What's wrong with AMD?
My specs are:
AMD x64 Dual Core CPU
M2N32-SLI Deluxe ASUS Mobo
2gig Crucial Ballistix RAM
EVGA 8800GTS 640mb VRAM
Zalaman CPU Fan
10,000rpm 150gig WD RAPTOR
SATA-Black Samsung DVD-CD Burner
OCZ GameXStream 700W PSU
Also, what's good about the Thermaltake Armor cases is that you could put the extra / non-needed cables behind the motherboard slot, that's why you see all the cables stacked on the top near the CD drive.

I could just tell it was amd when i saw it. I'm not a fan boy of intel nor amd, my rigs are what's best on the market by benchmark standards at time of purchase.

I was an AMD fanboy until I got stuck with these stupid RAM speed dividers, jeebus, if I have a funky multiplier it gets slapped down to 700MHz, and don't forget the crappy 5-5-5-18 timings. D:< But now that I have a 2.4 GHz Opteron X2 that doesn't matter, because the multiplier's an even number! yay 12x!. When I had my stupid 2.1GHz Brisbane, I got stuck with a 10.5x multiplier. (WTF?)
Now...subject relating to the picture: Nice green fan...

I posted a picture awhile back of the 3Dmark scores I got, I think they were like 11,000 which was a first for me. For the parts I had and being non-overclocked it's a very good score, I'm going to mod a new case with about 9-10 fans and a 240mm side panel fan and redo the scores because back when I did the test I only had about 3-4 fans and it was very poorly ventilated.
