What a damn nice looking pc you got there.....can I have it? 😉


Your pc may be the inspiration of sorts for the pc I will build around February (or Jan if christmas is good to me). I've been looking for a great non-sli mobo with dual core capabilities and everything seems to point to that DFI board. Also doesn't hurt that the board isn't too expensive and is a great overclocker.

How do you like the p180? Any problems? Also how heavy is that big ol' heatsink? It looks like a monster!

The p180 is great, I love it. The only problem I had was with the audio module that came with the Ultra-D. It would not fit because of the exhaust fan. I basically would have to sacrifice the exhaust fan for the module. And thats not really an option 😛 ... It's alright though, my X-FI Platinum should be here anyday now 😀.

why don't you try "water cooling" system?
Have U tried to OC it yet? (i wanna do it for free 😀)

I'm really not that serious into overclocking to try watercooling. The processor is already running at 250x10, and I'm pretty satisfied with the overall performance.
 
Nice build. Have almost the same build as you. Same mobo, have opteron 165 instead, same PSU, same case, Mushkin extreme performance, but the black ones. Skimmed on the graphic card with 6800GT. Didn't think I needed high end card to run 1280x1024 until I got myself a 24 inch CRT, now I am kicking myself.
