Finally finished building up my new rig after ages of running it on my desk.
Bought an old full tower case off eBay for £16 and sprayed it BMW Bright Red this morning

Highlights include Dual Xeon 3.2GHz with Gallatin-1M cores (Northwoods with 1MB L3 cache)

Also required are dual PSU's as was having corruption issues in games with the 6800 Ultra not getting enough power.

The OCZ Technology 420w PSU is used solely to power the motherboard while the Macron 400w is running the graphics card, hard drives and DVD-RW.

The case side and second PSU mounting was cut by a mate with a plasma cutter and up close its a bit sloppy but looks ok overall, he did scorch the HDD rack a bit tho.

I'm going to be fitting mesh to the hole in the side to ensure good airflow but need the mesh and more paint before can finish that off.
