My rig

Specs are in sig. I love this computer sooo much. With my GTS, I could max out FSX except traffic and get between 15-55 FPS depending on where I was. If I was over a city like phoenix or NYC, I'd get between 20-35 or so, and if I was over water or sparsely populated areas, I could get over 40 FPS. Haven't tried it with my GTX yet and won't til I get more RAM, one stick died :( What do you think?
Current Computer specs:

e8600@4.5GHz 1.31v/swiftech apogee GTZ/MCR320/MCP655
EVGA 790i Ultra
MSI GTX280 / XSPC Razor
4GB Patriot Viper DDR3-1800
PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750w
Auzentech X-Fi Prelude
1500GB S

Very nice
not into lights and all that bulls@@t of modding cases, but it looks very nice.

Nah, he won't notice it! If he can have a rig with those specs, he definitely doesn't have any problems with money or whatsoever so it won't hurt I guess.

Cold Cathodes and led fans use very little power. In the whole scheme of computers. Very Nice.

Hey man.... looks great!

I have a black case but it has a clear side, I hope to have something like yours in the next couple of months. How hard do you have to work to keep the E6600 cool @ 3.52? I was thinking of going Q6600, but might go with the E6600 and overclock some. Again, looks great, I like when people can make "art" out of technology.

Dan Brown, go Q6600! With a good cooler and a good motherboard you can overclock it all the way to 3.6 GHz even though that's pushing a little and not all of the Q6600s can get that fast. You could expect to achieve 3.2 GHz.
