Subject: Re: Anybody interested building their own computer for the holidays?



I used to build my own. I like silent PCs and it took a bit of time to pick all of the quietest components and stick them in a quiet case (good ventilation, big slow fans, rubber drive mount isolators, etc). I've kinda switched to laptops now so I haven't built my own for a while.The last one I built had an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro All-in-Wonder video card back when it was the meanest nastiest video card on the block. RAIDed Seagate Barracuda drives, Zalman passive heatpipe GPU cooler, 7v mod on the CPU cooler, Sparkle PSU with 120mm fan, Antec Sonata case, and if I remember correctly an Asus P4PE Gold motherboard. Fastest 3D performance on the block, quick RAID 0 drives that you couldn't hear operating, video out to the TV for a computerized home theatre, and fans that you could only hear running at night with your ear under the computer desk. #nerding
