Now the festive season is upon us all, i'm gonna hibernate with a few cases of stella and some screwdrivers.
Yep, i'm gonna build a bling bling minitower.
I've looked at kustompcs and overclockers etc, but does anyone know any other good "COMPONENT" sources.
Also, having been a Pentium user for all this time, i might make the transition to an AMD system.

If anyone has any recommendations or advice, pls let me know as i got to lose a bit of cash this week and dont want to spunk it on a load of cr4p!!

My starting point will be this puppy.


thanks in advance.

If I was building a new PC, (which I aint as I have 5 on the go atm ) it would have to be started with this puppy. Bling bling isnt the word.

It has been tested with a 9800 XT as the case has side vent mesh which also looks cool with a neon in it.
