im hoping to dual up my graphics by next year and maybe adding a few extras

The mobo has 4 USB 2.0, 1 optical, surround sound ports etc etc and SLI ready

And the case has Mic and Speaker ports and another 2 USB 2.0 ports on the top

How much did that cost you, and where did you get the parts, because that matches the PC I want to build. Also, is the A8N an SLI mobo?

[jonno]

it cost me around £1,400, i got case and processor from www.dabs.com and graphics from www.overclockers.co.uk the rest i ordered from a local computer shop, if u want to know more then add me to msn if u have it, pm me for my addy, i should be getting some photos of it pretty soon so ill stick them on here to show u the finished product lol

And ye the mobo is SLI but if u just have one card in then you have to swap the SLI chip around but when you dual them up you wont need the chip cos u get the gold toothe connector to dual them together, the mobo also has 4 ram slots incase i were wondering.

Don't remember which case, but I painted it with auto paint to match my car.

ASUS P4something something-D
2x 512 MB Something of RAM

Yeah... for some reason my windows machine always randomly shuts off though, and I have no idea why. It will run for a while and then the power just cuts.. but it isn't the PSU that's doing it because I replaced that.
