretty quick, runnin windows 98

wanna order a 3DFX Voodoo for it and thinking about watercooling, but not sure due to CPU location, we shall see

Peace :cool:

What an animal - I'm well jealous!!

Think you should watercool it - that overclock will be too much for air!

(I used to have that case!

)

You might be better with a TNT2 - most games supported it, and it's significantly more powerful.

Oh, you need a joystick too if you're returning to the era of the space combat sim!

oO Stevie Oo · 18 Nov 2010 at 06:59

yeah man, It has the old joystick port on the motherboard lol

This build has made me want to rebuild my first ever PC and make it all pretty and perfect. Damn you!

TheCenturion · 18 Nov 2010 at 16:04

Can it run Metro 2033 with AA on?

oO Stevie Oo · 18 Nov 2010 at 16:58

lol cheers all, gonna do some test games tonight, think it'll be more along the lines of the original lemmings and populas lol

I think Crysis might be a bit ambitious haha

I was confused by this before. Turns out that q-f-t also means "Quit f-wording talking".

Nice build though, what are you going to use it for mainly?

Cookeh · 18 Nov 2010 at 18:24

I love it!
My current PC is only a gen older! xD

One thing I can't figure out, why is the CPU mounted on a card and horizontal?
