the case does look old, but having it look like a sleeper case is pretty sweet. it actually looks a lot like this antec case that i used on a couple of builds that i did for some friends of my parents, and i got it for only $30 bucks at CompUSA back when they were still in business, lol. Remember those days guys??? ahhh memories, LOL

What memory did you have was bad? Was it the G.Skill DDR2 1066? It seems a lot of people aren't getting so lucky with them.

It was this RAM that was bad. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231207

Ordered this to replace it. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145184

I like it pretty good.
Got it OCed to 630MHz core and 1GHz memory (2GHz effective) on the stock cooler.

Also, running 6GB of RAM now.
