My newish computer build. Pictures included. - Splodge0007 - 03-21-2011
I've had a midi tower for quite awhile. It was a cheap temporary one until I could afford something a little bit more suitable for my needs. Without further ado, my new setup :
As you can tell. My cooler is freakin huge (Coolermaster V6 GT)

ATI XFX 6970 (Will have by the end of next week)
Sandybridge mobo
Sandybridge i7
*Note, I'm not actually sure if this is the right section. I just thought I'd like to post it to get your views on my build though.

This is the right section. The built looks pretty epic, but I'm proud to be beating you in at least one area (temporarily anyways). I have a new ATI Sapphire 6850. The case looks awesome and kinda reminds me of Alienware. How much was it?

I love that case soo much.

The stretched headphones over your case in the last picture almost made me cry.
Taking a closer look at the case, it reminds me of a helmet from Dead Space 2, lol.

Right...It looks so professional. It looks perfect, like it doesn't collect a single spec of dust. Not to mention it is huge and has a crap-ton of room in it.

You know, I never thought of that. Now that you mention it. There is quite the resemblance. I also thought that my cases ears might be getting cold? >_<

Nice work there. How long did it take you to build?

And why didn't you go 16 GB RAM?

Great build!The case looks like a spaceship server
! But I would prefer an AMD CPU. They are cheaper and at the same GHz as most Intel's do.
