So after a LOOOOOOOOOOONG day, many mishaps and much cursing, My "office" looked like this:
My Office early this AM!

I took my MSI Mobo, 8800GTS and X3330 Quad rig out of my original "tin can" Rosewill case and transplanted it into a Chieftec Dragon for more room and a significantly more sturdy case.

P5QL-E Mobo Testing

New home for the Main rig

Main rig waiting for it's home

Old case now holding AMD Athlon 1800+ Linux/Torcher box

The stacker you see in the background is waiting for a new system to be built. I'm gonna toss a Crossfire mobo into it with a pair of HD3870's for some high res/detail Supreme Commander love!

I was debating on the Stacker or the Dragon for my main rig. I still may swap it out later on but for now, the current rig will run in the dragon and the new main rig will get the stacker.

POST EDITED:

It could be the "Aigo affect" perhaps. lol

@ Aigo. Sorry, I'm not trying to jump on the bandwagon using your name as an abjective; this is just going from other threads I've read. I don't want to p*ss off the resident expert in liquid cooling (please see my request below). Daw123 gets on his knees and grovels.

Is it ok if I PM you over the next couple of months? I will probably need your advice, because although I'm not worried out bench testing the liquid cooling system, installing it in my rig and making sure it works, scares the sh*t out of me. I guesss that would be the "noob affect".
