What's an itouch? I'm pretty sure there is no product named that. Do you mean an iPod Touch?Yeah. Don't call it that.
Yeah in your face.
No Freek. I like u.
And please tell me that you're not using a crappy CRT screen with this >_<
Oi, congrats. It's all a learning experience I suppose this wouldn't be a good time to critic your part list haha, I've been gone. Might I ask why you chose your current HDD over the Samsung F3? SATA 6 gb/sec and capacityOr why you chose the GTX 465 over the 460 (Good choice on EVGA though)? I did because my dad wanted me to get this thing built soon. He also didn't want me to use the EVGA because I was already over budget and he made me use a sparkle card. (the one I had up there earlier) The CPU cooler you posted is. . . odd looking imo. I idle around 20 and can play 3D games around 30-40.I was looking at that case, how do you like it? This thing works great! can't believe how much it cools my parts. I put my hand in the HDD area while it was on and I felt like my hand was outside for a few minutes in the winter! Of course, my room is poorly insulated and Im in the 2nd story of the house.EDIT: I know you already figured this out, but if a PC doesn't start, it's not getting power A PC will power on without a graphics card, so that wouldn't be the problem. And it's not really possible for you to seat the CPU improperly lol. And please tell me that you're not using a crappy CRT screen with this >_<Actualy yes I am using a CRT and an lcd screen toogether. I just use the CRT for in game stats and things like that. I plan to replace these both with a 20 inch LCD as soon as I get the money.

Ohh I missed that. Yeah, that makes sense. Good choice then. Hmm ok. The 460 is cheaper and faster. Stupid nVidia and their naming scheme for the 400 series :P I wish I knew this earlier Hm, not bad. I'm a Thermaltake fan. (ha, pun, get it? lol) not realy.I didn't see the case until you posted it. It looks interesting, I may have to try it out and buy one sometime You should. I looked at the hardware reviews, and my CPU cooler should have the CPU around 20 C warmer, but I think my case has made it even more eficient. I have 3 HDDs in this thing and it barely makes any noise as long as my 2nd HDD stays off. (the one from the old PC) I plan on clearing these HDDs and making a multiboot on it so my laptop HDD has OSX, my primary has the windows 7 on it, and the one from the old PC will have linux on it.Ohh ok cool, gotcha. I was gonna say, if you're using just a CRT screen, you just wasted money on the PC lol. Personally, like Jacob said, I would get at least a 23" screen with 1080p. Stay away from LG, btw. I'm running a 22" and it's too small on 1080p D: I'm planning on getting a 24" next year, my eyes are going bad on this thing haha I was thinking of a samsung with 2 HDMI ports on it so I could have 1 for the PC and 1 for something else like a PS3.

Guess that kicks was WRONG, I can build a PC, and i do know what i'm doing!
I could also use the old PC screen and hang it above my bed so I could use it at night for watching movies or playing a game or 2.
LOL that wasn't the screen Im talking about. Im talking about the LCD. funny idea though. Ive seen news reporters KO'd by stage lights before, but not a person sleeping then KO'd from an old white monitor smashing them in the face. It would be interesting to see that in slow motion. Old PCs own literaly!
