    Hi All,
    I have just finished rebuilding my system from an AMD to an i7, After all the BSOD's I needed a change and while doing some searching on the i7's and overclocking results, google pointed me to here. Heres a few pics of my system, I am just running stock speed's ATM as I just finished the rebuild yesterday. My full specs are in my sig.

    Cheers.

    Now was that so hard? Maybe save ur post for after you get a picture. I know you're excited with your new 'puter, but calm down and take a picture like a good little boy. :rolleyes:

    EDIT: I do get pissy because I'm subscibed to this thread. I'm subscribed because I like to look at other's people's rigs. I don't want to get a notification every time some n00b blows his load over the new PC daddy bought him and plasters specs on every thread he comes across. Pics boys pics. :)

    nice to see we know how you afford your computer :)
    i've actaully had this pc for bordering on 3 months- not exactly "blowing my load".
    and just for the record, i live with my girlfriend, work full time, and in no way rely on my father for support :).

    i highly reccomend taking a chill pill mate, from this end it looks like you're about 15, and jealous that your pc isn't half as good and other peoples.

    only child syndrome much?

    I wasn't actually aiming my comment at you bro. I was just saying why it pisses me off. Anyway, enough with the bullshit. Nice rig. :thumbup:

    My first i7 build, upgraded from a Q9400. I also purchased a 5870 without doing much research I discovered that its too big to fit in my case, so i had to remove the HDD cage.

    [​IMG]

    So I purchase this little nifty device made by Coolermaster, basically converts 3 x 5.25" bays into a nice little 4x 3.5" HDD rack with a 12cm coolermaster fan (which is pretty shit house, need to replace it with a noctua unit)

    And here the final product, look its a thermaltake case, and most of you peeps don't like thermaltake but i really like this case, I will however upgrade to a full-tower, but for the moment cash is a little low.
