Andrew, unfrotunately no I can't get you a key :D I was one of the first 2000 to activate my beta key when Kane's Wrath was released, hence how I got in. You are welcome to come round for a gander if you wish... Might even be able to hook you up with my key for you to play, so long as you aren't on when I want to get on :worship:

Managed to become part of the Red Alert 3 beta for anyone who cares. Pretty fun and the whole naval base building adds a whole new twist to things, pretty good so far IMO

Nice setup apart from the PSU.

Corsair or Seasonic PSU. They are the same thing.

The 640AAKS is a very quick drive. :blink:

Hmm went and bought it all on Saturday along with a 21.6 inch samsung monitor.

Awesome setup love it.

Also decided to get two of the hdd and am running them in RAID0 muhhaahaha so fast.

On the case of the power supply it is modular, and it seems to have more than enough juice for everything so far.

Crysis at 1650x1080 everything set to "High" and i get a constant framerate of 45-50.

^^^ That's an awesome rig you've put together, it's near identical to mine :)

GA-EP45-DS3R

Intel C2D E8400

Seagate 7200.11 500GB+750GB

OCZ Platinum 8500 (1066Mhz) 4GB

Seasonic S12+ 650W PSU

Nvidia GB 8800GS -> soon to be HD4870 of some sort

im running this on my desktop... got a couple others about but this one is slightly moar interesting

GA-M56S-S3

AMD X2 6000+

Kingston 1G 800 (four of em)

Gigabyte 8800gt (512)

WD 1TB 7200 (got three of em)

WD Raptor 150G (bootdrive)

Antec Neo Power 550W

also have two LG W2252TQ's (22" widescreen 2ms)

gonna get better ram next

any suggestions?

Sticking with the stock frequencies for your mobo - kralster's Corsair TWIN2x4096-6400C5 PRO 4GB would be an obvious choice or OCZ Platinum-PC2 6400 4GB (2x2GB). Also, both should have reasonable potential if you plan to OC.

cheers, i'm leaning towards corsair... probably not gonna OC it, just gonna leave it stock and stable

hey everyone, im going to upgrade my ram in the next couple of days and im after some advice. currently it has 2 512MB PC3200 sticks in it. im debating whether or not to just put another 2 in there to get 2 gig of total RAM or swap them all out for single 1gig sticks so i have a total of 4 gig of RAM.

now my FSB is 800Mhz so what are the advantages of upgrading to a higher speed ram as well?

    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers 
    • The axels in my R33 seem tired, and have a bit of play in them. I cannot find any new of course, not interested in buying used, but I am looking to see if anyone can identify some cross compatible axles. In the states I have seen suggested for S chassis the J30 axles, however for the skyline (as best I can tell) the lengths are about an inch off (2.5cm) on both sides. R33 my measure L 22" R 24.5" GPT L 22.5" 24.25" J30 L 23.5" 25.5"  so shaft length is probably an inch wider. Not sure if someone has another still remanufactured option besides the J30. I figured worst case I can buy a pair tear them down and swap the center shaft. My other option was reaching out to GSP to see if they cannot piece together a set, since the axle stubs are still manufactured, I wouldn't think it be that hard to find a shaft or make a shaft work.
