very good erocker very good :toast: hows the performance?

Using HD Tune (or was it HD Tach?) It averages 134mbps. It's a really nice SSD for the price, though it looks like they upped the price on them a bit. I've seen them for 89.99 at newegg before...

The GTZ should be plenty sufficient for your CPU, I dont see the heatkiller improving much at all. Have you reinstalled it and all that?

Looking at some of the rigs in this thread , it feels like i am in some sort of science class or something. You got tubes going into your tower, or coming out of it, and from what it looks like, blocks of ice in your tower. I can see now, you guys are very serious about computers. No wonder i catch alot of heat haha. You have to keep in mind, i didn't even know what a video card was until late 2005

Amazing to look at tho and lovely cases. :)

looking good Ill bet that ssd peped up the boot times a bit :)

It does, mostly post windows logo. Things like the virus scanner and anything else associated with startup, start instantly! What I like is that things like web pages load much faster (instant), and things like saving loading games is much quicker! Best of all no noise. :)

ok here you guys, the pics I promised.

Basically slightly better cable managment towards the bottom of the case, still needs work though. mounted 140mm fan pushing air towards the video cards, high flow 120mm in the front, keeps HDD much cooler. and put another 120mm in the drive bay as intake :D the 24 pin psu cable is now also routed behind the res :toast:
Very nice D :respect:
