*girlie squeals* hehe I haven't even opened the boxes yet!!
 
I love the stage where there all in box's, its like un wrapping loads of pressies :p
Check this for building instructions, was pretty good for me ! You should build it, its half the experience and helps you with problem solving in the future....oh and its fun untill you run into a snag :p
 
I am now going to open the big boxes eeek and nooo can't play games other than solitaire and at a push the sims :p can the card be replaced at later date should it be needed to?
 
Can be replaced easily, one of the easiest upgrades to the PC.

Make sure you don't leave everything out, imagine accidentally tripping and snapping that pretty screen.

btw, the antec's box also makes great cheap accomodation, currently renting mine out to a couple, they look a little swamped in it though ;)
 
Pics or STFU :p


I love getting loads of component boxes and going through all the accesories and stuff, its like christmas but at random times during the year :)

Good Luck with the build and dont forget.........

Screw the risers into the backplate on the case first before you put the motherboard on it!!!! :p

They look like long brass looking things :)
 
Haha, I'm just waiting for a housemate to come home with the rest of the bits for my PC, then im building mine too :D

bless! I had the lot coming in 2 shipments so was certain everything barring the motherboard would arrive today LOL but luckily both couriers came within an hour of each other! phew.
 
lol good luck with the build mate, its the most exciting part :P

you got some serious hardware there, make sure if your playin games tho u save up and buy a card worth more than your pc to play at 1920x1200 res. im using a 8800gts 640mb, id recommend it ;)

take your time as said in previous posts, i always find the motherboard manual to be my best friend, id highly recommend consulting it :D
