I'm pretty happy with my PC, even though it set me back quite a bit 
. I'll post the system build here again for reference:
. I'll probably swap in the graphic card for a Direct X 10 card next, though. I bought the case and graphics card about a year ago in light of getting an SLI setup, when there was no mention of Direct X 10 yet or even Vista - total bummer in retrospect . Running Vista Home Premium on my system ATM without any problems so far, BTW. Temps and noise are very reasonable too (currently 43°C CPU, 32° ambient and 43° GPU on idle; around 45° when running games)
