It's the safety monitor
That's an amazing configuration, I've never seen that before, and as daggernite said, it's probably hard to find wallpapers

I have no idea, what about a benchmarking gallore?

Superpi (or hexus pifast), hdtach, 3dmark2001se (the only good version there is), any other suggestions?
Open a Thread for Superpi .... 3dmark has a lot to do with video cards so anything with a x800 will fry us

Lets do Superpi 8m and Pcmark , what do you think ?

oh, and what do you use the crt monitor for?
do you check every so often to make sure there are no condensation problems?
There are no condensation issues with water cooling (that I am aware of)

Nope....I use a trackball...and with a quick spin of the ball you can go from one end to the other in a second.
