nice work!

I think what thekingofpain was noticing was in the first picture - it looks like dust in front of the fan - on the heat sink -

great job - wizofid

ok specs

asus p3b-f motherboard with a p3-800 socket 370 via slotkey.
overlcocked to 960 will do 994 but that scares me. 768 megs of pc133 ram. 2 30 gig hard drives striped in windows xp and a dvd drive and a 12x burner.
there you go...not a 1 gigger but still works great!!
