oh wow...Xenforo!!!
Use a mousepad. Those teflon mouse feets get damaged pretty easily. It will be a shame. Even those Rs. 15 decent enough mouse pads do, unless you want something which has a good mouse pad and grips.

Just letting everyone know:
In 880GM-UD2H Rev 1.3, there's some weird slow boot during GUI bootup (installing/booting). All you need to do is disable HPET- That's it!!!

6GB/s, but the diff in performance isn't huge.
HDDs aren't even using the SATA2 to the fullest.

congrats to you and your friend.
But seriously he should consider visiting other shops from next for better prices or else he would be duped like this always. Anyway those pics look really great and the blue lighting of that PSU is really cool - a good choice by you for visual pleasure.
I know SSD gives some really great access times and the read/write speed is also great but I suggested 2x HDDs in RAID0 to accommodate those HD6950 in price bracket as even without a ssd drive 2x HD6950 will outperform 2x HD6870 anytime.
BTW, as the prices have fallen I'm re-configuring the 120K SLI/Crossfire Gaming Rig with perfect balance of every components with updated prices - I think this will make all of you happy :
Intel Core i7 950 @ 13.3k
ASUS Sabertooth X58 @ 11.5k
Noctua NH-U12P SE2 @ 3.8k
Corsair DDR-III Memory 6GB Kit [ 3 x 2 GB ] Model TR3X6G1600C9 @ 4.5k
Powercolor HD6950 2GB x 2 @ 35K
Seagate 7200.12 1TB @ 2.7k
Corsair force 60GB SSD Drive @ 8k
LG 22X SATA DVD @ 0.9k
Corsair HX750W @ 8.5k
CM 690 II Advanced @ 5.5k
DELL Ultrasharp U2311H @ 13.7k
Razer Death Adder @ 2.2k
Logitech G110 @ 3.1K
APC 1000VA @ 5K
Altec Lansing VS4121 @ 2.9k
Total : 120.6K

Jas, i think you shouldn,t do that. Most people buy expensive rigs without spending on a good quality ups cause they don't take uninterrupted power that seriously which in turn also affects the longevity of the system components.
A person buying rig 60k or above should invest in a good ups as they also have surge protection functionality and minimize voltage spikes.
In fact i don't recommend anyone to use a desktop without a good ups.

I am talking of miscellaneous section. Spoiler depend on poll.

Oops, I ain't using a UPS. Had one for my old C2D, but it's just 300W. I purchased a Belkin Gold Series surge protector for my new rig, still do I need a UPS? (Have inverter in my home)

@ ithehappy
Hmm, inverter is okay but i still suggest you to go for a 1kv ups specifically for your system as the inverter might be powering other components in your house. Try getting your hands on an APC 1000VA UPS for around 5k and you are good to go. The belkin surge protector is great for preventing voltage spike so use that too to connect multiple devices.
@ jaskanwar singh
Great rigs Jas. Just change the entry level altec lansing bxr1121 to logitech z313 @ 1.4k. Lot better than altec bxr and i am currently using them. Performance is very good and the speakers produce good sound and are very compact.

If you are talking about high resolution gaming then Spending 2k more for low latency modules won't give you much performance in games - you will hardly get 1-2 fps more - so to keep it under budget I've suggested to go for those rams.
Look at the difference between 1066MHZ C9 and 1066Mhz C7 modules :

ishu its a nice one. thanks.
topgear its perfect. just remove the ups. i will add it in miscellaneous as in digit mag.
also consider mushkin callisto deluxe 60gb @ 8.7k
hows this format -
personally I think UPS ( and it's price ) should be added on the rigs total budget as a compulsory item not in the misc section.
Corsair Force 60GB and mushkin callisto deluxe 60gb both has sandforce SF-1200 controller and spec wise both are same - both comes with same warranty period as well - so what's the point of spending 0.7k more.
