Lolwhat? I'm kinda looking for a something a little more rectangular so it fits my gaming environment a little better :D
Yeah, pretty many responds so, but it looks great on the top of a desk.. In my opinion: [img]http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/4087/billede0280.jpg[/img]
This picture is pretty old, so I got a new desk and mouse, but whatever..
Hey you have a logitech wave :D
And you're right, it doesn't look too bad, but I don't think there's enough room for it on my desk, what are it's dimensions?
Depth (without front panel) : 348mm / Depth (with front panel) : 380mm
Width : 295mm
Top half : 103mm
Lower half : 130mm

[QUOTE=SSAAMM;21421316]In regards to HDDs, does it really matter if I get something other than a 1TB Western Digital that uses SATA3? Won't using SATA3 prolong my computers life (in the sense that I won't be left behind in technology... much)?
[B]Western digital are good for having drives that dont fail[/B]
I like the sound of the ATI HD5830 but deep down inside I'm an NVidia man... :( What are the real benefits of using the HD5830 over the Gigabyte GTX260+ SOC? besides a small addition of GDDR5?
[B]DirectX 11 on the 5830[/B]
As for the mobo, I'm not really sure what to go with, are there specific brands I should use/avoid? Generally I just chose a motherboard that fits my parts.
[B]Stay away from asrocks cheaper boards, but Asus, gigabyte and MSI are very good[/B]
What are the advantages of the Liteon disk drive over the Samsung drive I chose?
[B]The Liteon one is cheaper[/B]
A decorative case is a MUST... It'll increase the size of my penis amongst my LAN peers, as we all know. So I chose the Inwin B2 ATX case with the 600W PSU, does that really matter much? (Other than the fact 600W is a bit over the top for my specs?)
[B]The Inwin power supplys arent too great, as you can see here they have a large ripple, meaning cheaper components which dont regulate the voltage as well [url]http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/in_win_com_850w/5.htm[/url][/B]
And last but not least, should I bother installing an additional network card for LAN cables? or is there some kind of adapter I can get should I ever need it?
[B]The network card will be needed if you want WiFi, otherwise the motherboard has a gigabit lan port built into it[/B][/QUOTE]
Thanks for that GoDong-DK, I'm capped so it would have taken me all night to view it, where as facepunch is already cached :D
Bladerunner1, you're a legend... thanks heaps. I'll look into changing the Graphics card and the disk drive, but It's hard to say I don't want that case. Would I be able to remove the PSU and sell it here at a later date perhaps? and then install say a thermal take 550W/600W?
