Well its time i upgrade just because i fancy something new. I love reading build logs especially when they involve something a bit different so im going to do my best to write one up for what i have planned.

I fancy the following gear.

-Antec Skeleton case.
-i7 2600k
-MSI P67A-GD65
-8GB Mushkin (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800 9-9-9-24 Blackline

Plus load of watercooling stuff.

I already have to go with it,

-MSI GeForce GTX 460 Cyclone 768MB
-Zalman ZM500-HP Heatpipe Cooled 500W Modular Power Supply
-OCZ Vertex 30GB

I will be happy with 4.6 on the sandy.
Not sure what tubing to go with this time iv done 1/2" which was too big IMO, done 8mm/10mm with compression fittings which looked nice and tidy bit i made the mistake of mixing ally in the loop so went crap.
I think i will go with 3/8" with compression fittings, orange UV tubing, the case i want to do it orange and black.

Once i get everything bought i will start a new thread in the case projects area.

Anything else i should consider?
 
If its for gaming that GPU will be the bottle neck of your PC should be fine for now but youl need an upgrade soonish me thinks :)
