I don't see a price tag on there, J.  How much did your package deal cost and from where did you get the parts?   :woof:

Man, looking good big time. I love that graphics card. I would have wet with BFG though. Lol.

Such a good price for that system. Beautiful.

Wow, seriously nice computer! Love the retractable cover.

Noticed the dual chassis fans, plus there's got to be one on the main, and perhaps one on the gpu. So, how is it for noise?

I've got 2 computers I play Halo on; the newer one has got a couple of fans as well and I'm annoyed by the steady whine ('course it doesn't take much to annoy me). The older computer needs replacing, so I'm looking for something fast, but quiet too.

Boot.

All the parts came in today. I started to get to work on it. I probably have about 75% done. I put the processor with its heatsink and fan. the video card, the ram, the power supply, the hdd, and the DVD drive all into the computer, but then came the wiring and I just gave up there...

I'm taking it to a professional soon.

Nice machine. I will say though I bought the same Mobo in March and it was there customer choice of the month or something. It seems to have died on me about 2months later. I am no PC wizard so took me a while to figure it out. Newegg is doing an RMA on it for me right now and hope to get a replacement soon. I see I am not the first one that has trouble with it either. They have sold a ton of them so hopefully I only got one of the few bad ones. When it did work it was great though. We got the same HDD and DVD burner too lol. I got a x1950pro vid card and a slightly slower AMD processor on my system though.
