Kylilin Posted February 22, 2002 Posted February 22, 2002 I don't know, I built it out of peanut butter and match sticks, it runs pretty well...
Ham Yoyo Posted February 23, 2002 Posted February 23, 2002 Pentium III 550 256 MB PC 133 RAM GeForce3 Ti 200 video card (just bought 2 weeks ago) Creative Labs Soundblaster 512 EAX Soundcard with 4 Cambridge Soundworks SBS52 speakers (just bought 2 weeks ago) WD 30.7 GB hard drive Windows 98 Panasonic E70i 17 inch monitor The first week of April I'm going to upgrade my motherboard and CPU to a Pentium 4 1.7 ghz with 256 MB PC2100 DDR memory.
WD_ToRMeNt Posted February 24, 2002 Posted February 24, 2002 Hehe I just added two 12 volt exhaust fans to my box.
CaptainRAVE Posted February 24, 2002 Author Posted February 24, 2002 Well I have room for one more air conditioning card......that would push up my total fans to 11........And maybe later on I may add a little construction of mine that allows you to put another fan onto the case fans. I could increase my fans to a total of 15 if I do that and add the air conditioning card....but at the moment 10 fans is enough for me
G-Ninja Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 Originally posted by CaptainRAVE Im glad to see I have the best system here Hmmm.... i think not. Even with your 10 fans (are you even overclocking?), a lot of systems posted here outperform yours - RatBoy, Outlaw, definitely Jyt-Pon Dai'el, and others. Plus now me - Athlon XP 1800+ Msi K7T266a Pro 2 512 mb DDR GeForce 3 (+ big O/C) SoundBlaster Audigy DVD, CD rewriter, and all the rest of that crap ps what MB u running?
G-Ninja Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 plus my comp has alloy wheels and a turbocharger and is powered not by an electric power supply, but by a pool if midichlorians i have in my room. and its pink.
Wacky_Baccy Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 Not a lot - anything from a few dollars to 30 - depends if you want one with phenominal performance (and noise), or one with less performance, and considerably less noise... Thermaltake has an interesting one - it has a thermal sensor to control the fan speed, which is excellent for when your comp is idle, and you don't want (or need) the extra performance and noise. (Great if you have it in your room, and sleep - or try to - with it on.) The 80mm Thermaltake one ('Smart Fan') would cost roughly $10-$15, I think - although you'd probably need two (one intake and one exaust) to get the temp. low enough so that they'd both run at the lower speed and noise. That's just one option, of course. If you have a look around (on the net or in local stores), you're bound to find something that suits your needs. Either way, adding fans will usualy increase stability, and also quite possibly prolong the life of your components, so it's well worth doing
digl Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 Athlon TB 800mhz 128mb sdram pc 133 Geforce256 32mb ddram Asus A7V mobo 40gb hd I should get a GF3 or a R8500 soon, and then use the Geforce1 on my old comp, PII333, 32 (32!)mb ram (will add some more ram too) and 6 gb hd, and that piece of crap should be able to run JO, to play against my bro
CaptainRAVE Posted February 25, 2002 Author Posted February 25, 2002 Originally posted by G-Ninja ps what MB u running? 512Mb DDR. Hopefully soon the Geforce 4 will be out aswell .
Darth Simpson Posted February 25, 2002 Posted February 25, 2002 No, RAVE, he's asking what kind of motherboard you are using, not how much RAM you have. You've already informed us about that several times...
CaptainRAVE Posted February 25, 2002 Author Posted February 25, 2002 I dunno the name of it. But its pretty good. I'll tell u the stuff I can remember about it (roughly)...........socket A 200/266 clock, 6 PCI,1 AGP and 1 pointless CNR, 6 SCSI, 6 USBs, and a fan (had to metion the fan).

Hal_Horn Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 I just ordered a new system just to play JO. I will use it for other games too, but JO was the one that finalized my decision. 1.4GHz Athlon 256 DDR Radeon 7000 I am going to add my own 30GB HD as soon as the rest gets here
Ham Yoyo Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 In a few weeks I'm going to upgrade my PIII 550 to a Pentium 4 1.8 ghz Northwood. I can't wait!

ZePhyR Posted March 6, 2002 Posted March 6, 2002 Are computers hard to build? I seem to have this mental picture in my mind of how to put everything together, but th most I've done before is install additional ram. It's not really that tough is it? Are there certain precautions to take when putting everything together? Is http://www.pricewatch.com a good place to buy parts? What all parts do I need? Case, Mobo, Ram, Video card, sound card, CPU, DVD/CD stuff? Am I missing anything? I would like to build a Comp for college. I have a year to save up. Do I sound like a newbie? I thought so too. Maybe this should be a new thread...

Maybe this should be a new thread... You are missing a few things. You need a monitor, keyboard and a mouse. You might want to check out http://www.googlegear.com . I'm going to buy my Mobo, CPU, and RAM from them when I upgrade to my Pentium 4 1.8 ghz Northwood.
Wacky_Baccy Posted March 6, 2002 Posted March 6, 2002 Which PSU are you getting for that P4 1.8? Just curious
Ham Yoyo Posted March 7, 2002 Posted March 7, 2002 This is the stuff I'm ordering. I will get it installed the week of March 24th just in time for JKII. I can't wait!
