Well last year I sold my gaming Rig to Hailfire and took a little time off of gaming in general. My withdrawal symptoms became to much, however so I built a pretty nice rig.

I decided to go with a socket 775 system due to a bundle package that got me a nice mobo, cpu, cooler, RAM and case for $200

Mobo: Gigabyte G41m-es2l
CPU I got an E3300 duelcore celly with it but for my b-day I got the Core 2 Extreme QX9650
Thermaltake V1 Max-Performance CPU Cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16835106102
4GB of Gskill RAM DDR2 800 (plan to upgrade to 8gb soon (2x4gb)
GTX260 EVGA video card
Western Digital Caviar Green 1.5TB SATA hard drive
650watt hec PS
2x Lite-on DVD-RW drives
Put it all in this really cool looking HEC case
I play on my Dynex 32" HDMI TV
Sill using my G-5 mouse and a multimedia E-machines keyboard

Anyway decided to play with Overclocking for the first time in a few years and I have it running really steady at 4ghz by just changing the multipliers.

BTW if anyone wants the E3300 I'll sell it to ya for $30 shipped (inside the US) comes with intel cooler and only used it for about 3 weeks.

Everything is tip top except that it seems that web pages load slow, I'm not sure if it's a windows 7 Ultimate issue or something in my config. If I'm at 100% playing top games it seems a tad strange that the msn homepage would load slow if it was a hardware issue.

Firefox for me, had too many issues with chrome, but I get the same issue on the web page loading on Opera and IE6 so it's not hardware. I think I may just do a reinstall

/shrug

I've decided to fully embrace my Google Overlords. I still have FF and IE installed for the few pages Chrome won't load but I like it.
