Zule - my apologies for attributing your PC to Richard. My comment should thus read "Nice - definitely from the Zule 'Orange and Black' era".

Very impressive Zule,

The orange is a nice touch.

Amazing build indeed. I'm wondering why Gigabyte supplies 6 PCIE slots although only 4 dual-slot GPUs fit in. The two PCIEX4 are wasted.

Absolutely beautiful.

We may as well see them:

I have followed custom PCs for years. I have never had the money to build one of my own, a monster I mean. This one is the best I have ever seen, through all of the magazines and websites, it is the best.

KUDOS! I hope it is a number crunching monster!

Zule, how did you end up with a computer creation date of 11 Feb 2012 ??

Obviously everything changed, but did you reuse an old drive/OS and Seti read that info?

Well I just updated My thread some, come over and take a look, one of My PCs just got some work done on it today.

You simply move your data directory to the new system.

I took a better pic of the Quad 590 PC(Pegasus). The case now has 3 GTX590 cards installed, of course all the water blocks will need to be cleaned out before use, since 2 blocks are used and 2 blocks are new(at least when I bought them).

I have been following this thread since long. Never built a super cruncher, however, here are my rigs.







I am still in the process of building my 3rd rig. So far, it is just a CPU cruncher. Got the motherboard cheap on ebay so I could reuse my old CPU. GPUs will need to wait till I have the budget. Currently uses an old Radeon X1300 since there is no onboard video.



The second card on my main rig GTX 285 gave out a couple of months back. These were the very first GPU that I purchased way back in 2009. Rigs 1, 2 & 3 are controlled through this via VNC.



______________

Here is my crunching machine. Since you have seen tons of pictures from the outside and the inside of a machine here is my desktop.



If I remember correctly the RAC will gradually shift to a horizontal line when it begins to reach its maximum value. No sign of that happening yet.

Maybe something for someone with a mini-ITX motherboard and them wanting to go for water cooling, but none of the packages thus far was useful: Corsair H5 SF Prefilled Water Cooling.

It looks pretty snazzy...
