first ever killer gaming rig

I am envious, very nice system.

Ah nothing like throwing a bunch of new parts together and having one hell of a machine. Reminds me my P42.8C is starting to get dated
 
got a little carried away playing and totally forgot to upload the pics so here they are:

the altec lansing headphones:

new logitech keyboard:

the mother of all mice:

the whole thing turned out really great. worth every penny. all in all including the lcd monitor, the speakers, the new peripherals: $2600ish... not too shabby i think...
 
damn i like that red mobo...never seen that before. too bad you have nVidia...an ATi card with the red mobo would be pretty dope

as far as i know they have just came out with 16X...or at least developing it. i remember they were scared the hard drive wouldnt be able to keep up with a 16X dvd drive lol...but it works
