I am selling my main machine (. This machine I have overclocked and tweaked it to the extreme and it eats up everything that touches it like nothing. To the specs
DFI Ultra-D nForce 4 mobo (SLi capable) s939
s939 Venice core 3000+ CPU (the 3000+ was chosen instead of a dual core or a faster processor because of the overclocking capabilities)
OCZ Value Select Ram (really voltage extreme ram that they binned as value select)
ATI x800 Sappire GTO2 (really a x850 XT PE binned as a x800 GTO2)
Enermax 535watt dual 12v rail 34A PSU
Maxtor 300 GIG SATA II NCQ HDD
What I have done
Fan wise
I have installed a RAM fan and placed heatsinks on my RAM to keep them cool when I pump high voltage through them.
Replaced the fan on the video card to overclock it. It is the highly regarded Zalman fan.
Overclocking wise
Default settings
CPU 200 FSB x 9 = 1.8ghz
RAM 2.5-3-3-7 DDR400
Video Card 400/490 mhz
Overclocked
CPU 260 FSB x 9 = 2.339ghz
RAM 2-2-2-5 DDR426
Video Card 450/600 mhz
And of course I have a NEC Dvd burner (none else then NEC for me)
& a floppy.
It is a slick looking black mid tower case (not huge so it is easily transportable) the dvd burner is black but the floppy is beige. I also installed 2 intake fans in two of the 5.25 mounting slots (it has 4).
If you are interested in it I can get pictures.
I am wanting to sell it for 700$ I paid well over 1200$ for it a year ago when I built it.

My ram was just untested VX ram so it performs as good as VX. I can go a lot higher but I dropped it down because of a little heat issues. I have absolutely no errors when I primed for 24 hours which is 2 times more then most people prime for.

Just curious It looks from the picture that you have the PATA HDs on a PCI controller card, but the burner looks like it's going to the board controller. What was the reason for that configuration?

I am running them on RAID 0 and wanted them on separate channels.
