Brrrrrr....

please post some specs as soon as you can, cause i am thinking of upgrading my system to include a Core Duo processor, and i want to know how they perform, especially with one of those vapochill units in there! otherwise, 9/10(just cause of the vid card). just one question though: how loud are those vapochill units? Beautifully Done!

You should wait a little bit until DX10 comes out to get a new video card. Or you can get a 7600GT if ~$150 isn't too much for you, but it won't last too long. Nice rig though! Really neat, cables can barely be seen.

I wonder where the 1's are coming from. There is NO way this system is a one. This system is one of the cleanest builds I have seen and the wiring is top notch. Even if you don't like the case, the components or whatever someone can nitpick, the minimum on this is an eight. Personally voting a 9.

Hi there.

Great job. i like it.

The wiring is superb. Real nice components.

But i must say that when you leave things out it's obvious that end up
with less cables to hide.
But you did it so nice that when there are a few more cables to be hidden, it's no problem for you.

Until the new card 8. You got have something to look out for.

Very nice, the wires are nearly perfect. One critique on the zip ties, if you put $1k+ into the parts of this rig, $5 for some color coordinated zip ties shouldn't break the wallet. I'd at least nix the white ones, whatever color you like.

That VapoChill is wicked looking. If you did some UV sensitive mesh sleeving for the VapoChill tube, and a couple hidden UV lights, it would look wicked all over. I understand if that's not your thing too, great job! 7/10
