I hope that rig lasts you. a long...long time!

Only thing I see is getting another 2 sticks of ram, surprised you didn't do that in the first place.

Re: my week old rig

I'll swap you for mine

I've about runn out of 700GB of disk space

But Vanguard runs okay for me on the following:

Core 2 Duo E6700, 2GB ram, BFG Geforce 7800GTX OC.

Looking in march to spring for 3 500GB drives, Auzentech x-meridian soundcard and a 3ware 4 port hardware raid controller

Re: my week old rig

I actually just bought:

8800GTS, e6600, i680 motherboard, 2 gig of corsair ram, thermaltake 750 watt PSU, and the Antec 900.

It's all in the mail, hey is it true it's really hard to get the DVI cable into the port with the 900? I've read about people having issues with that.

And how do you take up 700gig of space? lol. I have a single 140 gig hard drive and haven't even been close to filling it up half way. I delete a lot of stuff I dont need.
