Default My First Build :)
Well I decided it was time to replace my 5 year old Pentium 4, so I built this.

AMD Phenom II 955BE 3.2GHz
790XT MoBo
Dark Knight Cooler
4 GB DDR3
640 GB HDD
XFX ATI HD4890
750W PSU

Not the best quality pictures... but here we go.

All my parts.

After I put everything together. Inside could be nicer, but it's good enough for me (Loose wire is for a fan that's on the side panel)

And there we go, up and running. Need to invest in a better desk, and better monitor.

Gonna keep everything stock for now, just see how it is.

It is in dual channel, the slots alternate I guess. 1 3 2 4. At least that's what the manual said....

edit: thanks for pointing that out... I need to change them misread.

Looks like a great build you got there!

By the way, the third pic is the best, because of the subie banner. my Subie
