Not yet. I can't do it the night before because of time zone differences, and I usually wait until after school on Tuesday when I have more time. I'll post about it in this thread, so if you subscribe/follow it you'll get notified.

I do like the last four suggestions.

I like them as well. There was a bang/buck rig a while ago, so we could do a refresh of that. Mining and Mantle rigs are new, so I'll definitely add those. The PC for a girl seems like it might end up being kind of sexist (how could you make something like that anyway? Assume that all girls like pink and add a pink case?). I also like the brand builds you suggested. Thanks a ton :)
