My old system was not really cutting it, it consisted of an AMD 2.0ghz Toledo on an HP OEM MSI mobo with some no-name power supply and DDR1 memory. That just didn't fit my needs at all. I decided that a core i7 would hopefully last me as long as that old AMD did (roughly 4 years).

Parts list:
Intel core i7 920 2.66ghz @ 3.780 w/turbo
G.Skill 1600mhz 9-9-9-24 @ 1440mhz 8-8-8-22
WD cavier black 1tb 32mb cache
Noctua NH-U12p SE1366
EVGA 8800gt 600/1750/1800 @ 700/1850/2000
EVGA 8500gt 449/900/800 (PhysX)
Corsair TX650w PSU
EVGA x58 motherboard

Camera lens is horribly blurry, too excited to clean it. Camera is also pretty bad to begin with lol.

Awesome job, but why such a weak video card? I'm guess you're not much of a gamer?
