Nice one, good spec there, looking to order myself preety much the same spec at the end of the month, enjoy it!

Keep us updated on progress, will definately be initerested on how that e6300 & ram performs
 
I was gonna take some piccy's during build and post 'em. This will be my 1st real serious overclocking attempt (My old rig was an athlon XP2800 that went from 2.083Mhz to 2.23Mhz and then would just say no more :( )

I'm waiting for the posty right now :D Similar spec.

Yes! Take pictures! My favourite part of getting new things in general is having a nice un-opened box :D Think I'm gonna sex wee everywhere when I get them all out :p
 
Ive got a Tagan 2Force 530W U22 PSU (2 x 12V rails) which should do the Job. As for case thats another matter, however it is big enough to take 8800GTS as I checked card length (220mm x 100mm x 32mmm for card).

I'll see if I can find a piccy of case and post as I cant remember which one it is Doh!

The case:

I actually like this case as it has 1thumb screw to access the inside!

Currently having some (airflow) issues with mine :(

PSU is more than enough (for a single card system) :cool:

Her in doors has strict instructions. Course that does present a new set of problems like "Whats that bit do?" and "Where does that go?" but she can take a good snap. (Was that too much information?)
