Ok let's organise official Il-2: Cliffs of Dover overnight parties at Phat's home once the game is out

It's a monster, I think I its very noisy

LOL @ uebernerd .... (ok, indeed, it's just jealousy that's speaking)...

Simple question : How much ?

A pic of the chair pl0x! No chair no e-peen.

Nice setup - but question for you...How did you get IL2 to span 3 monitors? I have a very similar setup, i920 o/c'd to 3.8G or so, with 12G RAM and dual 450 in SLI mode, as well as 3 25" HD monitors that I can use. I only get IL2 to play on one monitor atm, though. I would very much like to know how you get IL2 to span across 3 monitors.

thanks!

I'd pop round his house and nick it, only it looks like I'd require some sort of forklift truck.

I definitely think I'd sit straddling the beast though, letting all those fans work their wonders upon my nether regions. If they're intakes, as I imagine they are, then that would perhaps offset the sperm count loss derived from sitting at a desk playing video games all evening, roasting one's bollocks.

MY God! I think I've just had a business idea

hi FS phat
a question how is the watt usage compared from a more normal pc? percentage ?
just to know. thanks in advance

what are the 3 things with numbers in up right?
temperature test?
BTW i like it with the case and teh lights

And he doesn't seem to care for the power bill anyway.

Did you ever think of ripping of the plastic bezels of your monitors?

You may end up like:
Samsung MD230X3

For example: If you buy a 3x Asus VH242H
and rip of the bezel , you will end up with 0.5 cm bezel per monitor:

Thats more then half the price of the samsung MD230x3

Actually not noisy at all, the power supply fan is noisier than anything else when the system is under load. The fans are rated at 19dba at about 800rpm at system idle and i have them set to increase rpm to about 1200 rpm when the water temp gets above 30c. Even then they are way quieter than a 5970 & 2 5870s screaming their tits off with stock fans.

Over 12k

It's using ati eyefinity, Nvidia have something similar called 3d surround I believe.
Power consumption is right on the limit of the power supply, about 1200w.
The numbers on the displays are all fan speeds, they are linked to a temp sensor as well and automatically adjust fan speed with rise in temp.

No too ugly and when your flying you quickly forget about the bezels, they just become part of the virtual cockpit frame I guess and they don't bother me at all.
