    Just placed my computer order

    I had been trying to do some research lately. But it's been a madhouse at work and at home it's just sleep and get ready for next day. I tried to do some research going to the maximumpc.com website as I had for my last build and reading up on other tech sites and looking at some bench marks run for the AMD and intel cpu's. Hopefully I don't run into any technical issues while putting this pupppy together.

    1 AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core Processor

    1 OCZ Platinum 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2P10664GK -

    1 ZALMAN CNPS9900LED 120mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler -

    Nice, quad-core, new mobo, more RAM, and a better cooler.

    What are your reused parts?
