Yeah, it's not the best amp, but it's cheap and sounds good. I think I had like 15-20$ in it not counting the tubes. I think I'll make a new/better amp. You make tube amps? Is a replica of Dynaco Dynakit III hard to build? How difficult is it to find appropriate components, especially transformers? …

That benchmark is all about the graphics card. A fast graphics card will double or triple your score. The 2001 SE score is spot on I would say. No it's not. Older version of 3D mark are vastly cpu driven. Put a older card in a system with a really fast cpu and it can more then triple the score. 03 …

Dual boot! Find an ISO image online for 2003 and buy just a scrap keycode off ebay maybe? Then install 7 as well so you can use it for both? Now that's a bad idea all over. Sorry. This is going to be a vogons game server. Maybe a mail server too. My plain is to host more then one game from it, but …

Odd im cooing my 130w xeons fine with the same 80mm fan. Don't see why a 80w cpu could not be cooled with a 80mm fan too. It's no like I need the cpu to load around 45c

Honestly its skulltrail, if you want to be accurate in how it was used, you'd install Vista with either Crossfire HD3870 X2 or SLI 9800GX2 or SLI 8800 Ultra Going for two low power 9800gt's. But it will be used for a server too... that's why I'm so tripped up. If server 2003 x64 for cheaper Id go …
