So last month I built my dream machine.

I have been planning to do this for roughly 2 years now. So I finally saved up and took the leap.

Here are the specs:

• Case: Silverstone TJ09
• Motherboard: Intel Bad Axe 2 (LOVE this!!)
• CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe 2.4GHz 4M shared L2 Cache
• Hard Disks: 4 X 250GB 7200RPM 16MB Cache, result: I set 2 to a RAID1 configuration for a default backup of OS installation. 2 Additional drives set up standardly.

  Update: I actually ended up reconfiguring my RAID to a RAID10 configuration (2 stripe + 2 mirror). The results are outstanding.

• Total available disk space: 750GB 500GB
• Fans: CPU: VIGOR GAMING CLT-M2I 92mm, 2 top dial-controlled 120mm fans, 1 front intake 120mm fan, 1 rear exhaust 120mm fan.
• Video Card: ATI Radeon X1950XTX 512MB (not multi-gpu, I dont see how a performance increase would be possible!!)
• Sound Card: XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro (I know my motherboard is a better sound unit, not to mention it has 8.1 channel audio, I just wanted something separate from on-board)
• TV Tuner Card: ATI All-in-Wonder 650
• PSU: ThermalTake 700W

Those are really all that are worth mentioning, I am using my old dvdrw & floppy drives, nothing special about them.

Now, here is some pics of my rig! I should also mention; I just realized I am not great at taking photos! That or for the life of me I can not seem to fix the horrible common blur problem I am having with my camera. Anyway, enjoy!

Well, I’ve not posted much lately, but I really want to get back to it.

I was forced to tend to this blog because the amount of comments on one of my post’s has become really large, well large enough to make the page take a while to load, so I added this very nifty WP plugin called Paged Comments. I highly suggest this, very very handy.

I have been messing around here and there with Flex/AS3 and FisixEngine. But not nearly as much as I would like. I had a brother that passed away in October, and so I haven’t been very social, and haven’t been posted enough!

I promise to start posting more!! Honest!!
