Thought I'd share my i7 build
Finally got all of my parts together!
I've been computer-less for two weeks. It feels great to have a new build together after scrounging up pennies. Here she is. Specs in sig-rig. So far, I'm VERY impressed with this i7 920. 4.1ghz on budget air cooling is outstanding. I max at 70C after 20-passes of intel burn test. Still some head room and I'm still working on a nice overclock. I'm having some trouble getting 21x multiplier to function with the Bloodrage. Cable management also to come, just trying to figure out where I want fans and blue cathodes Overall a very positive experience.

the white fans are by Xigmatek.
THe one on the heatsink is the stock Dark Knight fan, translucent black body and fins, white LED's, the case fans are Xiggy w/ black translucent frame and orange fins. They look amazing in person. Not the most silent, but worth it imho.

Searching for a max air stable overclock.
This is where I'm at right now.  HT off obviously. It's not worth the extra 15-20 degrees considering I dont use any apps that would use it. This is after 20-minutes of Prime95 Small FTT's
