Vista - Show us your rig

**cosmin2007** · 03-11-2008

Will add full specs as soon as I get home in the other thread.

**Dzomlija** · 03-11-2008

Edison, what chassis is that?

**roy69** · 03-13-2008

Unfortunately, my rig (As seen in http://www.vistax64.com/general-disc...tml#post533290) went south thanks to mother nature and a lightning bolt to the mains supply that my UPS could not stop. Now I'm just waiting for the insurance payout, so I can build a new machine.

Post a pic of the fried PC.

Other peoples disasters are some peoples delights

Won't see much other than the chassis and hard disks (all that survived) - the insurance company took all the damaged components for assessment before paying out for replacements.

This is what they are going to give me:

PSU: AOpen® 700Watt
Motherboard: ASUS MB-M3A32-MVP Deluxe/WiFi-AP Quad Crossfire
Memory: 2 x A-DATA® DDR II-800 2048MB (4GB)
CPU: AMD® Boxed Phenom™ 9600 Processor - 2.30GHz Quad Core
Graphics: ASUS® ATI RADEON HD 2400PRO PCI-Ex16 256MB DDR2 64Bit

Not exactly the way I wanted to upgrade Venus, but such is life...

**grimreaper** · 03-13-2008

Here's my new build I almost completed March 10, 2008.
I'll take another one later on tonight showing the video and sound card.
She's runs so smooth, and quiet.
No complaints here, and it's my first time using an evga mobo...yeah, I'm impressed.

Very nice rigs. I have an HP HDX Notebook. I'll snap a picture one of these days.

**Dzomlija** · 03-16-2008

It's official. I'll begin construction of my new rig, once the new parts arrive arrive on Tuesday morning. I'll post photos soon after.

Prometheus:

New Components:
Motherboard : MB-M3A32-MVP Deluxe/WiFi-AP
CPU : AMD Phenom 9600 Processor, 2.30GHz Quad Core, 3600mhz HT3.0
RAM : 4GB A-DATA® DDR II-800 (2 x 2GB Modules)
Graphics : ASUS® ATI RADEON HD 2400PRO,PCI-Ex16, 256MB DDR2
PSU : AOpen® 700Watt

Don't laugh at the Graphics card - That's all the insurance wants to give me. Search me why they won't replace the UPS. (Maybe it's a Telkom thing...)

Old Components:
Chassis : Thermaltake Tai-Chi Watercooled
Hard disks : Total Formatted 1.2TB (8 Hard disks)
Screen : 21" Sahara CRT (Max Res. 1600x1200)

The chassis, screen and hard disks that was inside Venus is all that survived the storm on 4 March 2008.

Hey dzomlija

Sorry to hear about your "old" rig

Glad you get to start your "new" one.

One question: Are you going to run RAID0 again ???
