Someone stole my name! My new project has a a 80+ silver PSU and a Thor's Hammer CPU cooler, I was going to name it the "Silver Hammer", but since that's already taken, this project will be named "The Bambi Killer". The goal? Spank the hammer into annihilation!

Why Bambi and not Monster Buck? That's because it is starting out with only one 6970 installed. With 2 PCI Express x16 slots and two more PCI Express x8 slots, it has a ways to go to become a monster.

Here are the specs:

GPU: XFX Radeon HD 6970 2GB
CPU: Core i7 950 - only $199 at MicroCenter!
MB: GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel
Cooler: XIGMATEK Thor's hammer HDT-S126384 - for plenty of OC room
RAM: CORSAIR XMS3 12GB (6 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 - no swap space needed
PSU: PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II PPCMK2S750 750W 80 PLUS Silver
HDD: Dual Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB SATA 6.0Gb/s - will be mirrored
DVD: Sony Optiarc CD/DVD - because the dead E2160 it is replacing has an IDE drive
Case: Antec 900 - plenty of vents so it can heat the office
