Notes

First build that I made and was built on an extreme budget (my dad paid half the base cost). I have slowly upgraded over the year (give or take a month or so) I have owned it. *Originally was built in a Antec 900 hand-me-down from cousin *Upgraded case and PSU to HAFX with HCG 750 from a crappy Diablotek 500W *Started with only 4GB Patriot RAM, but it went bad so I upgraded to 8GB of Gskill at faster speed (justified having 64 bit W7 at that point) *Then upgraded cooling from stock cooler and got the Z68 FTW to upgrade from a MSI P67A-G45 *Edit 7/21/12* Added new pics of build on new desk, new monitor, and etc Now I'm hoping I can get enough posts to get the $1000 to build a real Beast!
