Nice setup. I personally would've spent a little more and gotten a 9800pro instead of the 9600xt. But everything else is damn nice. Although your case is kinda messy .

Is that a Gigabyte mobo?

when i was in HK, which was in Feb, 9800 was a bit too much. I bought the soundcard and video card over there because they were alot cheaper than here. but the other parts are very similar priced. don't know why i waited this long to buy other stuff.

yep its GB MB. yea its messy in the photos but its better now. took out all the unnecessary stuff the guys installed for me.
