Bob's New PC

So I just got everything transferred over from the old one and am currently finishing up driver and software stuff. I got most of the parts from Newegg for about $1,020. Just wanted to share this with you. :)

Front view. This thing runs extremely cold from what I can tell. Those front vents get VERY chilly to the touch. Surprisingly quiet considering the number of fans.

A neat-looking labyrinth of electric crap and blue is viewable through the side window.

This foot-long isn't exactly $5 but sure is nice. :P

I love this case because it gives off a nice blue glow, without being "OMGLOLSUPER-1337LAZERSHOW!!1!" like most gaming cases. The fans are what really do it for me. This is what they look like in real life; the blue blades appear to stay motionless.

Time for me to go murder some games with this! :D

Nice! Seems you have the next revision of each of my pieces of hardware, and for less dough (though with a second hard drive, it'd be comparable). Did you have to use any rebates to get that cost?

Did you have to use any rebates to get that cost?I actually didn't, but I do have about $110 of rebates that I still have to mail. This would bring the cost down to an awesome $910. :D

Nice and it looks like a good deal/price. Are you using your old monitor then?

Nice and it looks like a good deal/price. Are you using your old monitor then?Sure is. :D

Also, I'm using my old HP w2408 (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01097300&lc=en&cc=de&dlc=en) as it's an awesome monitor and I have no need for a new one.

Cool stuff, Combine. Congrats on the new PC! :D
