    Hi all,

    Been a few years since I built it so will try and remember everything that is in her:
    Case: Antec 900
    Mobo: Asus P5K-C
    CPU: Q6600 2.4GHz Quad Core (OC'd to 2.81GHz)
    RAM: 6Gb Corsair XMS2 DDR2 RAM
    GPU: nVidia GeForce 8800GT (OC'd to something but can't remember what :s)
    HDD: Little silver box (I really can't remember but it ain't all that good)
    Sound: Creative X-Fi something or another
    PSU: Corsair 800Watt Modular
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64

    And that just about covers it I think

    As I said, she's a couple of years old so not the best thing going but she serves me well and plays anything i've tried so far with no real bother

    Paul

    Yup, if it ain't broke don't fix it!!
    The only problem with that is that when you do come to upgrade your processor you find that your motherboard is two CPU sockets behind and you practically need a whole new rig...lol

    Yeah I had that problem but I tend to upgrade my motherboard more than I do my processor like now I'm using a S775 with DDR3 and that leaves a nice overhead for overclocking too.
