While its not top of the line, my computer is my baby. Big Grin | :-D

While programming is my primary passion, I enjoy overclocking my computer too. The need for speed permates ever sector of my life, so when I have my car and programs at top performance, I tweak my comp. Here ya go:

* Server 1
Dual P2 400, clocked at 510Mhz
256Mb Ram
40Gigs Drive space
Windows 2000 Adv. Server
Used for: Web Server, SQL Server, Internet gateway, Firewall, Clustered with server 2

* Server 2
Dual P3 800, clocked at 1060Mhz
256Mb Ram
30Gigs Drive space
Windows 2000 Adv. Server
Used for: Web Server, SQL Server, Clustered with server 1

* Server 3
AMD 400
128Mb Ram
4Gigs Drive Space
Debian Linux
Used for: PostgreSQL database server

* My Baby Cool | :cool:
Dual P3 800, clocked at 1.1Ghz
Abit VP6 motherboard
768Mb Ram
50Gigs Normal Drive Space
120Gigs RAID, using two 60Gig Maxtors

Cooling: Watercooled with a custom built cooling system. Currently using a single-stage water loop, with an 80Watt peltier on each cpu. Average temp is -5 degreed celcius. In the works is a two-stage cooler that should drop temps down to -50C. If you don't beleive me or are curious for more info, keep an eye on http://supercooler.synapticeffect.com for a soon-to-be uploaded website on overclocking and supercooling. WTF | :WTF: Suspicious | :suss: Roll eyes | :rolleyes: Wink | ;)
Used for: Programming, 3D Animation, Graphic Design, Gaming, TV/DVD's

Ok....sorry.....I had to get that out of my system. I don't brag about anything very often, but for some reason I needed to brag about something. This thread fit the bill. Roll eyes | :rolleyes:
