New PC, yay!
I got a job for three months from July to September so I wouldn’t just bum around until I get into university.

Mainboard: Asus P5B-VM SE
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 (2.4GHz)
Fan: Scythe MINE 1100 (Rev B)
RAM: 4×512 MB Kingston
Power supply: Enermax PRO82+ 385W
HDD: 4×500GB WD5000ABPS and a backplane for them -> RAID5
