SB 2.1 Update Thread

When did I get a 30" screen. My crts are still kicking (thank god) otherwise I would be looking at a $3000+ bill

oh then nvm what resolution are you running then?

1024x768 I can run what ever I want as there is no native res on a crt but a low res like this is just fine until I get larger screens in the future.

Yesterday I placed the big newegg order. So now 85% of the budget has been spent and all of the required parts are ordered! The other 15% of the budget will be charged soon and it includes the cooling for the gpu along with some mods that were supposed to have been included in version 1. I have also thrown in a cheep upgrade for my tv pc from a 9500 to a 220. This will greatly improve the quality of video playback.

99% of parts ordered. In 2 weeks I will have a massive performance increase!

After admins and reserved slots are processed and a little break stage 1 of the build will begin when I shut down my computer. Hopefully I can complete this stage today and be back by tonight.

Well it should come as no suprize that there was problems. It turns out that my second loops pump has a cut wire due to the way that it is transported. The pump will need to be replaced and the entire second loop rebuilt. Luckily it currently does not cool anything and so I will just remove it and continue the build and hopefully be back soon.
