Ram - G.Skill DDR3 1600 8GB cas 9..

like that, so that will be what you see instead of the normal PSU cables coming out.

very nice. especially the solid state hard drives, and kickass graphics card for gaming.
Your rig probably cost far less than the standard crap you pay a grand for at DELL.
You got a blu ray in there?
What monitor you gonna use?
How many hours did this take to assemble?

1 SSD for now. The crucial I got was only about $85, so i really couldnt pass that up.
No optical drive at all.
I have an acer that I bought a while before I even planned on putting this together. It is however a 1080p edgelit LED slim monitor but VGA only.....:(
It took about 3 hours or so. I still have to mount the SSD some where, maybe behind the mobo tray, but the sata power cable wont reach.
I found a guy how might be able to custom sleeve me some cables, and I might get him to do a white and orange kind. maybe like 2 white and 2 orange pattern.
I really took my time with this and wanted it to look really good.
I want to sell this graphics card and get a new one still though. Im looking to get a HD 6950 (probably a 2GB one.)

If you want it to look good, why all the LEDs?
It looks like your computer was directed by Joel Schumacher.

HA, maybe if they were tacky blue leds. Mine are "so fresh and so clean" white.
