You're all going to hate me:

DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR

1gig Muskin Redline XP4000 (@ DDR 500 2.5-3-3-5)

Inno3d GeForce 7800GTX

Cant remember what the clock speed of the processor is at, i think its 2.5Ghz (250FSB x10), got the RAM running @ 3.4V (its rated to 3.6V, mental stuff). My hypertransport is set to 5x and is therefore running at 2500MT/s. The fan on the HSF barely turns at all (600rpm usually)
