Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    I can personally vouch for this computer runs awesome, super quiet even when all graphics are maxed out and everything. Super quick.

    Computer was originally built about a year ago and was then rebuilt in July this year with all new (better) parts except for the CPU.

    Thanks for looking guys, Mac

      He originally built it about a year ago in an Apple G5 case but couldn't get enough cooling for it so then rebuilt it in this current case 6 months ago (I think) with better components and more fans haha... This really is an insane computer especially considering he doesn't use it that often, mainly for a few games and watching movies/TV shows when it's connected to his TV which is a lot of fun

        Talked to my friend today, he rebuilt the computer in July this year and the only carryover component was the CPU... So the computer is in perfect condition and will also add this info to the first post

            Definitely a good price the only reason he's selling it is so he can get a sound system for his car and to stop playing games as we're just starting year 12 now and we still got a MacBook Pro to use

              Looks like a great rig mate. Maybe post up a youtube video of it running some PCMark or 3dMark tests?
