8.5/10

Almost the same as my PC. But I would've gotten a more trusted MOBO from ASUS or Gigabyte.

Are you going to OC?? The e6750 is a great OCer...

Well I already purchased all these parts and they have a 15% refund policy but I'm not sure if the 15% applies to instore credits so I plan on swapping my P5K for a DS3L and my TruePower Trio 550W for a HX520. Opinions please.

8/10 Nice rig, wish I had it ;)

O yes, one more thing, FOR A BIT MORE YOU COULD HAVE GOT A QUAD-CORE WHICH WOULD BE BETTER IN THE LONG TERMMMM!!!!!!!!!

9/10. You should be happy with it.--Anna--

This is pretty much my comp exactly, cept an MSI 8800 GT OC, Gigabyte DS3L mobo, and Antec 900

Does anyone with the P180B case knows how to take out the air filters? Here is a image of mine:

I think it has something to do with the circled tabs.

I got the DS3L and this was my first time building, I kind of messed up a bit. I only got the CPU, CPU cooler, and memory installed. For the CPU I am pretty sure that I put it the right way and I thought it require a bit of strength to push the lever back into place, atleast stronger than taking it out. For the cooler I inserted with a bit of wire hanging so I took it out and accidentally spread some of the thermal paste on my fingers, should I leave it or buy some? I won't be overclocking by the way. Also the memory required a bit of force and I didn't hear the things click but it did get into place, or atleast where they were originally. I don't think I can build a PC so I asked my cousin to help me tomorrow.

8/10 Nice rig, wish I had it ;)

Meh, I don't think the current quads are that amazing. I would just wait for yorksfield before I blew my cash on a q6600. Not only will prices be better, but there is also atleast a 5% gain at the same clock. I would give it about a 9/10, nice rig = )

9/10, very great build...

I love it :)

They just unlick from one of the sides: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZy1PPgdCr0

I'm using the stock cooler that came with the CPU, it has only a little thermal paste between the CPU and CPU cooler left after I got some on my hand, should I buy some more paste and re-add? Once again I'm not overclocking, help please.xLostHero

Can someone answer this?
