Well I'd like to thank Moe for helping me with this...I put together my first computer on Thursday and it worked out great. What it consists of:

Here are a few pics:

I've still got to clean up the wiring a little bit (waiting for 2 more fans to come in). The case comes stock with an 80mm fan on the back and an 80mm fan on the top. Also has slots for 2 80mm fans on the front. I'm adding the 2 fans in the front, and swapping the rear fan for a 120mm. I also added 4 small blue LED lights to the case to brighten it up a bit.

So far I've been running the comp for 2 days and I've been overclocking it 5% and I've had no problems whatsoever. It runs very smooth- I have no complaints thus far.

P.S.- Don't mind the mess, I'm changing everything around in my room...

Well I really didn't want to spend too much. $700 was really my cap and I went over that.

And I'm not really a heavy gamer- I just started playing CS again...

Luckily they are probably still good.

i thought you got the regular 6600, but that GT is an even better card //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Go buy some games now
