Now you might be thinking "Only two case fans for an 825Mhz
system? Doesn't seem like Moto." The truth is that's all it needs and if you
don't believe me, this next photo should make you a believer.
The finished system is every bit as fast as Project 850. With
the GeForce DDR running at 150/200, LAN 825 is able to run Quake 3 at 48fps at
1600x1200x16 bit color. Here is the CPU benchmark from Systoft 99:
If you're interested is creating a LAN 825, here is the list of
main equipment I used:
LAN 825 can be easily put together for less than $1,000. I
didn't go with any fancy sound card or speaker systems because I use head phones
for LAN parties. Add in a nice 17" monitor and you got yourself one screaming
system.
Fast is never fast enough however. I think I will pick up a
Slot 1 P3-600E tomorrow and see if I can get 900Mhz out of it. Stay tuned.
