I played a lot of games and did a lot of software development on this desktop. I did one month of mining too. This lived in the rack in the basement of my West Fargo twinhome. I drilled holes in the floor/ceiling in order to run 3x massive dual-link DVI cables up to the living room, where I had my desk. The dual-link was necessary to feed the Dell U3011 monitor which I had in a PLP setup between two Dell 2007fwp? monitors. I still run that monitor setup as I type this in January 2024.
At some point in Medora, probably around 2016, I got rid of this CPU and motherboard and moved the graphics card into the slightly newer system that had previously been my server.
