Video Card - Evga GTX 285


Memory - CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)


Power Supply - CORSAIR 850TX 850W


HSF - Noctua NH-U12P SE


Hard Drive - (2) WD VelociRaptor 74GB in RAID 0 , Samsung 640GB (previous build), WD Caviar Black 640GB


Case - Cooler Master ATCS 840

CD/DVD-RW - LG Black 22X DVD+R


USB Drive - 2GB Crucial Gizmo



Thanks and I appreciate all feedback
 
Made a small edit on the card and switched to Evga standard GTX 285. I figured with a small overclock I will be at the SC or SCC speeds for a cheaper price. Correct?
 
Given current trends and available NAS solution loading computer with the gallery of HD is a Mistake.

Build yourself a Home Server from old parts and free the Main Rig form the "fattening" storage.
