That's a great system for 1,500 beans. All good stuff!

I need to order a Celeron-L and the drives and I can join in on the fun.

Please let me know what you think of Vista. Members here are split. I'm going to use the XP Pro x64 trial.

Good luck with the puter and Declan!

Nice rig. You did your hw my friend. I hope everything arrives okay.

thanks all.

can't wait to get it setup, OC it and report on how that GA-P35 does!

gonna be a HUGE step up from my 4/5+ year old $600 cyberpowerpc.com Athlon XP 2800+ A7N8 pc!

I've never spent so much on a PC!

That rig your building is going to make your old Athlon run and hide like a scared little girl.
