PDXLAN 18 Winning Raffle PC! Reply with quote
Hey everybody! So during the Raffle at the end of PDXLAN 18, my little brother happened to be the winner of the 'big prize'. He won everything he needed for a new PC except a CPU, PSU and DVD Rom drive. Well, he bought those things, and here's our photos of us building it!

Here are the specs.

Cooler Master Storm Enforcer Case
MSI P67A Mother Board
Intel Core i5 3.3ghz
Radeon 6850
Crucial 4 gig Balistics RAM
ASUS DVD Rom
Zalman CPU cooler
Raidmax 700w PSU
Kingston 96gig SSD
Samsung 1TB HDD



Here are some photos! Enjoy!

















Ahhhhh soo many cords!









And there you have it!

Thanks to Vector, Demented, and everybody else who made this LAN possible, and so god damned awesome! This was the first PDXLAN we have been to (excluding the Showdown LANFESTS in San Jose), and it won't be the last, that's for sure!

Just noticed a potential "issue". You might want to reverse that top fan to be an exhaust since the cpu coolers fan is going to be fighting it otherwise.

Good Job guys!!! Congrats on that win. And what the other guy said. The fan on top should be for exhaust if it isn't already...

I still haven't put together the computer I won yet. I worked 12 days in a row about 10-12 hours a day since I got home from the LAN. Me and my 11 year old son are going to be putting it together here soon. Probably next weekend. I'm going to let him do most of the work so he learns how to build a computer. I've thought of some good modding ideas for that Thermaltake level 10 GT case I won. I've already torn it apart trying to fit a 120.2 rad in it.
