Spinpoint F1 Ecogreen S-ATA – 1000 Go – 32 Mo due to a hard drive failure.) - Gigabyte GV-NX86S256H – 256 Mo TV-Out/Dual DVI – PCI Express (NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS)

The only compromise I made was not changing the CPU fan, and I’m not sure I’ll do it unless I’ll be interested in some overclocking. I replace the intel cpu cooler by a Zalman CNPS7700-Cu which is totaly noiseless when then speed is set to the mimimum.
The graphic card works well for my gaming need, My biggest game is Command and Conquer 3 which is fluid in full hd, with details to the max (I can push the antialiasing to much anyway).
The good :
- Noise less
- The screen, but it’s now impossible to find it, It make me sad because I’d like to move to a dual screen configuration and it would have been looking great with two of this screen on my desk.
- All the hardware works out of the box under ubuntu. (I’ll probably switch to gentoo some day).
The bad :
- I guess nothing because I choose every piece of her, I made her to my taste.
