Calling all GEEKS :P

[Tynan Rasmus]

or at least thats what I get called for my love of technology. Is there any other geeks (tech freaks) here?

Just thought I would share some pics of my latest build, the pc I am typing this on right now.

AMD ATHLON 4200 X2 Fanless system. Yes, I hate computer noise! there are no fans running in this system currently.









Please share if you have any pics of your own beast!

Oh, and also, what are some of your interests in the newer tech toys of today? such as LCD vs. plasma, Apple's new iPhone, and other such gadgets.

I love your computer case! I am a bit of a tech geek my self. I can't live without my Nokia E62 PDA Phone. I can browse the net with full html pages and broadband internet speed. I love it!

cool! I love the fact that your nokia has a full keyboard, great for sending txts, which I do alot of. I just got my sony K790. Had to get it for the 3.2MP camera it has built in, and as far as the cell phone part is concerned, it works pretty **** well. I don't really care for the MP3 player portion of phones these days as I have my iPod nano, which I love.

what is your average temperature?

I am preparing for my next system. just spent $85 on my powersupply, antec 430w trio. it will vary the fan speed depending on the temperature to keep the noise low. the fan is also in the bottom of the power supply so it is much larger which means it works a lot less to cool things down... now i need to get the rest of the stuff

Nice looking PC

That pretty cool. I hadn't heard of fanless systems before but sounds like a good idea if it works. No noise and no making your PC into a dust collection system. It will be interesting to see how well they work. I guess the last thing would be getting rid of spinning drives to make it completely silent uh? All NVRam.

My CPU is currently at 40 C and my case at 44.3 C. I had an enermax, and a Top Power power supply like the one you described, they are pretty quiet.... but the one I have right now has no fan, so its even quieter :P

SanDisk just released thier first Flash based Hard Drive. Its a laptop drive and its 32G. You will see desktop hard drives with no spinning discs veeery soon and I will be right on top of them! heh. ... and your right, my system has been up for 4 or 5 months running 24/7 and I still see no dust inside.
