Dream Machine
Posted May 23rd, 2005 at 8:50pm by Electronic Punk
It has been a while since I did the blog thing as I have been messing about in Florida or something. I saw Ryan posted the specs of the machine he wants to buy, so I thought I would start doing the same, the machine is going to be stupidly over spec and pretty much built from scratch as these things tend to have to be when changing both sockets and the kind of connection needed for the graphics card
Here is the current plan:
PSU: Not decided yet, something pretty.
Case: Cooler Master Stacker 830 (not yet released)
Processor: AMD Athlon x2 4800+ (not yet released)
Cooling: 2x Aquagate with all the trimmings (CPU, GPU, HDD, Northbridge)
Video Card: GeForce G70 Ultra (code name - not yet announced)
Motherboard: TBA
RAM: 2gig TBA
Hard Disk: Undecided, will be two pairs of RAID arrays, one for speed one for storage
Optical Drive: Sony Dual Layer (already owned) & another one for good measure.
Soundcard: Creative Labs Soundblaster 2 ZS (already owned)
Display: 2x Hitachi Imagequest 17 TFT & 42 Hitachi Plasma (already owned)
Operating System: Windows XP Professonal x64
The case looks awesome and I have been waiting for it for a while, looks like it could be expensive but I am not spending any real cash at the moment so I you could say I was saving up. I have a bit of time as many parts don't actually exist yet, but if I am going to upgrade it has to be worth it dammit!
Anyway, check out the case here:

I also reckon NVIDIAs next offering might cost a couple of quid, but I am going to suffer for having pretty much everything in the case dual something
