The truth is, this computer took me quite a while to build. Some of the parts that i'm using were actually released in 2008, but i only had the chance to have it all put together only recently. The reason for the long delay? Well, mostly because Intel processor systems are expensive to work with.

Still, i did learn quite a number of things experimenting with this set up, such as overclocking and some new things that i didn't realize before. Now that i have a much clearer idea on what to do for system builds, the next one i pick is probably going to be much cheaper. Probably an AMD system :P


For anyone who's interested, here's a run down on my system specs:

CPU: Intel Core2 Q9650 3.6ghz (400 x 9); CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Plus
Mobo: EVGA Nforce 780i SLI Motherboard; P09, FSB 1600
