The installation went pretty well. Only issue starting the system was a chassis intrusion alarm. The video card barely clears the drive cage (1mm) lol. that card is massive.

It is running cool, idle 23c. That Zalman 9700 is gigantic, it provides excellent cooling. I am hoping to pull 3.7GHz on air once I have everything up & running.

The BIOS has so many config options it's insane... Going to take me a week to tweak it lol...

I don't know what I am going to do with all this space, either. 1.3 Terabytes total storage.


And, no I am not leaving NBF, I have 2 other 1710's & I would never leave NBF anyways, I love it here, it's my home! I am planning on bringing more attention to the desktop section that has been tucked away in the off-topic section like a red-headed step child...

yeah still looking, but really just working on geting this rig up & operational first. Then I will probably look into it. If I do I will be putting this 32" on the market


The vid card is stock Oc'ed to 660/2.3GHZ, which is pretty impressive. Going to try & get it up to 700, though

Thats insanely beastly lol. Especially considering how cramped the case looks, those temps are nice and low. Also, I'm looking forward to the attention in desktops ^_^ I'm probably going to have the P5K board as welll, so keep on the updates of how good it is

lol the case is really big, it's just the Zalman 9700 & the 8800 that makes it look small... I cannot tell you how massive that HS is

When i installed the 2 water colling blocks on my 8800GTS it actually game me some room back in the case, But I was finding the same thing, I bought the ThermalTake Armour Full size case, and it looks small when you have 2 x 8800GTS cards installed, along with the cooling, but the Temps are extremely stable with the Bigwater System going.
