So it's been a while, I was planning a full re-build soon but due to a couple of car deaths in the family the bank roll has shrunk considerable. Actually, it was only that the insurance company paid out generously that this is happening at all.
Some of you may remember my antec 1200 from my dedicated folding rig:

The arrival of the smart meters meant the death of that guy. I pieced it out but just couldn't bear to part with the case. Figured this is a perfect opportunity for it's return while I slowly prep my TJ07 for a paint job and water cooling job this summer.
Picked up piece numero uno today:
and popped it into the case to see how it fits:
I marked off where the wiring is going to go, I'm going to try and put as much as possible behind the mobo. Future plans include new RAM/CPU/GPU! Woohoo!
P.S. I know that a 2600k upgrade is nothing special right now but demmit, I'm excited so I'm doing a build log!
