      Build going well though, all in the case, cables tidied, one monitor linked up, booted first time , Mmmmmmm 2560 X 1440, Windows and a few drivers installed. Looking good so far, boots in 40 seconds.

      I nearly needed to take the french doors of their hinges to get the case in the house!!! Coolermaster HAF 932, it ain't small. Lots of room inside the case when building, which is good with my sausage fingers.

        Warcraft, give me a break. I've got a better system for my gaming, and I wouldn't touch Warcraft.

        This low spec one is wholly and exclusively for the use of my business, Excel, Word, Powerpoint, Access, SQL Server and Visual Studio 2010.

            To be honest, not adverse to Warcraft, I've never played it, but I am adverse to games where you have monthly fees whether you play or not.

            Vuse helped me when I was benched at the beginning of the year.

              Nearly 2 months after buying my new Company Desktop, and I have just repriced exactly the same components and for the first time ever, it cost £214 net more than when I bought it.

              Hard drives up by a shed load, any known reason for this, most other things are down by a quid or 2.

                £1000's in meals out

                A new tent with solar panels, weekend away trips, meals & booze and basically anything he likes.
