Hi All,
Just getting back up to speed on stuff after not building anything too serious in a long time, and realised I'd never joined the forums. Better late than never, eh!
Been wanting a new full build for years but it can be hard to justify the cost when the current one is still coping fine with pretty much anything thrown at it, with the occasional GPU upgrade.
After building an ITX machine on a moderate budget a while back and it outperforming the main PC an update was clearly on the cards though, and it'll finally be getting started in the next week or so
Current Build:
CM HAF 922
i7 920 @ 4.0GHz
Asus Rampage II Exteme
3x2GB G.Skill Trident 2000MHz
Radeon 7990 (formerly a GTX285, then a 7950)
PCP&C 750W PSU
OCZ Vertex 2 50GB
2 x Intel 520 180GB (on a Startech 2 port SATA III card)
Various ancient 500GB/1TB HDDs that I'm amazed still work at all
