I think you mean "Rig".

It's pretty nice, I don't like the case very much though.
 
Thats really nice for a first build rig:) Mine looked worse then this, cables all over the place, but your pc is pretty nice:) GJ :)

thats cuz he doesn't even have a PSU in yet :)

not bad.....not a fan of the case as others have said, there are much better ones out there. Processor is a bit dated as well as Mobo but the GPU will do u fine.

Yeah I know is a bit dated, but just wanted to test the skills since is my first build, I didn't want to go big and mess something up, as far as the case is I wouldn't recommend it, but since I already bought it at least I'm gonna give it a try.
I'll Post pics once I finish it. :thumbup:
 
Have you gave overclocking her a shot? Should be able to squeeze some extra juice out of it.

I'm also in need of some serious cable re-management. Will do soon when i have an entire day to tear this thing down and clean it the hell out. Dust builds up quick , seems to attract it like hell.

Hey do you all just air-dust your fan's or completely remove them and wipe em down. I just removed every fan a couple months ago and its looking like its time for another . I just hate taking them out and putting them back in, most time consuming part.

I just have a compressed air tank with a nozzle to dust out my computer.

intel board, Overclocking=poop
 
Well back from the dead, I finished my project well actually it's been a week since I finished :P, today I just installed Windows 7 64.
I really feel proud that this is my first rig build and its working flawless, Ive been testing it for days such as different games like bbc2, cod world at war and such, multitasking and lots more and just wow, maybe is not the real thing but for me as first timer it is :) , now i'm working on getting fps numbers but my job has been a bitch these past weeks with the over time. :glare:

Oh and that case I really don't recommend it as stated before, unless you have really small hands....
