(retired) - Multiboxing in World of Warcraft and Beyond!

As per Tim's advice, it would be nice to start a new rig thread that isn't so cluttered.

So here goes.

My last post showed me using 3 monitors. I have since gone down to 2 because I am no longer running 2 video cards. They were mismatched and useless. I have since upgraded to a Nvidia GTX 460. Overclocked of course lol.

First off lets start with me goofing off with pwnboxer.

Just decided to see what she would do with 10 clients running. Didn't do too bad at all. All windows were smooth but I expect it would have lagged slightly if they were all in game. And yes before you ask, I do not have a smoking problem. I pretty much have it figured out lol.

Now on to the show!

Just a subtle glow.

I had removed the shroud from the card because I have a side fan and it actually helped out with temps alot. Also I removed the heatsink and used some quality thermal paste. This helped aswell. Under full load with something gpu intensive like Folding@Home cuda edition I never go above 120F. Ambient temp in room is 74F.

For storage we have a Seagate Barricuda 320gb for the system drive and 2 striped WD Caviar 1Tb drives. Black edition of course.

All of this is wrapped up in a nice Antec 900.

Here is a SS of technical data if you want it.

It is amazing what overclocking will do for an out of date system.

Now lets see your rigs!

Hey there, a suggestion, instead of linking to a website that has your pictures, upload your pictures to fit the size of this website and then just link to the pictures directly in the thread, that way we dont have to keep on visiting another website to view them.

Sad face

Going to another website to view images really sort of defeats a thread to show off images of your pc. I guess I'll start a new thread for people to put images of their system since that'd be awesome.
