    Looking good mate. Here's a sneak peak of mine:



    Im going to trading standards with this one company seriously ******* me around after over 4 weeks. Ordered the same bits from scan and aria today, and they have already despatched.

    Ive gone for the new corsair Hx 520W psu over the probably not quite as stable tagan. Im about to set up my new rig thread with pics etc

    Looks awfully clean in there. Agreed no PCI-E in the GPU yet, but still.

    Don't you just find it stupid where they put the audio cable for the optical drives?!?!?

    Ye a little too clean atm, but il try to hide every cable possible.

    O b.t.w, spread the word to people to NEVER EVER USE www.westavon-systems.co.uk. Absolute pain in the . they have ignored my last 3 e-mails since i started getting annoyed and demanding to know what teh hell is going on with my order. Il be speaking to trading standards later on this week if i get no more replies to more emails that i will be sending.

    Here's the last of the pics! - Until I upgrade again (maybe GPU card in the near future!)

    MODDED OCZ 700w PSU:

    The PSU opened up with new RED LED fan


    In action with mod


    In case w/ keyboard in front view too



    FAN BAY MOD:

    Packaging


    With stock 80mm fan (which was a Yate Loon, but push barely any CFM)



    With 80cfm Delta 80mm fan


    Front of P180 with fan bay mod


    Poor shot, but this is the finito look w/ modded Rhebous, PSU, keyboard and mouse.

    Hey guys,
    I'm new to this forum, and to building computers, so please bear with me. I just built my first rig, and it's got the e6600 processor and the Asus P5B deluxe mboard. I mistakenly tried to plug 3 IDE hard drives in at once, and it fried one of them. It had a lot of really important stuff on it, and I don't want the same thing to happen to the one that still works. Right now I have 1 80 gig hard drive plugged in, with 2 partitions. I recently bought 2 SATA hard drives. I don't think I need RAID, and one HD is half the size of the other anyway. Here is my question: How do I install the SATA hard drives without losing information on my IDE hard drive? Can they even work simultaneously? Thanks very, very much for your time guys.
