    Thank you Ryan!
    I'll give it to him later today, and you are right, he is going to be thrilled. It is so great to see their faces when they are surprised and happy!

    This isn't mine Alan, but if you just want one to look at. My HAF X will fit inside this case! It's the new Corsair Obsidian Series 900D Super Tower Computer Case Just imagine, this is a EATX Motherboard with 3 dual slot cards and 2 X 480MM rads in push/pull with 2 huge reservoirs. It has room to spare. Supposed to be released in April.

    So, you have a place to stay if Mrs. Essenbe kicks you out.

    So this is what I put together for my youngest nephew whom graduated from high school with honors and was admitted into a great school in the US.
    A promise is a promise, so I kept my word. Thank god his father took care of the car!!!
    It is way too cool of a rig for a 17 year old hardcore gamer. I wish I had something like this when I was his age.
    This will buy me the title of best uncle for about three months. I have 5 brothers, so competition is tough!
    I tried the rig out playing some Sleeping Dogs (a gift from a very good brit friend ) and Crysis 3 on a 32" monitor. Silk smooth.
    I couldn't help it and had to run Unigine Heaven 4.0. Scores like one of my OC'ed 7870s.

    Cheers,

    Another great job, Juan. You should be 'Uncle of the Year' for that. Very well done.
    Thank you Steve!
    At this stage of the game I believe uncle of the year would require nothing less than a Lear Jet.
    I'm enjoying the building thing so much that I think everybody I know is going to get rigs as christmas presents, birthday presents, wedding presents, graduation presents... You know what I mean...
    Now that the summer is finally over I might get in trouble once again. As the weather grows colder and the days become shorter I have too much time in my hands to think about my next build...
    Just so you know, I have a birthday next week or so.

    LOL Steve. To put together a rig to satisfy you I would have to sell my car, my boat and probably my GF too!

    No mate just down stairs, Just my house's insulation is crap and i can't afford to run the heating 24/7 lol. I was shocked enough at my gas bill for last quarter alone. I could have built a media rig with that money lols. Hopefully the next cold period won't be as bad, Not that its anything like the cold weather some of you get aye. BRRRRHHH!

    Yeah, we heat with gas and turn it way down at night. We have had a mild winter, nothing sub-zero.

    We also have gas heat, and I still remember roughly 10 years ago when the price of natural gas more than tripled. It is really cheap now and even the coldest month the gas bill was really reasonable. Our winter down here is quirky at best. Several times this winter we have had 70+ degree days and then overnight, it would dip below freezing and we'd have a bunch of snow and ice. There is a saying in KY: If you don't like the weather, give it a few minutes.......true more times than not!
