Let me know how it shapes up, yeh? I like the look of it for a possible back up / main mouse, it looks great value. and the thumb button looks well forward - where it should be. It looks comfortable, is it?

Yeah, so far nothing too negative to report, its comfy eneough. i like the feel of it, its made of that smooth rubbery plastic lots of things use now.

I think its possible to easily break the mouse wheel, but we shall see soon eneough.

Just installed server 2008 x86. I am stunned by how straight foward it is to get right to work with this OS. I heard it was like vista should have been, it seems there is certainly alot of things to like about it. Ill find something to complain about out it shortly though.

Recent MS server OSes do have that quality feel to them, you actually feel like you've been upgraded to a BM / Merc in the rental car stakes going from XP.

That cooler looks like a fecking beast, good job, good to see it reduced your temps so radically too.

godsdog · #15 07-07-2008, 00:38

It is a remarkable reduction actually.

We will see how good it is once i get some games and the xeon running this week. I didnt test it with any kind of load, it just idled at 79c, i thought that was hot eneough.

Heres some info with the Celeron and 4850 clocked to 750

Here are some shots with it mounted. You can see how the Dominator fan blocks using the top PCIe slot.

This may seem like a strange question......... but what's the Celeron like mate?

affiliate13 · #19 07-07-2008, 03:13

For all general stuff its fine, it hasnt been asked to do a lot, i havent done much with it other than installing the OSes and Apps.

Ebuyer reckon the Xeon will be here tomorrow so you can have the lil celly if you want it lol. it does 2.2Ghz on stock volts. i stopped playing with it earlier today after i grabbed a copy of server from the office.
