Full Name: Darin J. Miller Gaming Handle: DMILLER79 Location: Barberton, Ohio
Darin Miller, has been working on this machine for 6 months. It seems every time he was close to finishing, something new and improved would come out. He went through several different Processors, memory, motherboards, and even cases. You see, Darin is currently taking Electrical and Mechanical Engineering in college. In his words: "It became an addiction and now the words "fast enough frames per second" and "cool enough" are no longer in my vocabulary when it comes to computers."
How many people can boast over 500 CFM of efficient airflow inside their case, not to mention the Danger Den watercooling setup. With that much cooling Darin was able to pull 11451 on 3DMark06 in 1280x1024. The only complaint so far is that the Rig is rather heavy with all that equipment inside, it's a good thing the case has wheels for when he goes to Lan Parties.
Congratulations Darin, Your Rig is Super Cool!!!
