I put a good deal of thought proccess into the rig. I included what I KNOW about myself, mainly being that if there is room, I will try to fill it up. LoL.

This said, the Case actualy holds 2 seperate rigs in the one case. Left side, right side.

The left side is the one I am building right now. The left side holds the following (and is going to be a server side, storage, and other server uses):

MB- ASUS P5N SLI
CPU- 3.73 EE 1066 FSB 2MB L2
HDD- (1) 320GB 7200rpm & (3)250GB 7200rpm
VGU- (1) BFG 7900 512 Mb Ram
PSU- ThermalTake 700watt
RAM- (4sticks) 2 GB Patriot DDR2 @ 533 Dual Channel

As I was saying, I want to limit myself as to the capacity to store stuff. I want this part of the rig to be STRICTLY for gaming, and nothing else. By limiting myself, I SHOULD do well with keeping the crap off.

Ya know, I was trying to figure out what you were talking of in your post, LoL. I finally figured out what you meant. Yeah, the Taxes are going to help with the VGUs, but the rest was no problem. Save a little here and there and really worked out what I wanted and budgeted for it.

If all goes well, should have it REAL soon, maybe sooner than taxes allow, but either way, it is going to be a slow install because once installed, I do NOT want to have to mess with anything. I MAY reseat the waterblock for the CPU, but at this point I want it all to go together correctly the first go round.

End price will be just over 4,000.00 and that is more than acceptable given this thing should last well into the next 2 years, but I will most likely rebuild another one before that time limit. Time will tell, and when I decide, I will too.
