Getting back into the computer stuff, haven't been gaming for a long time now. Thought I'd post up some pictures of my new PC which I built this weekend. Just some snaps and the spec :D I try to make the cable management as neat as possible, quite therapeutic :)

On a related note, I've installed 2 cold cathode lamps in my PC case:

PSU 750W 80+ Bronze ( I got 580W )
Cooler Master Hyper 412 PS for my Core I7 920 because I won't change PCU and MB ( I have shit at the moment , don't even know which one )
Gotta add 8gb ( I got 4gb now )
Cooler Master HAF -912 Plus + All including fans.
MSI GTX 770 4GB OC ( Now I got GiGabyte GTX 460 1gb )
I'll take care of checking whether the music is royalty-free or not
