Congratulations and you might want to blow the dust out of the CPU heat sink while you have it open. :)

I suggest rotating the picture or the computer 90 degrees clockwise.

Yes, I figure if I upgrade anything else a power supply upgrade will also be in store.

Funny, my 6870 was supposed to arrive today, well it did...and it was DOA.  :bhead Guess it wasn't a total disaster as I found out that it barely fits due to my heatsink which was barely half an inch to the side. Once I get the refund, I'm buying a 6850 single slot. Darn it, and I was looking forward so much for today.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.
