While I'm waiting for the chance to upgrade my current rig, I thought I'd put my old parts to use and build another PC (haven't decided a use yet).
To keep things interesting, I've decided that I cannot buy any new parts for this build; they all have to be either gathered from my / my family's old systems. So basically my goal is to finish this build without buying new parts for it, plus maybe to stay within a certain temperature range under load etc.
As of yet I only have the bare minimum of parts, however I do have an Intel DG45ID LGA775 motherboard at this time, so I've decided I'll base my system on that. The case and power supply are from my current rig, before I upgraded them.
The whole system at this time (housed in a CIT IMP MicroATX Case):
Lonely Intel DG45ID :

Lost the I/O Plate also:
I'll let you guys know when I can get some more gear for it. Not sure how long that will be :/
