Have any of you ever built your own computer? My husband just built his first one and it actually has a liquid cooling system running through it. It looks like some sort of alien space craft equipment. It's really cool. Share your specks or whatever you feel like sharing!

Liquid cooling system would be awesome to have!!!
I've built a few, but I guess have just become lazy or have found better deals for computers recenntly.
My husband got a free ibookG4 for completely his graphic design program, and with some graduation money, he bought me a computer.
We're thinking on building one for hte kids one of these days here...soon :)

I never have and probably wouldn't even know where to start to do it. Hubby has built his own before and he seems to understand that part of computers alot better than I do. He's been talking about building another but I don't know if he will.

Woah. Your husband built his FIRST one? Or has he done it before? Using liquid cooling in your first rig is pretty amazing. You can clock your stuff up like 0.5x!!! My computers pretty old now... I'm thinking about upgrading it. So far I'm satisfied with my 320 GB drive and 4gb's of ram. My cpu is a 2.33 ghz dual-core which is starting to get kinda ancient. My 7600 gt is still in my computer because I'm clocking it to 600 with aftermarket cooling. Uhm. That's about all the important stuff... what are your specs?
