This was for making it through the first half of this year with at least a speck of sanity left...
I always love new puters... :)
Thanks for peeking at my new toy.

Wow that's going to motor!! Just got a new one myself and it's heaven. I got it assembled though I'm not that clever! Enjoy it

Congratulations on the new computer. may you have many happy renderings. WOW! with that system, any scene with less than 20 or so, V4,A4,G4,S4,M4,H4 characters will be a waste of computer power..... What are you going to do with your free time, Laura?

That monitor looks awesome to watch movies on, too;) Where does the Diamond thermal compound go? Does it protect the table Sophia sits on? And does all this come with a map of the world and blinking lights?:))

I have to laugh... her name is Sophia. You named your computer?? That's awesome. Love it. Great photos. Good luck on building her and getting her up and running!! Looks like a sweet piece of machinery. :)

Wow Laura...that is going to fly off the desk! I just built one, but nowhere near that kind of power. Hope you enjoy.

I can hear the angelic choir about now! What a rig - mine's already obsolete (not really, but compared to yours....)!! Congratulations and many happy (and decidedly shorter in duration) renders to you.

Nice!

Wow-WOW! I'm thinkin' Sophia will want some bling on her LIAN LI PC-P80 Black Aluminum for when she gets all fired up. ...giggle... Congrats!

Damn, now I want a new one. Best of luck, enjoy.

Great graphics rig. Your hard drives will give you 50-75Mbs. The new SSDs (Solid State Drives) are much faster. If you want one buy only one with the new sandforce 1200 controller; 275Mbs speeds for both read and write. Nothing like them on the planet! I need a new fast graphics computer, but I spent my money instead to move to Beaverton, the home of VUE. Landscaping all over town is amazing, like VUE itself. Send Poser gals my way. Poser-VUE is a great combination.(lol) Enjoy your new technology! Bill

Very cool! Nice to see someone else who thinks building these beasts from parts is great fun. Working on my second one in a month's time. I think I have processor envy. Hope this thing makes you giggle awhile, the first few times you use it.

This is why the rest of the world hates us! :-) I am so 'effing jealous!

What's wrong with giving the computer a name? Mine's Sarah Jane and her two hard drives are Athene and Ayesha. It all looks a lot more complicated than your average flat-pack; one you put together yourself, not like the usual self-assembly kit that just lies on th floor and refuses to assemble itself. And with all that kit just how much room is it going to take up!

Congratulations for you new computer......!!!!

Whoa mama!!!

Now that looks like a whole lot of fun! A computer's always got more heart and soul when you put her together yourself. And I love that you named her, too. I'm really looking forward to seeing that you can do with this new sports car of yours. ^_^

WOW ! Looks pretty good :)

Looks great!!!
