I appreciate my pc because it makes me realise how much my mac rocks =D

I have 360+GB of storage on my pc.

That's a nice head sink you've got there. How much does that mofo weigh?

I'm not sure about audio, but i know with video editing you want as many harddrives as possible and that you're better off with two individual drives as opposed to striping. Striping is only good if your data is only going in or out and if it's being shuffled around on the same drive it's slower.

that's where it's at. So over computers that sound like a jet. Asus make these riser boards so you can hook laptop cpus into a normal mobo. Not great as far as grunt goes, but an easy way to seriously cut down the noise of your pc.

Gettin that heat sink on was a mission and a half!

Felt like the mobo
was gona snap under its force.

That heatsink is so huge that there are litterally fractions of a millimeter
between the top of the heatpipes and the case.

Gotta love when you can hear the noise of HDD's spinning over the fans.
