Thanks guys

Took as long to take it out of the old case, clean it up and put it on the bench station as it did to build the freaking thing :s

Loose molex plus was originally going to be for IDE DVD-RW but I went SATA instead. (IDE drive is a lightscribe drive so will go in my 24/7 rig)

Smaller heatsink is because this CPU runs cooler than my 920 and is going right next to an AC vent It will eventually be getting an upgrade when I can afford it.

Zip ties were left long so I can staple them to the bottom to hold that rat's nest in place.

First bench station built, think now that I know what I am doing, I can make some improvements and still knock these out in under an hour

Oh, going to get a piece of strap steel for straight across the back as a pci expansion support, but with the dual slot cooler and the closely placed PIE slots on this ASuS board, I do not need it, card rests on the release level of the slot next to it perfectly lol

Smoking a cigarette and going to go cobble together the top for my desk (only part of my desk that has not changed after the first design lol
