Thanks fear. Imma take a look at those sennheisers. Might be exactly what I'm looking for. Not a fan of Sony or skullcandy in general.

 

[MrCooperS]

I have a couple of sets.

AKG K81 (Uncomfortable for long term wear, sound is good. Good bass. But sound leaks.) $50 to $70

Bose OE (Comfortable, sound is ok, but it leaks) $140 to $170

Bose IE (Ok for beating around, better then regular iPod headphones, a bit of leakage) $100 to $120

Shure 115 (Sound is absolutely sharp. Not very much bass. Good noise isolation) $100 to $120

I think I'm going to get a set of Shure 535 next since I can get them half off. Around $500 but I can get them for around $250 new.

I want to get a new set of cans too, but haven't decided yet. I've heard good things of the AKG 702s. $250 to $270

@ Dan - UV Sterlilizers are very cool. I thought about getting one, but for the type of planted tank I have I'm not sure if its a good idea... it might kill too many nutrients and might cause a die-off. I wish my water was that clear though How much did yours cost roughly?

@ Mr. Cooper - The 702's are very cool headphones... I'm hoping I don't regret settling on the senn 595's over them.

@ Crystal84 - Very cool system, I like the NZXT case

.... do you know that NVIDIA just released their 560Ti video cards a few days ago?

Good choice on the ram though! For my system atleast, it didn't post at 1600 mhz, make sure its running to spec in your BIOS.

Also, once your system is all up and running you should post some benchmarks. I'll be putting up some PC mark benches for mine tomorrow if I can find some time. It would be nice to compare against a new i5 versus my Phenom II X6

^don you mean?

You'll need the following links:

http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Windows-Media-Encoder-Download-1393.html


also make sure to close all your windows including MSN or the test will fail -_-, PC mark is so finnicky.

lol and don't ask me why I went with PCMark05, it was the first thing that came to mind and its a tiny program

Here you go

 

[fearless_fx]

ouch

I think having an SSD probably made a huge difference in the scores.

The new i5's are definitely impressive too though.

got them awhile back because of the lights i have that builds up algae so fast.....like under a bill? don't quite remember
i don't think you'd need one but i think you should fix up the floating plants :laugh2: cause it's blocking the light to your other plants hahah

your denison barbs aren't harassing the discus?

good point! lol not the best place to put my discus since they're so sensitive and the barbs are so speedy
had them for a while and they're living peacefully so far :laugh:
