Time to list all of those parts that are just so good, you have to buy no matter what.

The best looking water cooling kit I've seen.

it is also a pretty poor performer.  A top of the range heatsink may even yeild as good as results.

ahh for silence rad-wise he'd really need a bix2 (it has room for 2 120mm fans).  Hopefully you could get away without running the fans.  A session on Counter strike would probable mean you'd need them running half speed tho :-)

I tried having my rad (bip, half of bix2) on the floor for a while (in a draughty corner) and I could get away without the fan running :-)

Stay clear of Abit! They suk big time they had thousands of motherboards with bad caps and wouldn't look after the customers. The caps would melt rendering your MB useless. Mine was bucketed about 1 year ago after the caps went. Abit said out of warranty, sorry. There were literally thousands of people with this problem and they just shafted us.

Too Late Blue!!

The current mobo of choice alongside the Epox for anyone looking for a good quality mobo capable of overclocking is the ABit NF7-S.  It gets very good reviews and user feedback on many boards across the overclocking world.  So I hope that they changed since you had that specific mobo, because I have already bought one.

I use one in my latest pc and my last pc also had one. I have had no problems with either board at all. and they overclock nicely. :twisted:
