Heh, I have a great case, but when my power supply died, I unplugged all my fans and mods. Then the case kinda started to suck. But it will be better again! Im gonna get all my fans back, then it will be great.

I changed my mind on a few things.

Im gonna get (for sure now):

Power Supply: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-103-604&depa=1

DVD Burner: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=27-131-227&depa=0

Processor Fan: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-106-017&depa=0

And because stock thermal grease is simply unacceptable, I will be getting this (although not online):

I already have my case mod. My proudest achievment is that I bought a power supply acryllic cover, so its red plastic cover. Then I put a red LED fan in instead of the the stock fan. It rocked.

Ya know there is no point in having a seperate cd burner as well as the dvd burner now days.

If you go for the pioneer 108 model 16X burner, it will do pretty much everything.

Heh, cant afford the 16, or I would.

Yah, the DVD burner will burn CDs too.

I'm also going to be getting stuff now I have a job. Take me a while but I plan to get a motorbike, pass the CBT for it and get the clothes, a French Horn and a decent laptop.

I'm thinking about getting a scooter if/when I get a job.

Good luck with the CBT- I've heard it's pretty simple

I just went into Virgin Megastore and bought it, *shrug*

On another note, I can very much see myself getting addicted to shopping with i-tunes.

Lol. i'm still stuck with a gf3 ti500

I'm not really into games, and I think doom 3 is not what it's all cracked up to be. If I was into games, I think I would save up for a pci express system with two 6800 ultras in SLI.
