Not decided on the monitor yet (there seems no decent, affordable 22+ inch monitor on the market :cry:)

Samsung SyncMaster™ 226BW 22" widescreen display (http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=computersperipherals&type=monitors&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS22MEWSFV/XAA) is good in my opinion. I've got two of them. A nice LCD screen at 1680x1050 native resolution with a 3000:1 contrast ratio.

Keyboard, Mouse, DVDRW, 4GB Ram, 2 HDS just got in!

Samsung SyncMaster™ 226BW 22" widescreen display (http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=computersperipherals&type=monitors&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS22MEWSFV/XAA) is good in my opinion.

Well, doing design work and all, I don't think that any TN screen will suit me since the colors simply aren't very accurate. What I have been considering is the LG 24" (LG L245WP-BN) which seems to be a better choice than the Dell 2407WFP-HQ, and the best one would be the 3007 30" Dell screen but that thing is just too expensive :(. The 2007 is nice too but it's also rather small (imho)

I have one of those also, beautiful display on it!! Price is reasonable for the quality. I highly recommend it!

No; screw Samsung! I ordered this screen (LG L245WP-BN):

The rest of my PC came in yesterday and I assembled it today. I couldn't get the Asus 8800 GT card so I got the MSI NX8800GT (OC edition).

Assembled:

Is that PSU situated on teh bottom of the case?

Never seen something like that. Makes some sense though, I believe Arctic Cooling did the same thing with the Silentium series.
there's nothing here

Why's that? I don't want to think so much right now, playing Zelda Dx.

I'm guessing, so the cords aren't as much of a bitch.

But heat rises, isn't that sorta bad too?

The cooling system would fix that, I assume.

Zelda Dx? Which one is that?

Link's Awakening. For GBA.

I've been slicing at the bouncing shadow thing for fifteen minutes or something now, I still haven't thought of a way to beat him yet. ^_^

Maybe it can wait till tomorrow.

Yeah it's on the bottom! The PSU fan blows outwards/down so I don't think that heating will be much of a problem. Besides, there's also a fan on the bottom/front (inward), one on the top/back (outward) and one on the sidepanel (outward I think).

Oooh, I have the GB version of that :D

I prefer Minish Cap and Link to the ast though. Not counting The Phantom Hourglass.
