Building my Gaming PC (finally)

OK, ladies, that's enough. If you want to discuss GLG's inflated ego and terribly flawed personality, then I'll split off the relevant posts and move them to somewhere more suitable.

SSD - I'm sorely tempted to buy one for my OS and programs. It would replace one of my older drives and give me a spare 250gb for more storage. Before that, though, I want more RAM and a new PSU.

How long before you think you can do your build, SYG?

Tomorrow (Saturday) I will be getting the sound card dvd/blueray keyboard/mouse and the case. I leave for vacation to California on Monday and won't be back until July 5th. The monitor and the SSD I ordered and they wouldn't ship the SSD to my address in Germany so I had it sent to my parents in California so I can pick it up during vacation. I would say the system will be finished on July 6th or 7th.

Ok yesterday I picked up:


It does HD-DVD, Blue-Ray, DVD, CD and LightScribe.

Also got a case and a keyboardmouse. No soundcard yet.

The problem I see with the sound card is, I am not sure if there will be enough room. The two video cards have huge fans on them and I could barely fit the wireless adapter into the PCI space below the second video card. It is going to be tight, I think I will take the sound card out of this computer I am using now to check and see if it fits.



And a wireless net adapter.


I couldn't find a picture of the case on the net, so when I finish building my system I'll post pictures of everything before and after its built. And of course a *short* video of the power on to windows loaded process.

So I heard you finished building it.

Heard or read?

Get your senses in order fool..
Where's the pictures?

Soon. I need to borrow a camera so I can take the pics and take a video of the power on so I can rub it in GLG's face. Expect them fridayish.
