Yeah, thanks. (NOT!)

OK, the deed is done. I have orderd the PC and will be picking it up
today. :-D

So what have I orderd?
2 x nVidea GeForce 8600 GT video cards
1 x Intell Q9550
1 x CPU 750 W Toughpower CM
1 x Big tower
1 Mobo
4 x 2GB DDR2 1066
2 x 500GB HD (Will probably add more in the future)
1 Bigwater watercooling
2 x 120cm fans
2 x 140cm fans

1150EUR for everything (Including probably 700 kilo of packaging)

What I will add from my system is the following:
2 x DVD/CD combo writer
1 x PCI IDE
2 x 160GB IDE
2 x other IDE stuff (unsure if this will be CD players or HD's)
1 x PCI tv card

And if I can still use the last PCI, an extra soundcard.

Conected to 2 x 1920x1200 24" and 1 x 1600x1200 20"

I will also look at overclocking. I will see that I can document
everything. From the start till the poweroutage in Leuven when I start
it up. :-D

Good luck Houghi! Sounds great!!!
