Macgyver Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 10 computers on a lan. 1 is a server (can be a gaming system on my 32inch tv) , Asus A7N8X, with 512mb ram, 180fsb = proc at 1710mhz.I have had 7 play FA at one time off my cable connection and it ran very well.I have 2 spare 5 port switches which leaves room for 8 more people / computers.We were playing Unreal 2003 on Invasion where you go against wave after wave of increasingly stronger and numerous aliens. That is as long as you have one person survive till they are all gone or else game over.We also have played Desert Combat, an awesome modern warfare mod, for BF1942.We had 7 players and 57 bots.Lots of action.

going54 Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 mac can u tell me how u made the home made cooler? Quote
Macgyver Posted December 18, 2003 Author Posted December 18, 2003 I made the cooler from copper plate (got from work 4 free), copper tubing, and copper rivets.I took a copper plate and cut it to fit over the cpu socket. Drilled 4 holes to match the ones around the socket.cut a piece of copper tubing 2.5 inch off. Around 1 inch tall. Cut a plate to fit on top and drilled the holes for the fittings. Drilled numerous holes in the baseplate. pounded the rivets into the holes to act as heat dissapators and to create turbulance.Soldered them as well.Soldered everything together. Added 1/2 inch fittings for input and output.1/2 inch Surgical tubing plus a 350gph pump and this water block. Extra large resevoir.Car heater core in a box with two 120mm fans for the radiator.This system is really overkill. I could probably cool three computers with it but that would be too much hassle.I only paid for the pump,fittings, tubing, solder, and rivets. Everything else I had or got for free.It was well under $50 in total.I will post some pics. Quote
Hayabusa Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 You weren't lying about the extra large reservoir. Quote
Killer From Away Posted December 19, 2003 Posted December 19, 2003 overkill and computer can never be in the same sentanceunless of corse is there is no such thing as an overkilled computeras long as the fps can go higheri will keep making my comp faster Quote
Macgyver Posted December 20, 2003 Author Posted December 20, 2003 I believe in Quake 3 at 1024x728 at max detail etc etc. They have gone over 500 fps.I get 290 fps in "timedemo 1" Quote
going54 Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 thx mac i will try and build one..BTW how big should i make the resivor Quote
Macgyver Posted December 20, 2003 Author Posted December 20, 2003 Well if you want to have an external tank. As big as you want.A heater core from any car will work fine for a radiator.Any hose will do. Surgical tubing is awesome though.You can buy a good block for $40.Copper rivets ar cheap. Drill shallow holes in the baseplate then pound them in. Then solder them as well.Concentrate the most overtop of the CPU die area.Put the pump in the resevoir. They are quieter this way.Have fun and test for leaks before you put it in your case:) Quote

EniGma Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 When i get my own house i will also decorate a whole room with computers and stuff Quote
BornToDie1955 Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 I have 2 rooms with computers : the 1st, and principal, have 3 pc (1 with win 98 and both recents with win xp for to play), the 2nd room it's the bedroom of my son with 1 very old pc (win 95) and 4 Atari ST/STE/Mega 4 computers that i dont use anymore...Egidio.

going54 Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 mac how much space will the whole thing take? Quote
Macgyver Posted December 21, 2003 Author Posted December 21, 2003 You can make it fit on top of your computer case. It would / could add a foot to the height of your case if you want to go with all external stuff. Resevoir and radiator.I ilke external b/c it is easier to make and less worries about leaks inside.

Macgyver Posted December 22, 2003 Author Posted December 22, 2003 Going 54 check this mod out. Time consuming for sure. That is another reason I go with external. http://www.overclockers.com/tips1124/ Quote
