Very nice. I grabbed the 1000 Watt version for my HTPC build. I've been so busy that I haven't even loaded the OS on it yet. I'm going to see how the 80gig solid state drive works for a boot disk. Then, I've got a 1 TB WD Black Series and a 300 gig Velociraptor disk to play with along with the Quad core and 12gig of ram:   Ok, I am total geek immersed too, now I hate to crash the party , but how much does this system cost?? I does look awesome. I have always wanted to build one myself. Looks like a got a reference here now. ;D. Wow. I finally got mine (same case) delivered yesterdayand holy crap what a train wreck! I would have taken pics but I got it at work and took it to the ups (MOFOS!) depot because the box was mangled. The case is bent everywhere and I almost wept at the sight!!. i swear to god ups has it in for me. I filed a claim and of course ups says it's not their fault blah blah. So I went to the store and bought a coolermaster case to plunk things into until I get this all sorted out. urghhh dammit I hate ups lol it's always something. The company I got the good deal form in the states would not ship any other company so of course I was stuck. But it was a good deal and I can't pass up good deals  this is what I did about 20 mins ago : Gigabyte P45-UD3R, 4 gigs team extreme ddr 1066 ram, Q6600 G0 stepping, EVGA 260, WD black 1tb drive with 1 more on the way (puralator!!!) PC Power and cooling 750 watt ps, Ht omega claro (on it's way ) x-fi for now and an old lite-on ide drive until my pioneer blu-ray drive gets here. I'm not planning on doing cable cleanup because it won't be in the case for long (hopefully) My htpc is nothing like doingok's but he's just crazy   and where it sits until I get my non-F'd up case:  |

I apologize if they were a little dusty. I never wanted to wipe them to much so as to scratch them.

N8DOGG I know what you mean. I have to use the UPS Gorilla's for my shipping. But when I do, my packages are like Fort Knox. They have to be considering the Bulls in the China Shop mentality UPS has. Bummer about your case though. Goes to show even things made of steel, UPS can F^&k it up.

Look what followed me home from the St. Louis GTG...  Kind of funny that I purchased this since I couldn't even tell you the last time I listened to a CD. Long story short I impressed with the sound and decided to pick it up. |

I bought a hell of a lot of cedar mulch, plants and yard lighting.......I'm physically exhausted, sore and sunburned after fixing up the flowerbeds this weekend. It was 94+ degrees all weekend but I just had to get the yard squared away before Mom visits from California. The girlfriend and I have just about completed everything on the inside of the house we wanted done......now it's yard time. Before pics....so sad:  After pics....we have a little more to finish yet:   |

This guy.
You need to let us know when you're hosting a GTG.
...or on second thought, you may not.
We've seen some of this crowd. ;D ;D
Seriously though, nice work. Diggin the Japanese maples.
I have a pair of 25'-30' Cottonwoods I need to get rid of.
I was thinking this year. But now I'm thinking next year...or maybe one of those 50 degree winter days Colorado sometimes throws at us.
Or maybe next year. ;D

My friend works as a general manager for a local nursery distributer, let's just say I paid less than half of what it would have cost me in a garden store. $250 for ALL the plants in front of the house. Leaves more money for audio gear Thanks for the compliments fellas. |
