Did I see a glowing logo of Asus ROG? Nice. Lab's lead chem guy has a G73 (G17? Anyway the 17.3" twin-exhaust F-117 one). Looks much more "serious" and "industrial" than Alienwares.

I don't really like that whole stealth bomber Asus has going for those laptops. But then again, I also don't like Alienware styling ever since they were bought by Dell. Older Alienware pcs were more to the point and with better hardware on each generation. Though stealth bomber or not, G7x do have nice specs, and slightly less mobile limited hardware, which is always nice.

I sent in my broken powercolor 5870 3 weeks ago and getting 6950 back.

 
Now there's a nice surprise!! Guess I'll be looking for a PC if I ever go for a dirty Radeon.

Well the card was shipped in it's retail box without any extra protection. And unlike XFX's boxes this one was really small and offered almost no protection. I've got the card running at 900/1400 with unlocked shaders.

XFX would have had the inventory needed to replace that 5870.

Hard to believe it's already been over a year and a half since I built it. I usually don't bother spending much money upgrading a rig; I find it more fun to build an entirely new one every couple years. I patiently await Ivy Bridge and beyond.
 
Anyway, used to run the i7 at 4.2GHz, but dialed it back a notch thanks to some very uncomfortable desert temperatures.

lol
 
I kicked the 760 back all the way to stock due to those very same temperatures. After enjoying weeks of 20C room temps, it's creeping up past 25C as of late.

 

[Train]

Heh, yeah, I began to find it unbearable and pulled all the overclocks back to stock during the summer and fall months. Only an industrial-sized A/C could keep up with the outside temps and high-powered space heater.
 
It's starting to get warm again, though...

I work for the Computer Services department of my university. One of the benefits of this job is that I get to salvage a lot of hardware that is damaged or decommissioned, but still useful. My latest catch is a computer which was used as part of a cluster server.
 
2x  Single-core HyperThreaded Xeon 2.4GHz CPUs 

SuperMicro X5DPA-GG Motherboard (http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/E7501/X5DPA-GG.cfm)
2 GB 133 MHz ECC DDR RAM
80GB IDE HDD
8 MB ATI Rage XL integrated video (woot, lol)
and a case that seems to be almost bulletproof.
Also of note is the fact that there is no audio output from the motherboard, so I may add a sound card at some point.
I am currently using it with Windows 7 Professional and an (also salvaged) HP L1710 monitor.
 
Not state of the art, but not obsolete either, especially for media/gaming server use. I currently have it running a Minecraft server.

Little restructuring...

Moved from a GINORMOUS Coolermaster Stacker to a Fractal Design Define R3...quite the move. Here's the end result though.
