Pretty much updated my whole pc today, ud7, 2500k, ax850 and i have 1 GTX580 soon to be a 2nd one in there within the next few weeks, so if anyone has the stock EVGA 580 they want to offload in the next few weeks, let me know ill be keen.

yeah, as I showed the bitter half the exploding pump vid, she kept saying all the way through, "why is he still filming?!?"

what else ya gonna do? merc has at least a 50/50 at chumping a quarter mil off channel 9 funniest home vids (mate of mine won about 6 months ago), sometimes you just never know what is the better outcome - selling that used car or charging people 20 bucks a head to see you drive it off Wilsons' Promontory? Alcohol is too damn convincing...

Noticed that my EK res is leaking.. again.. and its a new EK res.

Not sure whats causing it, the last res wasn't over-tightened and it was just as bad, this one I had left alone.

Pic with the flash on

Quick overall clean up.

Just waiting for my fans to arrive from the US, so I can continue my new build and use a completely different res.

Changed wired network switch from a 100mbit to 1gbit - awesome improvements now, server isn't getting choked and crappy when more than one person is accessing it and getting transfer speeds of 100Mb/s+

Finally got my extensions in for the 24pin, 8pin, 6+8 PCIE cables, tidied up the cabling again plus the GTX670 and i'm pretty happy with it (for now

)

Could it be to much pressure?
