Good on you mate. What kind of case are you using? Something flashy and "too cool for school" or just something functional.

Just using ol beige deal for now. It's a pretty good Antec case, although not flashy. I did manage to get this beast overclocked from a 2.0 to a 2.5. The performance benchmarks are BOOMING on this thing. My first try at overclocking is officially a success!
