+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv286/Body_Shield/DSCF0021.jpg) Antec 1200 case (+1 extra side fan), Asus deluxe 790FX ATX MB, 8GB of Corsair Dominator ram, AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition, EVGA GTX290 Core 216 Superclocked Edition, Thermaltake SpinQ heatsink, Corsair 650W PSU (a little low but it still works), 2-10k RPM 150GB HDDs, 1-10k RPM 300GB HDD, 1 650GB 7200RPM HDD, shitty DVD/CD reader, and this weird fine dust that can get through the filters. I'm fairly sure I can't have it overclocked in the summer... | ||

But it's quiet, cool, and surprisingly, the positive pressure to keep dust at bay thing actually works pretty well, even with the fans on low. I am tempted to add more fans, and turn the optical to pop out the side though. | ||

edit: just noticed they quote it at 3000 USD, that is about 3 times what I paid for mine by finding deals, if anyone was planning to upgrade | ||

As reference, it absolutely demolishes anything I've thrown at it so far. Crysis 2 on "extreme" runs well over 100 fps without even thinking of any graphic lag. And because its an i72600k, with a p67 moboard, it is literally designed 100 percent to be overclocked. Mines actually still at 3.8ghz, but from what I read you can achieve 5ghz pretty easily, not to mention you can OC the graphics cards and ram clock. I can't imagine any game in the near future pushing it. Seeing as Crytek sold their souls to the console port devil, along with everyone else, yeah, we're boned that way. I barely ever touch consoles, and I still want new ones to come out so I can start pushing my PC again. Of course, I'm sure the hardware manufacturers are thinking the same thing, since if you look at Steams hardware info they collect, high end PCs just aren't the norm for gaming right now, between the economy and low-powered games.

Not that I have a clue how I'd actually make the thing sweat without cheating and using benchmarking tools just to giggle at results. | ||

Seeing as no gamer could resist promptly using the rest of the fridge for beverages. Best way would probably be to build into a semi-airtight plexiglass box mounted near the vents, with the heatpipes coming through some sort of thermal resistant epoxy coated holes straight up, with a duct off the vent attached the same way over the heatsink to guide the air past. | ||

Holy shit, a computer case doubling as a fridge would be any nerd's dream. Invent some way so you don't need to go to the bathroom anymore and you never have to get up from your pc again | ||

Invent some way so you don't need to go to the bathroom anymore and you never have to get up from your pc again Install the whole setup in front of the toilet using a wall mount for your display. Mount a keyboard and mouse tray to one of those special metal rigs you can buy to put next to the toilet to help disabled/elderly sit up and down. Microwave underneath. Cot on floor next to tub. Might take a decent sized master bathroom, but still. | ||
