So, since there's some action here, I thought I just had to post a few pics of my current rig. I just got tired of seeing everything lying on top of my stereo rack, saw a Silverstone LC-03 for sale second hand, and my impulse shopping did the rest for me.
Just to disappoint you: the pics aren't that many, but they're of bad quality! Besides, I came to think of the whole "hey, let's take some pics" a bit too late. Anyways, here goes:
The wiring isn't exactly final, don't worry. But then again, I don't have any pics of the final wiring either.
"Oh, look, that moron is posting the same image again". No, it's not the same, it's just... Uuuh... Anyways, here's another one:
The case with everything except the lid. And the upper deck on my rack is missing too (duh).
The rack in its entirety (yeah, I gotta do some re-wiring asap). There's a preamp missing as well. Oyeah, I'll be picking up a pair of ELAC FS58 speakers tomorrow/wednesday as well.
What it looks like with the front lids down. And my radiator at the middle floor, along with some crap that'll get cleaned up "some day".
I guess I now officially have the most bad-ass HTPC at least on NH.com. Will be hard to beat denstore at .se, as he at least had SLI in his...
Anyways, specs (at least for now, probably something changed till next week):
Mobo: Asus P5W DH Deluxe
CPU: X6800 (ES)
RAM: Crucial PC6400 (D9GKX)
GFX: Sapphire HD2900XT 512MB
PSU: Zalman ZM600-HP
Case: Silverstone LC-03
Soundcard: M-Audio Delta Audiophile 192
Cooling: TT Bigwater 745 on CPU (works just fine actually... replaced the fans to Noctua NF-S12's though)
The stereo (as of today):
Yamaha M-50 Power Amp (2x150W @ 8Ohm, measured)
Some fancy Tara Labs bi-wire cables
Gale 3030 (to be replaced very soon)
The preamp, Yamaha C-50 is at a friend's place for change of pots, has been since the winter now.
There you have it. Wait a week for a water leak, and I'll be ruined. Again. _________________ Man, or woman, or both? Grandis spiritus, sanctus diavolos

That means probably tomorrow, or in the worst case on wednesday. _________________ Man, or woman, or both? Grandis spiritus, sanctus diavolos

Let's just say, I was too... But I really like Elac, and they were cheap as f*ck too. _________________ Man, or woman, or both? Grandis spiritus, sanctus diavolos

To add to the watercooling sensation: I've got a Maze 4 GPU heading in from elmor. So soon the graphics card will be quiet as well as well-cooled. _________________ Man, or woman, or both? Grandis spiritus, sanctus diavolos

Looking darn good
Maybe it's time to upgrade my speaker setup too? (looks at his 20 years old 12" crap-o-matic speakers)
My old ones are for sale. They're not expensive, but they're decent. Sure sounds better than your current ones (that is, if you can fit floor-standing speakers). _________________ Man, or woman, or both? Grandis spiritus, sanctus diavolos
Nah, I haven't got the space needed
In any case, my amplifier sucks bigtime. But hey, I gave 20SEK for it three years ago Damn I love flea markets. _________________ "I'm rubber, you are glue"
