    Default My father-in-laws PC

    Alright, time to show off...actually I`m dead jealous.

    As some of you can remember I posted a while back about building a quad-core PC for my pop-in-law. I was told by you lot that the PSU wasnt up to it, so after various faults we have fitted a 1000w PSU.

    Oh, its a 768mg 8800GTX

    While it was on the bench at work I grabbed a few pics too:

    Spoiler:


















    Its a nice PC...I`m actually kinda jealous. Final build cost £1425, inc. 22" widescreen tft. Profit to the company: £30

    Heres the original thread: http://www.digital-forums.com/showth...highlight=quad

    Personally I would replace the stock intel fan with a 3rd party one. With a 1 kilowatt PSU fitted, the dial on the electric meter should do the job!!!!!!

    The boss spec`d it all and I think he wants to preserve the £30 profit after he shelled out £90 on the second PSU

    Hey, when`d you get demodded?

    Blimey... I haven't been a mod for ages (0 / 10 for observation)

    I actually resigned... got fed up of giving topless hand shandy's to the hierarchy
