My project

[PP Mguire]

I know it isnt much but heres what i call the mini tower of blue death. I call it that because its a mini tower (sort of) and blue death casue my Bigger computer has blue LED fans like i just put in this one. when i mentioned my project in my last thread this is what i was talking about.
System Specs
PentiumMMX 233mhz Socket7
256mb PC100
Voodoo2 SLI (yes SLI lol)
Nvidia Riva128
SB LIVE! 5.1 w/ livedrive (i just put it in after i took the pics)
48x Creative CD-ROM
2.5gig WD cavier (spell?)

*heres some pix to laugh at

heres the front

heres a better pic of the inside

yes thats a modded thermaltake heatsink lol. and i have a Blue Antec fan in the side (look hard you can see it)

Since we're kind of on this topic, how does a fan like that thermaltake heatsink fan work on motherboards?

 

[PP Mguire]

well actually the fan isnt ont the mother board, its on an adapter that goes straight to the 12v connector from the power supply that i got from my smart fan2. i tried looking but you cant see it in those pics.

how do u use sli on that computer???...i thought it was brand new technology

nopee SLI was used with the voodoo 2 , the voodoo 2 was the fastest card on the planet but 3DFX devised a scheme to make it even faster, that scheme was SLI

u can see it in the pics that P.P posted too, that pc was a monster back in the days

 

[PP Mguire]

actualy it still is a monster on the right games! Dont think the SLI part is workin right but i have no way of telling really. thing is actually quite fast really for the cpu and type of ram im using. I liek it and it sits next to my big machine waiting for me to play Descent and warcraft2
and as you can clearly see i have the cable too!

 

[contry]

u should try to run quake with one card and see how it looks and performs and then add ur second card see if it performs any different or looks different

 

[PP Mguire]

i dont have an original copy of quake1 so i guess i cant do that :/ i do have quakeIII though.

 

[Nubius]

you could probably run 3dmark01.....that'll give a decent result of overall system performance.......for testing solely the graphics cards you could TRY 3dmark03, but honestly I don't see it being able to run it very well at all.......but atleast that way you might be able to tell if the SLI is actually working

 

[PP Mguire]

You really think it would run 3dmark01? I didnt think it would so i didnt bother putting it on there and i seriously doubt it would run 03 lol.

if your building a custom spec, i would put the best stuff in there, obviously unless your on a budget, and then you have to be carefulo what you buy!

This is just a screw around thing, of course im not buying the parts cause they are just laying around for me to use. If i was building a bigger system that i actually buy parts of course i would have (or try) the best parts.
