My best time on medium difficulty in Minesweeper is about 75 seconds, and 12 seconds on easy using the touch-pad on my laptop, so that is a first hurdle to beat

Finally recieved my replacement Corsair H80, which means that I'm able to use my new system, yay! (I was way too lazy to install the stock cooler while I waited for the replacement H80.)
On another note, I just ordered a Filco Ninja Majestouch-2 (Swedish/Finish layout) with Cherry MX Blue switches along with a leather wrist rest. Can't wait for it to arrive as it will replace the crappy rubber-dome keyboard I'm stuck with at work.
Cherry Blue? Aren't those really loud and clicky?

Since moving to custom water cooling, I decided to try pushing my overclock on my 2500k a bit higher...
Stability testing it ATM, temps peaked at 83C with IBT running, Prime 95 is running atm, hasn't gone over 75C
Nice one Adappy, how long have you been going so far?
Ordered my LAN/HTPC rig yesterday, specs are as following
XFX RADEON HD 6850
Fractal Design Arc Mini
Antec EarthWatts EA-550
Intel Pentium G850
Kingston HyperX 2x 8GB
ASRock H61M
Total price: $625, I'm moving to Denmark on the 12-13th of June & Dreamhack starts 16th of June, so I've got a few days to assemble it
I will create a build thread once I move, since I will build a computer for ~$2000 as my main PC after I've been to Sweden for a couple of weeks & going to Dreamhack etc etc

I would have suggested the Fortress FT02B-W, the one Marest has. It's essentially the same exact thing, but far better build quality, and made of aluminum instead of cheap steel. =/ If you can change the order by chance, I would - I was at first thinking of buying a Raven RV01, then an RV02, then ||Demon|| was like, silly Deltrus, and told me all about the Fortress FT02B-W and I checked out some reviews, and it definitely seemed more worth the money and higher build quality.
The Ravens are like SilverStone's cheaper-end cases, with the Fortress then being a next step up, going from steel to aluminum, and then from there, to the TemJin chassis series.
I own an FT02...only the exterior front/rear/bottom is aluminum. The rest is rolled steel.
Aluminum is lighter...that's its only advantage. Steel has better tensile strength and is much less brittle. The only time I'd care about getting an aluminum case is if I plan on moving it a lot. For example I'd rather have a Reynolds steel tubing road/MTB than an Easton aluminum one... Now if someone built a titanium case, I'd be all over that...
Let's just say there's a reason why office buildings, bridges, and other modern structures are made of riveted/bolted steel. Aluminum doesn't have any give...it weakens every time it's bent/flexed. Titanium and steel are much more ductile and will not suffer structural weakening unless under extreme bends.
'Doh. Why didn't I think of that.... I guess I wonder the quality of the steel computer chassis manufacturers use.... I really wonder sometimes with the HAF X I have sitting here.
Good luck finding the FT02B-W in Denmark Drunken =/ They only have the first & B-EW version.

Ugh, I hate how companies list it as 8x3600mhz, as if it runs at 28.8ghz. -_-
Also,
- The PSU is unnecessarily high in output.
- The 7750 is a very weak card and a ripoff for the price.
- Don't understand the need for BluRay drives outside of an HTPC.
I hope that was some promo deal...
