thanks Treads, I will do new benchmarks when i get home from work tonight and post them up. I have sold a few computers now but never sold them directly after finishing the build because I usually keep them for awhile.
Hass, the parts were ordered the first week of June but the original asus MB was dead so I got it refunded and upgraded to the Asus MVP which I am very happy I did. It was built and up and running on July 4th weekend.
