Just need a spare day….

I’ve now got all the essential parts to build the rig;

  • Asus P5E3 Deluxe Wifi @n mobo
  • Antec P182 case
  • Leadtek 256MB 8800GT O/C
  • Pentium Dual Core E2160 @1.8GHz
  • 2GB DDR2 @ 1,333MHz
  • 2x 1TB Seagate 7200.11 HDDs
  • Coolermaster M620 PSU
  • Creative X-fi Soundcard (PCI-E)
  • 250GB 2.5″ WD HDD
  • Icybox 2.5″ enclosure
  • Scythe Kama Panel
  • IDE-Sata converter (so I can use the slimline drive over sata & not use any IDE cables)

I’m also taking the 500GB HDD, TV card and DVD-RAM optical drive from my existing rig.

I’m still waiting for:

  • Slimline optical drive (Scan didn’t have any and the item is discontinued, so got it from eBay)
  • iMon Ultra Bay (I’ve bought it from an Italian eBay seller, as it’s impossible to source them from UK retailers & the only US based one that ships to the UK wanted to charge the same amount as the actual unit
  • free USB Hub from PC Pro (Essential for mounting the dongles inside the case)
  • PCI USB card (with 2x internal USB ports)

All I need now is a day to build it….. which could be a while.
