In case your wondering what it stands for, its "Black and Blue Everlasting". Third PC project this year ^^'. Actually, its the third I've ever done (lol). Here's a few things I've ordered for the computer. It's going to be a completely new PC. Heres some of the parts I've ordered.

Case- Cooler Master Centurion (black and blue to match the theme of course)
PSU- Thermaltake 430 watt
CPU- AMD Sempron 2800+
RAM- 1 GB Kingston Memory
Video- thinking about getting GeForce 6100 made by ASUS
Motherboard- Biostar socket 462 (A) w/ Nvidia Nforce 4 MX
Other stuff ordered- Masscool thermal paste, 2 Thermaltake blue LED fans (80 mm), and the coolest heatsink ever, the Scythe Katana (aluminum/copper hybrid).

I think this is going to be a neat build, and is going to be the first I've ever built from the ground up.

I have never heard of a 6700 up until today they are just a factory OC'd 6600.

Cooler Master Centurion good choice a simple but nice lookin case.

[progbuddy]

oops, its a 6100 :p. Anyways, I made another mistake. I accidentally got PC400 RAM instead of PC333 RAM. I guess I'll ship it back and get PC333. Anyways, the parts should be in about thursday.

[progbuddy]

Some parts are coming thursday and some next monday. Anyways, Ill have a sketchup done later tonight.

[progbuddy]

I got a few of the precise details done. This things the best I've seen in quite a while...

Note the HDD cooler, and 120 mm fan in the back ^^ lol.

The mobo isnt the one I'm going to be using. Just stuck it in there for reference :p.

Nice modeling, i like the design you have going. Would like to seat how it turns out

[progbuddy]

I'm gonna see if my friend wants this done. I've submitted the plans, and Ill make a few adjustments to his pref. Also, he got the parts put together, and it runs great. Its running on 512 MB RAM, but I'll probably upgrade it for him (prob. 1 or 1 & 1/2 GB). He says that it runs great with the onboard Nvidia graphics, and the AMD processor. The Scythe Katana heatsink works awesome on the CPU. Under a heavy load, the CPU reaches 108F (42C) and idles around 89F (32C). The thermal paste hasn't even "set in" yet, and those are pretty good numbers. I was thinking he might enjoy Vista.
