Re: Computer Specs
Its really hard to measure because I made quite a few small upgrades and cooling tweaks over time.
The most recent upgrade was the 5970 and liquid cooling.
which was $650 for the 5970 and $98 for the liquid cooling ($78 for the liquid cooler and $20 for better fans)
Surprisingly most of the parts I was actually able to procure by winning online drawings related to the distributed computing project: Folding@Home
I got the case, power supply, some of the RAM, fans, and processor for free.
But I believe my best guesstimated total of money that I have put into that machine is: approximately $1100
There is approximately $150 or so of parts included in that that I upgraded that are not in the machine
also it is important to note that $700 out of the 1.1k was all from my most recent upgrade.
