NIM Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Nice system, but if I were you, I'd wait for a couple of months and would probably buy a new MBO for iCore7 processors, along with the new Intel processor. But, I'm not sure what will be the price range for thenew processors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest snakecracker Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Here are some pictures of the Case and MoBo.If your building a computer i would say to get this case.its not too big nor too small it can fit most ATX motherboards.or if you want a bigger case with more fans and so on..i'll say for you to get the Antec Twelve Hundred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-shadow-x Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Looking good. I dont like the case to much, but that is me. Good, you got the rite board. Some boards have the PCI-E slots that go over the SATA ports, and over the RAM slots. One thing you should get is a new heatsink, the ones on the Q6600-9300 arnt to great.- Shadow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
