Megiddo's new computer!

(1/5) > >>

Megiddo:
That's right, I finally buckled down and got rid of my 2.2 Ghz 768 MB monster and upgraded!

Here's the specs for my new computer:

--- Quote ---Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6400 2.13GHz 1066MHz 2MB LGA775 CPU
Asus P5N32-SLI Premium (nForce 590 SLI Intel Edition Core 2 chipset)
eVGA GeForce 7900 GTO PCI Express 512MB
Crucial Technology Ballistix BL2KIT12864AA804 2GB kit DDR2-800 PC2-6400
Seagate ST3250620AS 250GB SATA2 7200rpm 16MB Hard Drive
SAMSUNG 18X DVD±R DVD Burner With 12X DVD-RAM Write, LightScribe Technology Black SH-S182M/BEBN
Thermaltake CL-P0114 Big Typhoon 4 in 1 Heatpipes CPU Fan
--- End quote ---

The PSU is:
Ultra ULT31852 X2 X-Connect 550W Power Supply (Titanium w/UV Blue)



The case is:
APEVIA (ASPIRE) X-CRUISER-BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower



These are all stock photos, I'll take some pictures once I get all the parts and put it together.  :D

My plans for the case:
I'll be taking out those LED fans and replacing them with UV reactive fans without LEDs. This way, I can switch off all the bright lights when I go to bed.  ;)
I realize there will still be light from the PSU and the front of the case. If the case is bright, I'll just solder in a switch... and I'll just have to hope the PSU isn't very bright.

Benchmarking!
Before I install an OS, I'll be testing RAID 0/RAID 1 performance to see which I want to use (I'll do this from a live cd). I'll post any benchmarks I do in here.  :P

I've been researching parts for my new computer for the past three months, so it better be good!  :)
