None of the above, currently I am using a Saitek Cyborb Gaming keyboard :thumbs-up: . That replaced my Logitech G15. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16823175005 But I am waiting for the release mid May on the Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard, by then I should have the money saved for it, since it will be around $199 and up.

Get a Hair Dryer and heat it up at where CPU and Heat Sink are joined together. Make sure you are holding it over something soft for it to land on if it does fall apart on its own. :thumbs-up:

I would stay away from the Tt V9 Black Edition. First off it is very flimsy and chaeply made. Secondly it has raised area to mount your motherboard instead on using Standoff and lastly it requires you to mount PSU with Fan down and only has about 1/2 inch clearance to whereever you set case at. On the Nzxt Tempest. It also makes you mount PSU with Fan in downward position. IMHO I would look at either of the two following Mid Towers, they are built better then previous two and if you have the money to spare I would suggest the CoolMaster HAF. :thumbs-up: Thermaltake Armor+MX VH8000BWS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16811133062 COOLER MASTER RC-690-KKN1-GP http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16811119137 COOLER MASTER HAF 932 RC-932-KKN1-GP http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16811119160

There are 4 Brands on NewEgg for the GTX295. Evga, Asus, BFG & Zotac, ranging in price of $499.99 to 509.99. http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....rce%20GTX%20295

You could check out Bush-Furniture-Online http://www.bush-furniture-online.com/?gcli...CFQEoGgodBjXbDg But you will be paying a premium price. Another way to go is to Build your own. Buy piecing together angle countertops from Lowe's. http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=prod...Ntt=countertops Then buy 2 under keyboard drawers and connect then to countertop.

Both will work. Only the Gigabyte board will come with SLI Bridges. Will you be water cooling the GigabyteX58 Extreme board, if not would suggest you get GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD5 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail $298.99 :thumbs-up: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813128362

Saw price for it last week and Thermaltake recommended price is $799. Plus it will only work on certain motherboards and you will have to give up using long length graphic cards in top slot. http://xtreview.com/addcomment-id-6477-vie...erformance.html http://www.xpressar.com/product/rsc100/rsc100-features.html http://www.xpressar.com/product/rsc100/rcs100-spec.html#1

Also the Saitek Cyborg Keyboard and its going for 68.95 @ NewEgg right now. :thumbs-up: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16823175005 Which the new Saitek Eclipse III is taken off of the Cyborg keyboard with some slight cosmetic changes. http://www.saitekusa.com/prod/keyboards.htm

Go with this one, the SAMSUNG 22X DVD

On my Tech Station case it is daily to keep the dust from accumulating and on my enclosed case it is about every 2 weeks. :thumbs-up:

Or go with the NEC Display Solutions ASLCD24WMCX-BK Black 24" 5ms HDMI Widescreen LCD Monitor 400 cd/m2 1000:1 Built in Speakers - Retail $399.99 :thumbs-up: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16824002359

Are you using Bitdefender Anit-virus, seems on suspicious files it adds "bd.ren". Here is a link that explains what it is and how to fix it. http://www.technize.com/2008/03/27/bitdefe...files-to-bdren/ Hope this helps you out. :thumbs-up:

You also should look at either the new Samsung or Dell 23" monitors. The Samsung 2343BWX 23" Wide DVI 5ms 1000:1 300 cd/m

Also if you can wait a month or so, the new the QWXGA 2048
