New Computer

So we finally have all the goodies to finally put together a solid desktop:

Intel Board DX58S0: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/motherboards/desktop-motherboards/desktop-board-dx58so.html

Intel Xeon E5520 CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117185&cm_re=E5520-_-19-117-185-_-Product

EVGA 01G-P3-1373-AR GeForce GTX 460 Video Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130568

Lite-On Blue Ray Burner w/ lightscribe, 12GB Memory, Heatsink, 120GB SSD (will add internal 2TB later), running 64bit win 7.

Got the case and fans from Picklz, and lots of help picking out the above from Colin.

I'm looking forward to getting this together and seeing how it will do in terms of gaming, video editing, and movies!

Then the current Dell desktop is getting regulated to music and general old file storage.

Nice! I need to improve cooling on my CPU it likes to shut down my computer after overheating. I think it may just be dusty, just need time to pull out the motherboard and check it out.

Can't even play COD anymore without it shutting down due to thermo protection, hell my virus scan shuts it down if I don't have the side case off for venting :(
