If they've got the Spitty stick and throttle I'm getting it. How awesome does the 109 stick and throttle look.
Thanks.

Only 4000 GBP for the whole set. But you can buy modules separately.

£1550.00 for the Spitsim Control Column, with adjustable hydraulic pitch & roll dampers

Ah, I didn't realize they were making high voltage friendly RAM again. Been a little out of the loop recently, last I was aware all you needed was good airflow after they stopped with the old BH5 ICs, lol.

Small update... still waiting on a whole bunch of things but I have started on the sleeving.... Massive job.
This is the main piece of work though here!
Man what a head spin!!:confused::confused::confused:
At least the worst part of tracing them is done!

And another side project to keep me gaming with decent FPS while I finish the main system build.

Dont know if any of you have seen these before.
I've been researching this before and its now become a much simpler process.

Its an external express card to PCIE adapter.

Designed for engineer testing of PCIE devices.
Im going to use it for gaming on my VAIO Z128 laptop with an external GTX580! ;) How cool is that!
The integrated GT330M just isnt cutting it for some of the stuff I want to play, and when I go away for the weekend to our family holiday house I can just pack the Lappy, adaptor, Powersuppply and I can play all my games at 60FPS+ ;)

Here's an example pretty much of the setup as i will have it too. He has the exact same lappy as me known as a Z117 in other countries.

With the Nvidia Optimus driver you get compression and upto 70% of the performance of a full 16x PCIE slot.

Nvidia are currently developing (and probably ATI too, though not confirmed) external GPU for thunderbolt port which is electrically equivalent of a PCIE 2.0 x4. These will come out on next gen PC's and laptops. Sony have already released their version for their laptops.

I've made some progress and now completed this beast of a cable..

It has the runs sleeved for the other PSU power-on and the Aquaero 5 XT relay. (the long curled up cables)

There were lots of 2-way, 3-way and even 4-way cables.. What a headache!!!!

At least it's all down hill from here, the PCIE's will be a piece of cake after this beastly cable!

I felt a little guilty for ordering a 79€ Samsung SSD today considering we will have a little one joining us very soon but after seeing your new rig I feel much better about it. Thanks Phat! :grin:

Hi Guys!

Back from holidays today and my performance pcs shipment has finally miraculously appeared and my replacement motherboard is back.

Cant wait to ditch the bosch staples for the sunbeam PSU mod tool kit! ;)
Aquacomputer also confirmed my blocks are finally on the way! :D :D

I might get a RevoDrive 3 X2 240GB SSD next week depending on when my Vertex2 SSD RMA's get back. OCZ have confirmed they are replacing them! :thumbup:


Tools of the sleeving trade! ;)

https://blufiles.storage.live.com/y1...Y/IMG_2277.JPG


The new sunbeam PSU modding tools above in the tool kit makes life sooo much easier compared to the bosch type 53 11.4mm staples!!

The long lost Performance PCs shipment!

A lifetime supply of MX4, thermal pads, 14 indigo extreme applications and 4 radiator shrouds.

You are one extremely sick puppy, Phat.

I like it :D

I was reading up on aircraft system bundling and wiring at work the other day... all I can say is rather you than me LOL.

Nice looking build have been following this with some interest, hope it goes smoothly.
