Woo - Rig Came in!

[mxracer050]

Well! My parts came in yesterday for my new build!

I was off to build myself a nice powerful gaming rig.. oh wait.. I've never done it before.

It proved to be a heck of a day, but I got it.

Here are some photo shots.

-When the PC parts first came in, had to show them off!





In the process of building it! (my brother took the photo, keep in mind he had to work 8 hours that day, and he helped me after.. thats how long it took)




This was the first "test" or "moment of truth", testing for first time. It failed of course.. took me a bit, but found out I had forgotten to plug in 8 pin power connector.




And! FINALLY! 12 hours after I had taken a picture of my parts! :cursing:




Now for the installation! Let it begin! ( Everything is stupid fast with VelociRaptors Raid 0 )
-Oh and its a rookie setup, just for installation purposes. :P






That was my day!! OH THE JOY!

Grats on the arrival, and on your first build! Man its been a while since I built my first PC. I was previously a Mac user (still have one I think) It gets easier. For me, I have big hands and getting those jmpers for the front lights and buttons is the hardest part. One brand I used came with a removable "master" jumper, made a world of difference!

Nice rig,


Gimme. I want another.

How's your sound card? I myself just ordered an ASUS XONAR ESSENCE STX...I've only heard good things about it.

well.. the new PC is actually behind all of that mumbo jumbo you see. I had it laying on its side, because I was diagnosing what went wrong, but it was fixed :-)

I actually have not tried the soundcard yet, as I was in a different house at the time with no headphones or speakers. I'm trying it out tonight, I will let you know how it goes.

Gratz on your new rig.

Reminds me that the first thing I have to get when I finish my studies are more monitors.
