Voltron Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 there's some insanity going on there, alright It is Fitz, after all.
Grahame Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 Quite the heatsink there. I'd be interested to see what the core temps are ...
Fitz Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 ah, so you used the myspace angle to make it look prettier than it is. Not really, you can't see the wires behind the drive cage without taking the other panel off, and you can't really see the power wires stuffed up top without getting at a good angle and shining a light in there.
jinp6301 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 And I didn't even do any cable organizing, besides tying up the slack on the fan wires. I just shoved everything over into the unused 5.25" bays or behind the drive cage. ahh, the "secret rat nest" method of cable management. let us know if you can break the 5ghz barrier

tyrion Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 That is a nice polo. Peter would like that for his FC jersey collection. Picked up a few things at Binnys that I cannot get locally. i picked up a bottle of Angels Envy last week after getting a taste at my local liquor store. It's good stuff. In addition to that got my wife her birthday, which is today as well as our 25th anniversary present. I'm glad that is out of the way. Picked up a new 10 year mortgage which closed today. Needless to say several watches have gone out and several have come in. Finally, my 77 disc Grateful Dead Europe '72 box set arrived today. I have a lot of ripping to do.
mikeymad Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 i picked up a bottle of Angels Envy last week after getting a taste at my local liquor store. It's good stuff. Agreed.... But watch out mine seems to have evaporated too fast.. maybe something with the fancy bottle.. Cheers
tyrion Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Nice. I haven't opened mine yet. I think it may be time.
Absorbine_Sr Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Finally, my 77 disc Grateful Dead Europe '72 box set arrived today. I have a lot of ripping to do. Very envious MIke. I'm not a Deadhead for the most part, but I love the original Europe '72 set. Enjoy! Oh, and it looks like the US Grand Prix will be November 18th, 2012 in Austin. I hope to be there.
tyrion Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 I've spent the last few hours listening to the first show and ripping the first three. I should have all the ripping done this week end. I saw that they were looking to moved the race. Is it official? I am going to try to be there.
Absorbine_Sr Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Calendar was ratified today. So which of our HC folks lives near Austin and has floor space for some folks to crash on? If willing, I'll buy your race ticket(s). Edited September 1, 2011 by Absorbine_Sr
mikeymad Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Oh, and it looks like the US Grand Prix will be November 18th, 2012 in Austin. I hope to be there. I think that it is pretty much set... will be planning for it myself as well.

If willing, I'll buy your race ticket(s). I have a 5 bedroom place. About 15 minutes from the track. If you guys are serious, I'd host a meet. I'd ask perhaps to put up my wife and kids in a hotel, depending on the festivities envisioned. My place is about 3000 sq ft, lots of room for all. Edited September 1, 2011 by luvdunhill
raffy Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 In for the party! I've always wanted to see F1 cars live, esp. when they had those V10 monsters in the late 90's.

We can work out the details as we go, but yeah, we can make arrangements for your family. Formula One combined with HC family and the festivities that go along with that? Fuck yeah!
shellylh Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Not sure about the whole car race thing but I would definitely drive up for a little HC get together!
Absorbine_Sr Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Not sure about the whole car race thing but I would definitely drive up for a little HC get together! Look into some of the math involved in F1 engineering and competition and you may just be surprised.

Fitz Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 Not yet bought, but in the process of getting tickets for the Within Temptation concert. If I can score time off when I get to work tomorrow, then I'll buy airfare up to Newark. Why did you have to tempt me with this, Colin. Auuuggghhh. Oh how my wallet weeps. And they're bought.
Hopstretch Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 For the desktop. Albeit in piano black. I really like the organic aesthetic overall, although the port may be a little ... too ... organic.
Aura Posted September 1, 2011 Report Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) ^nice speakers Stretch! ^ And I didn't even do any cable organizing, besides tying up the slack on the fan wires. I just shoved everything over into the unused 5.25" bays or behind the drive cage. This is the best I could get my rig looking. The damn mobo power cord running straight across still bothers me to this day. Edited September 1, 2011 by Aura
