well jabba, you can take some comfort in the knowledge that even if it fucker doesnt work, it will still look the bollocks! :P

Jabba 09-27-2004 01:42 PM

It works great better than ever thanks. It runs at 3.8 GHZ which is 200 mhz slower than with the vapochill but runs happily 24/7 and is much quieter as well now.

nice, i've been motoring the progress, i missed you're web cam, and staring at the reversed parked lambo and ferrari :P

i can understand how painful and expensive some leaning can be (ie: my own sys) but it was worth it in the end for the satifaction when it worked and i made it work :)!

Wow, great looking computer Jabba, It's sad to hear that your vapochill system was not reliable 24/7. Just out of curiosity, are you having any voltage drop problems with your p4 chip when it's running at full load? I've heard stories about the MAX3 board dropping a bit of voltage when it runs at full load resulting in a poorer overclock. There's a physical modification that you can do to your board if you want to fix it (I'll send you more info about it if you're interested), but I'm sure you find that 3.8Ghz is fast enough :D

Jabba 10-25-2004 05:05 AM

hmmm interesting...not had any problems in that dept so far....

i know the pain Jabba, my computer caught on fire because of the power supply and ruined the motherboard :twisted:

but take it as i do, it's all a learning experience. my lesson, never keep a power supply for 6 years!

if u still want 4.0GHz equivalent tho, then AMD now has the Athlon 64 4000+ (http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/...5_9487,00.html) but i guess after all ur hard work u probably just wanna get wat u have workin.

anyway, one thing is for sure, u'll always have something to look back upon and smile at 30 years from now! :D

Jabba 10-25-2004 05:50 AM

Yep quite happy with it at long last.

topgeartom 10-25-2004 07:33 AM

Thats what happens when you open a thread from a year ago.

Jabba 11-21-2006 06:16 AM

Yes, you have a point, besides its been well and truly replaced now with a 4GHZ conroe and Savrow are no longer in business anyway, serves them right, for fucking me over though.
