Should be ready by end of April. :woot: I haven't even thought about overclocking this yet! But if and when I do, I'll be putting watercooling in. I'll be adding some Behringer monitors for sound as well. This will be my main studio/gaming PC.

whoar! looks like one beast!

and that monitor!..24"! :upset: << envious mode

Move this thread to Computer Stuff! :lol: (j/k). Nice one, looks neat, congrats!. I bought a new mouse this afternoon, :P The scroll wheel on the old one went kapput.

Nice!!!!!!!!!!! Plug that in and watch your lights dim!! Still no word from the repair people on mine. What ya doin with the old one Jim?:lol: (j/k)

I'm putting it in my daughter's room so she can use it for homework and games and stuff. Actually, she's getting my old desktop which is an old XP Machine with 1.6Ghz from about 6 years ago...still, it has 1.5 GB of RAM in it, and a 19" flat screen.

Most of my work at the moment is done on a Dell Inspiron 6000 1.86 Ghz laptop with a 1GB RAM. This does the music job fairly nicely but I always wanted something for the next generation of games. This should do it! Thanks for taking a look!

Havent chosen mouse or keyboard for this yet. Keyboard needs to be silver, I'm not that bothered about wireless, my first wireless mouse was too slow for gaming. But that was 4 years ago...they may have improved.

:jawdrop: :boobies:

looks awesome, hopefully satellites will not be falling from the sky when you get that beast running:lol:

Looks like a building , one built by the guy that knocked up the Lloyds bank . But this is more exciting by miles .:)

I'd fuck it.

:toothless:

Just got a call...this will be ready in 10 days. I've also ordered the Logitech G11 keyboard and the Razer Death Adder mouse.

Damn that looks a nice comp, the spec list is very impressive too (i have no idea what any of it means these days, but still looks impressive :lol: ), big congrats on the purchase, hopefully it will serve you well :)

Nice setup. We have pretty similar rigs. Enjoy. Oh, and I bought that mouse pictured for gaming. It works very well.

Thanks Sting. I admit I had been enviably eyeing all the posts where you talked about your set up and performance. I decided there was no point sitting there feeling sorry for myself. Had to push the boat out!

Call of Duty 4 has duly been ordered. I have CS and Half Life already.
