So here's his rig, which is currently partially finished.

Here's a box shot.

And Zedsky taking out the rear 120mm. He says he looks like he's 8. lol

The P5B-Deluxe. Nice!

The e6400. Got a new picture. Now the text is actually legible. lol

PSU and Mobo installed. The PSU cables haven't even been unwrapped yet.

GPU, X-Fi Platinum, and HDD installed. eek! Those PSU cables are intimidating.

Here's the current status of the rig. Awaiting the arrival of the ram and optical drive.

Rig Specs:
e6400
P5B Deluxe
Team Xtreem 2GB Kit (TXDD2048M800HC4DC)
Western Digital Caviar 320GB
Asus 7300GS
X-Fi Platinum
OCZ GameXStream 700W ATX12V

Don't mind the cooling. Still waiting for NCIX to get the Tuniq in stock.
Same goes for the GPU. Couldn't wait any longer for the R600 so he settled with the 7300GS for now.

Still waiting for the Ram till I can boot it for the first time.

Big thanks to all those who chipped in their opinions and recommendations.

December 19 New Arrivals

Packaged with nice Christmas Ribbons. Nice Holiday Cheer.

The LG DVD-Burner

The RAM, along with a little gift and a notepad from DirectCanada.

The RAM with Heatspreaders. Go Team Xtreem.

This was built in my 11 yr old brother's room. And those are his sheets.

nice so wait wait. Nvolutions is hired by Zedsky to build his rig? Why would you do that. Zedsky if u aren't shure how to build a pc why don't u come over nvolutions house and u build it together u both live in canada.

 

[phantomgrave]

Looks nice.

 

[NEvolution]

Thanks. It should look nicer once it's finished.
Because it was cheap. And the X1600Pro that he was intending to get was all sold out.

 

[zedsky]

lol sure sure..truth comes out Nevolution has DBZ bed sheets hahaha

I was at his house, hence the picture of me putting it together haha and yeah I hired him with payment in a McDonalds meal

o sorry i didn't exacly read the text my bad.

 

[NEvolution]

So I plugged in my OCZ 2GB kit (in my sig) into the rig, turn it on, but nothing shows on the screen.
The mobo speakers don't even beep.

Any ideas?

 

[UberN00B]

did you use the motherboard standoffs?

 

[NEvolution]

Yes, of course.

So I guess it's either a problem with the mobo or gpu. :S

 

[UberN00B]

It may be a motherboard / gfx problem. i doubt its the GFX because your motherboard usually gives post about video card errors.

 

[ENTERPRISE]

Sounds to me Like you are getting Earthed. Perhaps by Motherboard risers that shouldnt be there. Check what I said in Vent.

 

[NEvolution]

New updates in first post.

 

[NEvolution]

Update
So the mobo works now that I've ghetto rigged the setup.

Weird but it works.

 

[UberN00B]

............. No motherboard standoffs?

 

[NEvolution]

Not right now

But I'll figure it out.
Perhaps the clear plastic stickers like these actually do something.

 

[zedsky]

my poor comp...sitting on a box. oh well guess I should be happy that its still running.
