lol, trying to copy eh

Trust me, your eyes are gonna go to shit within a month of buying that screen, guaranteed.

Pics would be good.
Trashed hardware and bloodied fingers make entertaining viewing.

! CPUs come, 2days from order at overclockers.co.uk, 1st time iv used the site realy impressed. probly going to use the site in future

now to wait till monday for rest of parts




oh and should i do a video of me making it or just pictures?

[clocker]

If you do a video you're required to provided popcorn.

Edit:
I just used the Hiper PSU for my most recent build and really like it.
Voltages remain quite stable and it's very quiet.
You haven't mentioned what case you're using...be aware that those cool RCA style modular plugs take up more room than a standard PSU wiring loom (which can be folded around like Gumby) and you need to take that into account.
