Making the Power Tower Part 2

Hey guys it been a while since I mentioned about my PC tower. So here is the continuation of the building.
Here is the spec of the motherboard - Asus P5N-E SLI 650i Socket 775 PCI-E Onboard Audio ATX Motherboard.
The CPU is a Dual-Core Intel Xeon 3.0ghz.
Below is the image of fitting them in:

Ram - Corsair 4GB Kit (2x2GB) DDR2 800MHz
Hard Drive - Western Digital WD5000AAKB 500GB Hard Drive 7200rpm 16MB Cache
Graphics Card - EVGA 8800GT Superclocked 512MB GDDR3 DVI HDCP HDTV out PCI-E Graphics Card with Crysis game


Now that you seen the inside, though it's not completed . I need to sort out the cabling and I need to get some several stuff like DVD Drive and Lan Drive. But it's pretty much finished but I think there would be problems I would encounter.

Sigh... Why?

I think blogging helps grunting about things and it's basically stress free.

1st grunt: Why does Easter goes by so quickly?
2nd: Why does uni make me feel depress?
3rd: Why did uni make me feel drawing is boring now?
4th:Why is God is a cruel magician?
5th:Why am I getting lazy with uni work?

So yeah...why?
So tommorow is back to Uni. I think I got about 13 weeks left till I finish. Who knows? I got a deadline by the 14th-15th. And shamefully I didn't do much, guess that the 3 weeks of doing nothing was needed badly.

Games during Easter

Hello readers, I haven't blog at all like I surpose to do. and I apologise for it. Here are some games I've played in Easter.

The Darkness

Better than I expected. The art direction of the game is decent especially the subway, I really enjoyed the atmosphere of the subway. The level in Hell is wierd and freaky especially the Nazi soldier, bird man and the guy who tries to commit suicide.
But I really dislike the main character who likes a Goth and he's Italian mafia. Ok not the ideal appearence...
Also why do 2K Games developer make the same long hair character for shoot-em-up. Hint hint 'Prey', come on they could at least offer original design.
Also the beginning was so stupid, the main character takes so long to reload and use the shotgun. I found the auto head locking rather easy for the gameplay. The load time takes a while, though the game is based on a graphics Novel, the story is okay and the main them is about vengence. So expect a sequel like most games developers do.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Probably my favourite game in Easter I've played. The story was short but the experience was amazing and the gameplay was glourious. My most rememberable bit is where you control as the president and you witness terrorist captures you and the surrounding was believeable. Secondly the second character you play in the story mode dies in a Nuclear bomb was cool. Shamefully the story is short but the online feature is the best thing I've played. The ranking system is originally and I like the idea of obtaining cool weapons when you rank up. Shamefully there is much of a tactical round.

Devil May Cry 4

I haven't completed this yet but I can honestly tell that I can rate this now. First I like to say that the cutscene are amazing and the martial arts chrolography outdone himself.
When I first seen the trailer I was expecting abit more story but it turned out I was wrong...
But the female cast are hot suchas as Gloria,Trish and Lady.
