Default Build for my 6-year-old daughter.
I have built around 40 systems now for customers and friends, so I decided to build a PC for my daughter. She has been playing around on my computer now for almost 5 years so I figured it was time she got her own. After all she has a nicer cell phone than I do, so what the hell?

This is what happens when you tell her to just get whatever she wants.

She definitely wanted a see-through case with goofy rainbow lights in it. Sorry if I offend any of you guys if you have something similar, but rainbow lights are really for little girls only. I am also sorry if her rig is now more powerful that some of you grown-ups too.

Since the OS is still very stripped down, it is for now even more powerful than my own rig, even using only my old BFG 7900GT Overclocked edition. (She will inherit my 8800GTS soon enough) This is mainly due to the 4 Gb of DDR2 RAM she has. (I only have 2Gb DDR)

Specs:
MOBO: GigaByte GA-P35-DS3L
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Conroe
RAM: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
GRAPHICS CARD: BFG 7900GT Overclocked Edition
CASE: Sunbeam AC-T Transparent Clear Acrylic ATX Mid Tower
PSU: 500w Ultra ULT-500p Ultra-V Series
DVD BURNER: Pioneer 20X DVD±R DVD Burner
COOLING: 1x 120mm Thermaltake front fan, 4x 80mm Antec Tri-Cool fans with multi colored LEDs, 2 intake, 2 exhaust
Stock HSF on CPU and GPU, ramsinks on graphics mosfets. AS5 all around

Overclocked to 3.2GHz Orthos stable at 42c load. (Man I love these Intel chips) Still need to do a little more wire management and get some cute graphics on there, but for now it's done. Also, check out the HDD cage I stole from my 900. It really matches the mesh screens I installed behind the 80mm fan guards.
NOTE TO SELF: Never buy another acrylic case again. Wire management is way too hard!

You still have room to stick a fuzzy little stuffed animal in the front.

OMG. I am so going to do that. It may even help keep some of the dust out by collecting it on the fur!

If it catches on fire, you didn't get that idea from me.

Yeah, maybe the stuffed animal might not be a good idea.

Maybe the rig is a little overkill for playing SpongeBob Bowling 3-D but what the hell, like DeRock said, it was just an excuse for a fun project.

And sorry Grunion, I can barely afford the 2 high-maintenance women in the house I have now.
