New Rig complete

[Duke]

Here are some pictures of the progression. I am getting between 75 - 115 FPS in BF3 with Ultra/High settings averaging around 80 FPS. I may still have a few snags (for example my USB ports on top panel of are not working etc.) and some fine tuning to do. Overall I am extremely happy and Window 7 Professional loads in 11 seconds. BF3 servers (games) load several times faster. My rating ( last picture ) went from a 5.9 to a 7.5. Pictures aren't the greatest but perhaps you can make something of them.

I'm glad you got that up and running. Do yourself a favor and tie up those cables for some better airflow. It doesn't need to be fancy, zip ties work wonders. Looks good though, and isn't the SSD a world of difference from a regular HD? I can't imagine going back to the damn things ever again except for storage.

Did you get the USB working? Cause i think you have it plugged into the wrong spot on the mobo in the pic. Other than that looks good. Good job.

Your new rig is messy--just like Soulzz's sister.
