This is the gallery dedicated to my first water-cooled computer......
AKA- 'The Shrine'.
It rarely stays the same for more than a couple of weeks at a time, but in light of my recent conversion to water cooling, as well as some other new hardware, I believe I will be happy for a moment....
Doubt it. But anyways, here are the current system specs (as of June, 2001):
Processor:
- AMD (Ass-kickin') Athlon OEM 1.33ghz, 266 fsb AXIA stepping
- currently running at 1540 mhz @ 1.85 volts

Operating System:
- Windows 98 Second Edition (2K still doesn't like the Phillips Acoustic Edge, and Windows ME is a piece of horsecrap)
So, there you have it. The list goes on, but those specs are the cream of the system.
Come and check it out!.........
