| My work here is done | This is really a group effort, as I started this article 10 months ago and worked on it sporadically, the Blake, then a few others.....but full credit goes to Joe "Htiman" for taking the time to put this together into something worth reading....stay tuned for part 2 next week, the actual build....to be followed by part 3, Optimizing your system.

| Functional Alcoholic | Thanks Simple. Rich put a lot of effort into it too, he did a real good job of sexing it up. It turned out pretty good. I sent the article link to my Dad, he told me "I didn't know you were that good of a writer." I didn't tell him it was severely edited LOL. |

| My work here is done | Hardly, Joe is being modest, he did an oustanding job writing this up.....a fact that will become clear once we post the second part of the series...... I'm still looking for someone to write up the guide for installing windows, optimizing the system.....and maybe another guide covering overclocking....please contact me if you might be interested in contributing INTEL QX9650 // ASUS Maximus Formula II // 8GB PC2-8500 // BFG GTX260 MaxCore // DD Torture Rack // Seagate 750GB HDD // OCZ Vendetta // PC Power & Cooling 620W PSU |

| My work here is done | That cooler is actually the Zalman CNPS9500-AM2, and though it looks huge, its very light and a very good cooler INTEL QX9650 // ASUS Maximus Formula II // 8GB PC2-8500 // BFG GTX260 MaxCore // DD Torture Rack // Seagate 750GB HDD // OCZ Vendetta // PC Power & Cooling 620W PSU |
