Extreme Measures: Only for the bold of mind! This admittedly won't be for everyone. This Category is specifically for those who stretch the boundaries of reason when it comes to how computers are built. I build extreme machines. And anyone else who does, is invited here!

I have my case for success!
I posted this earlier on another forum (http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1428264) where I'm tracking the progress of this somewhat exceptional build. For background, read the rest of my posts in Extreme Measures. That should fill you in on everything.

And they have returned an affirmative verdict in my case.

Ok. It's a bit over the top. But if you haven't figured that out about me so far, you haven't read enough of my musings. Being over the top is what I seem to be about. And the comment here, refers to the fact that I got notice today of my case having been shipped. And yes, even the case, or should I say especially the case, is over the top.

I wrote about it before in the post before this one. Shall we call it the...

Ok. So I have this knack for being over the top in anything that I do. And this definitely applies to how I build computers. When it comes to performance, I want the most that is physically attainable. Limits aren't acceptable here!
