High end, Overclocked, watercooled 4.2GHz i7 PC 1T+320GB HDD ATI HD 6950 graphics card, lit up case !

I used this a hobby PC and for editing but after I bought a Macbook Pro I barely use it now and all components have had very little use. It is built with the best parts and is as quiet as possible. It looks gorgeous up and running as is about as quiet as you can get for the cooling capacity. Even with all the fans cranked up you just get a whooshing sound from the air. PLEASE NOTE: This a high-end overclocked water-cooled PC. It is really for the enthusiast and not for those who know only a little about computers. It may involve knowing how to use the BIOS and what overclocking entails. However, it is still a very stable and reliable platform. I can also reset everything to standard if you wish. BIOS can hold several profiles. The highlights - Super quiet - Super fast Intel i7 920 DO stepping 2.66 GHz Quad Core CPU Lapped (OC to 4.2Ghz stable) Socket 1366 Gigabyte EX58-UD3R mother board with Thermalright HR-09U MOSFET heat pipe cooler for wate cooling set up (STD cooler included) 3x2GB Patriot Viper DDR3 1600MHz memory (8-8-8-24) MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III ATI GFX card - Power Edition Enermax Liberty 620W modular PSU Swiftech Apogee XT CPU water block Gigabyte Aurora 570 aluminium chassis Magicool Slim 420mm Triple 140mm Radiator 1GB SATA II Seagate HDD + 320GB SATA II Maxtor HDD The Motherboard/CPU/RAM Bundle 4.2GHz This killer combo clocks to 4.2GHz easily. I had it at 4.5G for stable 20 mins using the same settings I would that higher than 4.2G is achievable with tweaking. The CPU and Swiftech Apogee XT CPU cooler are lapped and are set up without the mainboard CPU clamp. The standard clamp distorts the CPU cover and stops them mating flat. After removing the clamp CPU core temp dropped by a massive 12˚C!
