im ordering it with 6 case fans: 5 thermaltake smart fan II and one 92mm enermax exhaust fan

Well, i don't oc my pc cause i don't need it, i've 650mhz and that's enough to play this game believe me... i don't gonna risk it to blow up mi comp just for some extra mhz... and when i need more hrz i think it will be much better when i just buy a new processor + motherboard (or how you call it in english) insteed of all those fan's etc.

and now with my new g-force4 the only prob is that i haven't much ram (192mb) and only 10gb rom but i only use 3 so... don't need that either, i've enough other ways to spent my money

well i had just bought a new processor and motherboard recently. Since I had some christmas money to spend i got all of that extra stuff up there. there is more to it than overclocking, its about having a nice looking computer that runs properly. when some newer games come out, i will have the option of doing heavier overclocking because of all those fans. the true point of overclocking is to make games run smoother without having to upgrade every time a new game comes out.

[[WEF]Herr Renz]

yes, but i haven't that problem either cause i don't change game...

when i was 8 years old i've played Tomb raider for about 2 years (man i loved that game, for some reason ) , than i played Rainbow six on-line (my first shooter ) and now i'm almost playing RtCW for 1 year and with the enemy terrotory it will probably take at least 3 years more that's a good way to safe money... and after a time you become really good at those games...

(i'm a terrible game-freak and i've actually only played 5 games 2 of them only for a month or something like...)

ok, here is a pic of my baby... it loves to gib..

[Edogg]

no lights? I think a case with a window should have lights.

[Lord ZOG Profile]

No offense, man...but neaten those cables up! Ugh!

Looks like the aftermath of an air raid at the Vermicelli factory in Naples.

[MeatShield]

yeah, I know the cables.. I hope that you are referring to the rat's nest behind the pc... well, I gets disconnected and taken to LANs alot, and I rarely take care with the cabling, cause once the pc is back on, I rarely get back to the floor..

oh and Edogg... you wanted lights... it has a light... a neon el-cable is planned for the front.... someday..

[Lord ZOG Profile]

I meant inside. What a mess! Be creative, dude. Ever hear of tie wraps?
