I'm the happiest kid on the face of the planet. I am posting from a very very fast computer and It just makes it feel soo much more faster being I built it myself.

I would like to thank. LTK007, ADUL, and all of the Anandtechers for helping me out and getting me interested in doing this and not buying a compaq;)

Thanks Again!

Well, you picked a POS motherboard, but other than that, it looks pretty good.

congratulations hubbs, i remember how happy i was after i built my first system. it lasted me for about a year before the itch to upgrade became more than i could bear. take heed grasshopper, it's addictive! he he he he he. id rather have your stable 900 than my unstable 1k. well, right now anyway. i'm going to get it stable and then i'd rather have mine. <shameless plug>i have a thread in technical support if any of you want to help me out.</shameless plug>

Attakid Hubbs! :cool: After building my first system recently, I now know hardware and BIOS/Windows settings so much better! It's a lot easier to figure out where your problems are coming from when you put the whole thing together and you can just pop the case open and fix stuff. :)

Way to go Hubbs I kind of second Russ' thoughts only because I'm partial to my MSI board, but that's just my preference. You sure picked some screamin' components.

Good Job! Enjoy it.

Now let's Overclock that sucker!
