Fred builds his first PC

I've modified them before here and there, but never actually bought a set of bits and built a whole one.
Build spec (no hysterical laughing) :
Some pics of the cute little case :
etc...
This should have twice the power my EEE has which should be more than enough.
So long as I can watch top gear vids on it, I don't care too much :-)
I won't get the parts till monday or tuesday or so even though I would like to have it up and running by Tuesday morning... I'll be needing it from now on for a while due to change of projects. Apparently I was so good at work a couple of managers were fighting over me. Poor communication FTL.
