But the GT only came out recently, they could have gotten their parts a while a go.

GT came out recently, and only rocks the GTS with PCI-e 2.0 And if you want a mobo with pci-e 2.0 you better be willing to shell out $250+

I like the look of the case, it's kinda looks like *a sleeping giant*... no?
Only thing with the case is the firewire port at the front isnt actually connected to anything... meh.

By "By it get's loud as he!!" I think he means the stereo on either side of his desk....
(assuming you're giving him advice to soundproof is computer)

I'm saving up for some better boxes and headset

You can't see LEDs really clear , don't know how to turn flash off... Hehe

Sides and top are same as Ps3 material

The Z is surrounded by LEDs, and the red things above and under it are LEDs too

my christmas present to myself
I wouldn't reccomend the headphones because of the external decoder being crap. Also some people have had firmware issues with the lachesis but an update fixes most of the problems
the antec on high speed fan is like a hurricane inside
I think with the x64 it has some issues with GW, it crashes randomly.
also itunes doesn't work with 64 so I went back to winamp
