Very nice, Sid!

I was getting a little worried when I didn't see you in IRC during the build, but it looks like everything turned out.

NZXT HUSH (hu0001) black
ASUS P5QL pro motherboard
Intel Core2 Q9550 2.8Ghz (currently @ 3.6Ghz)
XFX GTX 260 896mb (with max clock @ 675/1224)
5GB of total RAM (I upgraded from 2 to 4, one of the old sticks broke and i decided to put the remaining working on in so now it's 2x2GB + 1x1GB, so 5GB :p )
2x ~250GB harddrives (took these from my old computer, one for FRAPS files and stuff that takes a lot of space and back up if i need to format the computer, the other one for everything else)

a modded G15 V1 keyboard (basically just the silver parts spray painted black, looks sweet)
Qpad Heaton hardmat (currently the biggest hardmat out there, though it was expensive, gotta pay the price to finally get a hardmat you can actually use :p )
Mionix Saiph 3200 (new swedish company, 4 mice out now and they all are amazing, this one have gone through rage and fury for 2-3 years now and still feels like it's new)
AKG K240 headphones (these are aaawesome if you enjoy listening to music)
ASUS VW225N screen

and that's pretty much it i guess. :D

hmmm....

OS:
Windows 7 64-bit
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X4 965 3.4GHz Black edition.
RAM:
4GB 1600MHz DDR3 (but it runs at 1333 due to motherboard issue)
MOBO:
ASUS M4A79XTD EVO (AM3)
GRAPHIX:
XFX Radeon HD 4870 1GB
HDD's:
244GB WD drive
488GB WD drive (main)
AUDIO:
Ligitech G35 Headset
VIA HD Audio thingy (motherboard thing)
Power:
700W Power Box. Too lazy to find the box that says the model number at the moment.
Monitors:
Viewsonic 1080p monitor (VX2433wm) @ 1920x1080
821S monitor @ 1024x1280

I think my processor has too much horsepower for my video card. However, I do compress a lot of videos, so it's still being put to good use. Debating new video card for some odd reason (even though all of my games run fine on all high settings) but am hesitant because I'm uncertain on whether my power box would handle another video card upgrade. Oh well. (thinking of the GTX400 series, but I have no hope of getting one anyway)

the only fault i see is that the graphics card is VERY bad. a i7 and 8gb RAM won't be useful at all in games with a 5650. search for something with either 1. 5850 2. 5870 3. 460 4. 470 (if you find one, go with 6870 as it's the newest and currently the best out there for its price)

so yeah, get one with a better graphics card if you want to be able to play good games on it.

The PC was custom made and bought last X-mas. I'm not a GFX maniac so I don't need to upgrade more than once every year/two, but I do tend to record the games I play.

Case:
Tracer Transformer

OS:
Win7 Home Premium 32-bit

CPU:
AMD Phenom II X2 @ 3.4 GHz

RAM:
4GB DDR3 @ 668MHz

Motherboard:
Always had issues finding info on that, so cant be bothered ;p

GFX:
Monitor: ASUS VK222H 22" (1680x1050)
Card: ATI Radeom HD 4890

HDD:
Can't find the info on my system, but it's 2 HDDs in RAID (625GB AMD 2+0 Stripe if that tells you anything)

Audio:
Creative SoundBlaster Arena Headset (IMO the best out there, I've tested everything. Fatal1ty is cheap ;D)

Mouse:
Logitech G9 Laser Mouse. Currently sensitivity @ dpi 3200, speed 5/10, acceleration 0/10, refresh rate 1000. Current grip: the small marathon one.

Keyboard:
A really cheap Genius keyboard that is in many ways crap, but it's the keyboard which im using for 6 years, the only one with such a tight key arrangment, such a small key size and wuth such flat keys.

Mouse pad (the best part):
Razer Destructor. It costed me ~60 euros and a slice of my pride but it was really worth it. I play a lot of FPS games, so I'm an audio and accuracy maniac.

Check out the OP's instructions on how to find your specifications:

If you don't know your current computer specs, and Want to Find Out:
Start -> Run (You may have to search for it) -> And type in "DxDiag" and hit enter, It should give a detailed list of your computer specifications.
