New switches for the Tx

I
I've just added some Delrin vandal resistant switches. I put them in because they work a lot better than the plastic ones that come with the case, and they look cool too. They look even better when illuminated. They glow blue like a power LED or HDD LED. That silver one's going be replaced with another black one.






Here's a picture of the whole case, with the new buttons.

Thermaltake Mozart TX



This is the BIG box everything is going into!!!
It really is a large case with lots of room for whatever you want to put in it.
Dimensions
: (WxDxH), 12.99" x 14.17" X 28.35"
(For those on metric that's, 33 cm x 36 cm x 72 cm)

I wanted the inside black so... I painted it black.
the doors still need some paint but I put them on to show them to you... although now that I think about it I might just keep them as is.

Motherboard




















This is the motherboard, also used from eBay, but it's a GREAT board. You should consider getting one(that is if it's not OLD by the time someone reads this).

CPU


Here's the CPU... well ok it's just the box, but you get it right? No... ok I'll put up another picture.

This is an Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700.
It's a Quad-Core CPU and it's fast, for now.
I got it used on eBay, but it still works fine... I hope.

My Huge System Build

I've started building a new computer! So far I've got an ASUS Striker II Extreme for a motherboard, an Intel QX6700, some DDR3 from Crutial and a HUGE Thermaltake Mozart TX. but i just can't stop there. from my old system I'm going to take, 2 WesternDigital Raptor X hard drives (RAID 0) and four WesternDigital 500GB drives. To keep it all cool I'm working on a custom water cooling system, and to top it all off the part I bought brand new, an LG ggw-h10n blu-ray burner. Pictures coming soon...

Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is great, especially www.tadalist.com. It's very useful, as i tend to have a large amount of things to do at any one time. Also, http://www.college-cram.com/ is a great website because it helps you cram for college.

Midomi

http://www.midomi.com/ is for all those songs that you just don't know the name of. if you can sing or play or even humm some of the tune, Midomi should be able to find you the name of the song... sometimes. They say for best results you should give it at least 10 seconds of the song , but it's free so try experimenting with it.
