What was done...


1.) CM Stacker 830
2.) ZALMAN X2 Cooler
3.) Fitted my old 7800GTX with a Artic Cooling Accelero X
4.) Antec Neo HE500 500Watt
5.) Fitted a L.I.S. 2 Multimedia Control Centre
6.) 3 x 120mm Vantec ultra quiet FANS...

I'm quite glad to say (bragging a bit here :) ) I was one of the first people in the country with both the ZALMAN and Artic Cooler. Compared to my old aircooling the Zalman brought down my CPU by 13C running @ at 1200rpm . The Artic Cooler dropped my GPU core by 20C and runs at a maximum of 800rpm. :) Take note it's not a new Rig only the 8800GTX is....

The whole System was about R 22 000,00 and It was done before the launch of X2 and Duo's

What's not in the Pic is the:

Yamaha TSS-1 5.1 theater system with external decoder (Dolby, Prologic & DTS)

Haj

Here is an example....

I'm running doom 3 @ 1280x1024 16xAA 16xAF card quality set to maximum, Detail in doom3 set to ultra and I'm capped @ 100FPS (CPU is the bottleneck here :( )

My 7800GTX did this on 54FPS :(

Oblivion is set to 1280x1024 with EVERYTHING enabled and maxed out. Running smooth as silk :) (CPU is sitting @ 100% util :( )

The graphics are unbelievable the visual quality is bar none and I'm not doing myself any justice with the AMD64 I reckon a upgrade to Duo is imminent.
