shiny goodies!!!
The Silverstone case next to my ATCS840.
The all black interior, even the supplied screws and standoffs are black.
Motherboard, a very nice product with lots of room.
CPU goes in.
The stock Athlon II X4 630 heatsink vs Phenom II X4 955be heatsink.
Ram and heatsink go in.
Corsair PSU comes in a very nice bag!!! my high end Antec for my own pc didn't!!!
So those two parts now go in.
OH NO!!! cable mess!!!
Before I even attempt to tidy the cables, its time to see if it lives.
Thankfully my PC building skills are as good as ever, and it powers up just fine, Install Win7 and apart from now sorting the mess inside. its done.
The spec of the system is as follows.
