I'm currently waiting for parts to come in via mail, for a "sleeper" IBM NetVista project (I'll share it here later once I've got some sort of results). My current parts inventory is as follows...
- IBM NetVista A40p (old "desktop" style, mATX)
- ASUS A8N-VM CSM (GeForce 6150/nForce 430)
- AMD Athlon64 FX-60
- 4 * 1 GB OCZ Platinum Edition (2-3-2, PC3200)
- SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS
- PCIe 1x USB + Firewire 800
- 2 * WD740GD (RAID 0 via motherboard)
- Maxtor MaxLine II 300GB (hella noisy but hey it works)
- NVIDIA GeForce 8800 Ultra (Dell OEM for reference design and a card bracket)
- Systium ST450-SFX FSP450-60GHS, 450W, 80 Plus Bronze
Also planned...
- 2 * 80MM Noctua fan replacement (one goes to the front intake, other goes to the back - glued in or tape mounted - for exhaust).
All parts are on the way... But I could always swap them out later - and sell, perhaps. If you guys have any suggestions please do enlighten me!
Best Regards and Thanks in Advance...

EDIT: Changed title as plan has changed to move away from a 7950GX2 for a 8800 Ultra.
