Well its finally done. I spent alot of time working on it to get it done. There’s still a few things i need to fix but if you can’t tell from the second video, then I’m not going to tell you. Here is what the system ended up being.
Here is a list of parts that i salvaged from my old Dell Dimension E520.
CPU- Intel Duo Core 2.13 Ghz Overclocked to 2.5
Philips DVD Burner
Nvidia 7300LE Video Card
Parts I Bought New from Newegg.com:
Asus P5K PRO Motherboard
Xion II w/450w PS
Thermaltake Blue Orb II CPU Heat Sink
320GB Seagate Barracuda HD
4 GB Crucial Ballistix Tracer Ram
2- 120mm intake and exhaust fan, 1- 80mm intake fan
Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Sound Card
Parts I got from a friend to Finish it off:
2 Blue cold cathode tube neons
Now that its done I really want to build another one. I’m in the process of looking at parts and doing some research. I plan to build a smaller system for just normal everyday use. E-mail and internet pretty much. And a Larger system for a dedicated Gaming rig. Just looking at parts right now, hopefully soon i will have time to do another.
