Mostly Internet and email, bit of web design and also music production.

As i've only just got my 1st VERY OWN computer! I'm still investigating and trying to collect software together. I would like to do some graphics stuff, I've seen some art done with digital photos kinda put together in a collage but it looks like 1 photo...? Say like a pic of a road and then a pic of a car layered on top but it looks like a pic of a car on a road....? Im confusing myself! ANYWAY... Would like to play with that. Also would like to get into music production, but again I don't have any software at the moment. So really at the moment it's used for updating my Mp3 and Phone Mp3, playing games and trying desperately to get it to find the printer thats linked to the router!

I mainly use my computer for studying/typing up college work, surfing the web, chatting to friends, listening to music, watching movies and shopping

Oh and I love playing with settings :)

Well I'm back overclocking now, got my new rig pretty much all buttoned up, new mobo, new cpu, new gpu and new monitor.

3.6ghz here I come :D.

Am noseying around at water-cooling bits though, gonna price that up and do some plumbing.

What kind of rig did you get? Aiming for 3.6 I would say you bought a E6600 or something like that!

Got myself an Asus Commando mobo Social, very oc friendly. Also laid my mitts on a X6800 second hand. Too good a deal to pass up and no way was I going to pay retail for that cpu.

Was going to upgrade my monitor anyway (got a Samsung 244T) but due to the native resolution I needed a much more powerful card than the 7900, so I got a 640mb 8800GTS.

Nice, Wow with a native resolution of 1920x1200(I think) I nearly would have gone with the 768 just to be sure, if you game that is?
I was thinking about setting up water cooling myself, but I could never bring myself to spending that much money for a degree or to less over a good HSF, especially living in this part of the world were ambient temps aren't that high anyway, apart from this time of year!
But it does look pretty sweet though
