I have a dangerden bay res . I have a custom made rotor block that works on both the a64s and the axps . I'm using a hydro pump .

Also a black ice pro rad. My tems have been kinda bad lately . In the 40s . Very upset .

hows the noise factor. If i do go watercooling, im planning on taking out as many fans out as possible ie video card fan, chipset fan, heatsink fan,... Have you done something similar??

Technically, you'd have to get dually Opteron 248 (or is it 246?) processors, which might raise the price significantly.

Though the system sure sounds nice...I only wish I could get one, too.

your right, opteron 248's (or higher ), the price difference is about 200 dollars according to theInq's prediction of price cuts coming.

LOL getting her approval eh? Well I doubt that will happen for such a high end machine, but then I don't know her (but I know mine ) Mine will let me get another machine this august though (as opposed to selling parts on ebay when I upgrade).

When i play games I turn the fans up . But otherwise i have low air going threw while surfing the web and normaly stay at like 35c . When i play a game i need to raise the fans up otherwise i will get close to 50c

Its all about timing. I just have to be careful that I dont tip my hand too early. It helps also that she's in a different continent. Im in the US and she's in South Africa. Technically she wouldnt find out until she came here.
