Notes

Complete new build for 2012. Replacing a 4+ year old Q6600/8800GTX/2GB RAM build. I built this PC to last just as long, and not necessarily because I will use the full potential of the components. 560Ti was deliberate as Keplar is just around the corner, and I will probably get a 680 GTX or equivalent. Hoping to get the RAM timings a little sharper. [UPDATE 23/4/2012] Not going worry about RAM timings any more. RAM is fast enough as is. :) Awaiting the EVGA 4GB FTW 680. Have also been looking into watercooling my CPU. [UPDATE 28/4/2012] Added Catleap 27" Monitor [UPDATE] 17/07/2012] Replaced my 560Ti with a new GTX 670 4GB SC+!
