Wow Athlon 64! I was a little ahead of that with their Phenom series, this is only my second build so you can imagine the gap I've had myself.

I definitely feel I've hit the sweet spot for an enthusiast build and have no real complaints so far. I do find the stock cpu cooler to be a little noisy but I'm quite funny with that sort of thing.

It took roughly two hours, I did some fiddling with the cables to get them as tidy as possible, that tempered glass side panel makes you really conscious of the look lol.

I've also picked up a 21 inch AOC HD monitor 75hz refresh, 1ms response time for £75. My only gripe with that is the blacks don't pop very well, they look more washed out but for the price, can't complain.

Added a few more pics to the album of it alive and kicking.
