You should hook him up with a nice 400mhz OC on that thing. The AC Pro can handle it :p

Good build for the price, but still a 5/10

5/10? May I ask why such a low score? Anything to improve upon?

Oh, and he changed his mind and wants Windows XP, so I'll really overclock the system (for some reason Ubuntu 7.10 won't even boot at 2.7, whilst Server 2003 was rock stable at the same speed...)

Aside from any actual mods, no. It is what it is. You did a good job on the cables for sure, but its still a weak box by todays standards, and there's no other mods besides being clean and sharp. 5 is a Good rating. I think it's a fair setup with good cables.
