I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

got some new computer parts.

got some new computer parts.

Post by .saint » September 05, 2003

nothing special.. i was bored and i needed a new mouse so i pikced up one of the sony mice w/the memory stick slot on the back..

then i was looking around and came across a sweet surround system for the computer so i picked that up also... i love it. nothing extreme but enough for some awesome sounding mp3's and dvd's
.saint, the honda EK parts jdMuseum.
i hope i grow to be half the man my grandfather was.

hey you, dont dis us computer folk... I just bought a 4 channel 0-12v fan controller that goes into the cdrom bay. check this shit out :) Image Image voltage set to 8-12V (blue LED glow) Image voltage set to 0-7V (red LED glow)

ask fone, he's see my puter.. its an overclocked AMD 2100+. man I might not have the money for a JDM CTR civic whore, but my PC is my main moneypit, and its fucking crazy.

AMD 2100+ @ 2.4Ghz aircooled (via alpha pal8045 w/ 50cfm delta 80mm)
512MB of PC2700
Asus a7n8x Deluxe
-5.1 soundstorm audio with digital output
-dual network cards (for use with internet sharing)
-serial ATA controller (more about this in a second)
-kick ass performance/great stable overclocker

I've also got dual 80Gb 8mb cache maxtor ultra series drives using IDE>SATA converters to run in RAID 0 configuration. In newb terms, my PC loads xp in 5 seconds to the desktop, and preforms typically daily tasks at insane speeds. Also lets me play Midnight Club II @ 75fps @ 1024x768.

Okay I'll stop being a nerd :P just gotta say, I respect what everyone here is doing, and while I dont have a JDM CTR with a fucking crazy turbo setup, my computer could be comparable :D

haha have a good one.
