    1st PC!

    Got my first PC that i own outright today!

    Bought parts, my mum didnt want me to get electrocuted and die...so she paid someone to do it for me

    i have a few pics of the end result sorry about links!

    1.http://i14.tinypic.com/33ju8ig.jpg
    My Intel E6300 Dual Core...Standard Heatsink though will do for the time being.

    2.http://i17.tinypic.com/3yfl4r7.jpg
    Inside of my case, a bit of a mess, my favourite bit is the blue fan at the front

    3. http://i13.tinypic.com/3yy7yc3.jpg
    my graphics card until my x800GTO arrives.
    (it lags on mspinball) bit of a let down to the rest of the parts

    thanks for looking
