My naked desktop pc at the moment:

Swapped the motherboard to Asus P5KPL/1600, swapped Pentium D to E5200 and 7300GT to ATI 4550. Thats all for now still waiting for the Sileo 500 casing to arrive. Think I'll stop modding for a while after this. rclxms.gif

Btw got idea which ATI card is good for crossfire? Not too expensive la... Suggestions?

Current specs:
Dual Core E5200 2.5GHz
2GB Kingston RAM
Gigabyte ATI HD 4550
Cooler Master Hyper TX cpu cooler
Maxtor 80GB HDD
Samsung DVD-RW
Asus P5KPL/1600 mainboard

No casing at the moment, so put on the table for natural cooling rclxub.gif

Future mods:
Cooler Master Sileo 500 casing
Cooler Master PSU - get cheapo one since I'm not a hardcore gamer
Dual ATI graphic cards for CrossFire
Change my OS to 64 bit Vista
8GB of RAM

Personally I do not likes those comp table design, kinda they also need to revolutionizeee... Since today most people actually showing off their casing.

Well, first thing first... Fix those cables with anykind of creative way you can figure out. Sometime we just need to be creative rather than spend alot in accessories...
