Q6600 on a Asus Striker II Formula with a HD3870X2 card.
Swipe for pictures of the hardware.

Cool! Your picture reminded me of when I was playing this game many years ago and my PC’s power supply quit. The computer shut off and wouldn’t restart. Oddly enough it happened when I was leaving the battleship. The battleship blew up with a loud explosion and that’s when the power supply quit. Everything went dark. I did get another power supply.

Talk about a perfect timing!

I have a 3870x2 I’m planning to bring as part of a display computer running Crysis at VCF West this year. Good to see another one in use!

Thanks, you reminded me I should put my AOC 7K+ and HP Ultra VGA 1280 to work. They've been sitting dormant for some time. (both serviced circa Feb.-March this year)

Give the nuclear missile bomb to us, leader enemy boss, and then put your hands up.

Only thing missing is the tape mod to OC the Q6600 by a whole 1GHz

What is that case?

Ah, I had those speakers too. Best tiny speakers I've ever used!

They sound surprisingly good and have a great timeless aesthetic

What the fuck?
This is a masterpiece.
It belongs in a museum!

Appreciate that!

I had that motherboard back in the day in my second PC. I ran an E8600 and two 8800GTs in SLI. Wasn't the best overclocker though. I much preferred the Asus Rampage formula that I had in my main PC.
Veddermandenis@reddit (OP)
The Rampage Formula was hands down one of the best 775 boards. I also have another build with a Striker II Extreme and a Q9550 and another with a P5E and a Q9650. The Q6600 was the most "correct" cpu I had at hand for this build.

That water cooled X2 is pretty cool!

I actually had two HD3870 cards in Crossfire back in the day but bought them with several months of distance. I could only dream with one of these watercooled beasts back then.

You brought me back to 2007.

Mission accomplished then, I would say
