It's been rough but he's ok. We're just here under observation to make sure he doesn't bleed anymore.
Potentially the longest thread in history...

For some peeps, 19 yrs is a life time. I don't know what "gen" that makes one from 2006. (not that I care or if it matters)

I actually just redid my SLI-DR rig and a pair of 8800GTX. One of my 1GB RAM sticks died so I went on Ebay and found some XMS Pro 400MHz real cheap and grabbed those since I always wanted them back in the day.
The crap thing is, it has my x2 3800+ in it instead of my FX-60 but that's somewhere else and I don't feel like hanging out with somebody for 4 hours just to grab it lol.
Thank you. He's been 100% since they let us leave and Tuesday marks the final day of his recovery. It's been rough, and her and I are still trying to shake off the image of waking up with him being covered in blood and blood clots.
Kids born around there are the last half of Gen Z. Guys like me who were teenagers through that period, the best gaming/hardware time ever, are the older millennials. Most of us consider the early 2000s to be peak technology and gaming. I mean, DFI in the consumer space existed.

Same here!
Dude, that DFI mb brought me back! I never was able to get one of those because they seem to sell out quick. I still want it hehe...ended up with the Gigabyte P35

This is still the same one I owned from back then, and I managed to get me an NF2 KT333 Lanparty board too (one of the green slot ones) but it cost a pretty penny.
I also have a S939 A8N32-SLI Deluxe which is actually more stable and easier to use than the DFI, way less finicky. Still prefer the DFI.
Is that a 7950GT?
omg I loved the green DFIs too! Might hunt some down on Ebay lol
I have a S775 P5N-E SLI that was beast at OCing and I still have it! I had sold off its two 8800GTs though
And I had to dig through 2007 invoices and found out it's a Sapphire X1950PRO with the Zalman cooler!

I wouldn't go down that rabbit hole unless you want to pay a ridiculous price for one of those boards.omg I loved the green DFIs too! Might hunt some down on Ebay lol

NF3 and NF2 boards rarely hit Ebay, and when mine did it was 300. I immediately grabbed it and a bunch of others had it in their cart according to Ebay.
I'm seeing more NF4 boards hit occasionally, and I almost always see the less wanted 790fx stuff. There's currently an SLI-DR Expert with FX-60 for 1500 lol.
