Here is my rig...

[Azure]

In my head at least, I am deferring the graphics as best performance per money whilst being able to power the monitor at res whilst looking for DX10 architecture cards to mature.

I have the thermaltake armour case in mind but scan don't sell them so...

Looking good, shocked at HDD prices now-a-days, really need to get another one for my MCE machine and was expecting to be paying

Here's somebody with 2 thumbs who doesnt care!

*holds up both hands with thumbs up*

Edit: Only messin man, looks like a sweet set up you're getting there. Hey, does anybody know if you can get IDE (ATA) cables but like, longer than the standard size? Because my new computer case is huge so they dont strech across :(. If anybody can point me in the right direction they will be rewarded!

no you cant, they only work over a certain distance, and if you have a 80's case, ur screwed, lol

anyway, nice rig, the one im planning is sorta similar, except i have bigger HDD's etc, goin for two 250Gig in RAID

SWEAT ***** SWEAT.

I will be adding another identical HDD for RAID 0 fairly soon and moving the OS onto a 10,000rpm 36gig HDD for safety of my data and speed.

I just ordered it all anyway but swapped the GPU for a x1950 pro as it had 36 pipes and faster memory for like
