Threed: i5 655k, 2x gtx260, dice
 
Q: i7 980x, gtx580, ln2
 
Diesel: i7 980x, 3x gtx470, chiller
i7 930, gtx460, dice (or air?)
[extra - i7 920, gtx260]
 
Awalleye: i7 980x, 2x 580s, water
i5 655k, 2x 460s, dice
[extra - 2x 450s] 

 
Nate (if you can):
 
Anyone else i will add in once you put up your info.
 
If you guys please could, post up what cpus, gpus, and cooling you have. Remember, you can bench multiple rigs. It will make getting 3 man teams for classes together much easier, and quicker. And we want to get assembled ASAP, to work out the kinks before official submitting begins.
 
As people post up their setup possibilities, i will be updating this post  to keep a good tally.

forum warz hardware list:
 
1. E760 w/ 980X and 3 gtx 470's (can bench these 1way 2way 3way) 6gig dominators gt 2000mhz.  All on chilled water but nothing insulated.  Cores have been around -7 with no danger of condensation.
 
2. UD3R w/920 or 930 (have both so whichever cpu is needed)
OCZ cas8 1600 (stuff actually oc's pretty good but can be swapped with dominators)
 
I have 1 koolance cpu ln2 pot.
 
cards: 1 gtx 460, 1 gtx 260, 2 9800 gts (I have no blocks for these), 3 gtx 470's w/koolance blocks
 
Hardware can be mixed and matched as needed, but thats what I can work with if you're needing a list of hardware for the warz.

Sweet. For now i will just put up combos of those, but also list the extra stuff below it. And since the gpus are just by # of gpu cores, definitely use the best gpus you can.

Once again guys please contact me via PM for links on where to post this stuff on 411.  We need one list from the two forums and that will be hosted at 411.  You will also need to register at TRP and I will provide you with that info as well.  MY goal is to have the teams sorted out by sunday the 16th.

Q?!  say it ain't so?!  booty.  You will be missed.  Congrats anyhow.  I don't see you leaving here any time soon.
 
Halo, in your dreams buddy, I still have the top 295 and I will breath new life into it when the time is right ;)
 
Since one on here has posted any pics in a while I will post some.
 

What you are seeing here is when I told my mill to move to the right over 5 inches.
 
Here is what the mill table actually moved:

That means I am within .0005".
That is Five TEN THOUSANDTHS of an inch.  Pretty accurate if you ask me.  Especially for waterblock production ;)
 
Here is when I told it to move towards me 7":

Again, .0005"
 
Now the up and down (Z axis)

 
Here is how I did the Z.  Clamped a DRO (digital read out, or caliper/depth gauge) and made the mill move up 7"

 
And an action shot mid drill.

I programmed the code, and was able to just sit and watch, occasionally pausing the sequence and cleaning off the drill bit.
 
The finished holes, and the MESS, that is now self contained!  Water cooling it is next ;)

I still have some improvements to make, but it is kinda operational.  Installing the watercooling tonight ;)
 
Yup you read it right- watercooling the mill (flood coolant)
