My first dedicated folding rig is complete!!

This has been many weeks in the making. It started because I replaced my 8800GTS512 with a GTX 260 and I needed something to do with my "old" 8800.
Specs:
Q6600 lapped (From my previous rig)
EVGA 8800GTS 512MB (From my previous rig)
EVGA 8800GTS 512MB (Might add a 3rd around Christmas)
Corsair XMSII 2x1GB
EVGA 680i
WD 74GB Raptor
Antec 300
2x Scythe SFF21F fans in front
Silverstone Zeus 650W PSU
XP 32
Xigmatek HDTS1283

Agreed. That could have multiple purposes.
(1) gaming rig
(2) folding rig
(3) backup rig
Can't go wrong with any of those choices.

Yes, Dranom finally got ahold of me and we got it taken care of.
I got a great deal on the Raptor, that is why I bought it. I believe I got it used for around $55 or 60 shipped. I was going to spend just a little less on a small HDD, so I figure, why not get the faster Raptor? I initially had a used 80GD IDE HDD but it was SOOOO SLOW. I took it from a friend when I re-did her PC that someone who did not know anything about anything built for her. I did not know it was so slow, so now I am just going to put a bullet through it.
No, I do not plan on running SMP right now. This rig will be an hour away from me so if anything goes significantly wrong, it will not be easy for me to fix it. I also do not have access to this building as it is my friend's dad's office. This computer will also be used as a second backup for office documents.
*EDIT* I bought an 8800GTS512MB for a client's build which will not be built until late November... so I put that 8800 in here, too. I think I am going to keep it and just buy him another video card when it comes time to build.

So now I am running 3 8800s if the PSU can handle it!

Great Job!

AFA the HD, You don't need quick or even fast times on the hd. You could run it off and old zip drive if you wanted and it would not hold up the client.

I'm checking it right now, all seems to be ok. It has been "alone" for about 9 hours now.
