|  happy bday to my rig!!!
well my rig is officialy a year old now !!!  the only thign i really have which is from the original build is the q6600 and the 600w strider. ive take this thing from 7k to 20.4 in 3dmarks. i started originaly with a maximus formula, this q6600. and a 7950gt and 2gb of crucial balistix, and xp. i now have the q6600 at 3.8 with a 750iftw sli 8800gts and 2gb of no name value ram. itsfunny how things coem so far in just under a year it is nice to know this rig has lasted tho. also i now no longer have a case will soon tho. i can say i owe all this to tech-forums, and overclocking of course  im still the forum q6600 oc champ for stability on air

Man...you got me thinking about the last year in computer parts. You're right...it's crazy how much things change and how fast. A little over a year ago I had an X2 6000+, a DFI Lanparty, 340MB 8800 GTS SLI, and 2GB of OCZ Platinum. Then I went to the E6850, 8800 GTs, and I've had like 3 different kinds of RAM. Now I'm where I'm at for a bit hopefully.
