It looks like your pc moniters desktop background is a picture of a half empty water bottle on a window sill.

What optical drive? ...so we know what to avoid...

It could have been used. It was bought by someone with little to no tec knowledge, it came in a blank brown box and it says LG and super-multi on the front.

I love the lateral SSD's, I would go nuts with Samsung 850 PRO 256GB x 4 in a RAID 0 (after finding a good RAID controller card) and use a 4TB external for backup...that would be sweetness. Problem is that after checking Corsair does not offer a side panel with (2) 140mm fan mount locations for cool air on GPU(s) and I am not willing to sacrifice all the cool air intake/positive air pressure I got going in my CM HAF XM. I don't really care about the window. I also want to mount my 280mm cooler in front and exhaust hot air out the top (since heat naturally rises). You would think that with all the cases available today that at least one would let me do all this. Sorry for venting. Anways, Happy Holidays to you and much admiration for your rig, it makes my imagination soar!

Now if only Windows 7 would install .... (I'm kidding). Some of you may have seen this photo before as I opened it up and tested it before my mother wrapped it up (With her permission as had to give eBay feedback).

 

Very cool little bit of history and it is now my oldest bit of tech that I have dating in 1982.

 

Also I got this:

Saving for GPU. 970 or 980. Might just settle for a 970 as some overclocking performance numbers have blown me away and a 980 doesn't seem to be worth the extra £100+
