just under 2000- canadain. we have to do a couple exchanges still though. the guy at the counter was a complete idiot. asked for a 2x1gb kit for the ram when we got home we noticed it was a freakin 1gig dual channel kit!!!!! 2x512mb!!! so he is running on a couple gigs of my mushkin goodness untill we get back to the store or what not.

nice rig

PS : now that your sober, you can maybe tidy up those cables now :grin:

[Frag Maniac]

Nice, but I agree, the cables need some work.

What model of Samsung is that btw? I've been considering an HDTV for a display on my next build. I'm hoping Samsung will eventually make a 1080p 32".

[blazedryan]

yea the cables definetly need work!

i cant remember what model my monitor is, i got it as a backup a year and a bit ago while i was waiting for a new lamp to arrive for my sony grand wega tv, once that was fixed my slim 21 inch sony monitor was sold and this one was hooked up, works like a charm ever since.

[tyle6]

LOL yea those cables are freakin everywhere right now!!! he has order a new fan controller and some 3 pin fans instead of all the molex B.S. i think tonight he is gonna swing by and we are gonna straitin some cables up and put a mild OC into her. need to get those fans!!! hes got a vantec tornado on the way for exhaust!!

[blazedryan]

the wiring has been somewhat cleaned up, ill post some pics in the next few days. still waiting on some more parts, had some troubles buying from ncix for some reason... gotta wait a little bit longer now

[raidersforever01]

I am a freak for wires, now i just want to go over and clean it up for you. I got a drawer full of zip ties every computer i build whether it has a case window or not i have to have clean and neat wiring.

[westy87]

Ye when I built mine the wires were everywhere but after a few months of seeing how others hide wires and make it neater there are only a few visible wires in my case. Although that might be a different story when I throw in 4 320 hdd's :(
