The biggest mod I've done to my cases was drill a bunch of holes in one side of the case.
 
Well, my two hdd's came back from RMA. After I exchange my Radeon 8500 for a new one, I'll be all set for awhile.

I think I've gotten my fill of hardware upgrades for awhile. I'm just gonna wait for some new games, like Serious Sam 2 and Unreal 2 to hit the shelves.

Well killed the p4 by messing up the heat spreader removal, and i was having a nightmare trying to get a new 1. I couldnt find anywere that had the 1.9ghz in stock and did next day delivery so i eventually had to cancel my first order for a 1.9 (which would have taken about a week!) and order a 2ghz instead that will arrive tomorrow. Wonder what a 2ghz will clock to, the 1.7 was able to run on a 125mhz bus, but i doubt the 2ghz will manage that Is that about the limit of the Willamette p4?

Not necessarily. It's just the top that Intel is gonna release it as. However, I think it may not be the greatest OC'r available, but you can always see about that.

Pimpin, maybe your overclocking is causing the lockup ? That temp isnt gonna cause an lockup, its fine. Try and get a program called prime95, just do a search for it, it has a torture test mode and finds even the smallest instability. If it can survive 30mins-1hour of that then its stable and the problem is elsewere.
