Just thought I would share my recent budget Folding@home build.  Not an eye catcher, by any means, in comparison to some of the beautiful works of art found in this part of the forum, but it folds non-stop.  Thanks for looking.

    Thanks for the compliments. Good eye on the keyboard and mouse combo. Swiped those from my always stylish G4 Cube. Yeah, I collect Apple Industrial Design as well. Don't tell my Twentieth Anniversary Mac, it might get jealous!

    Hello I have the same motherboard (Asus Z8NA-D6) and i want to buy as well the arctic freezer 7 pro2 coolers, cause i saw that they fit ok to your motherboard. But the thing is that my  Asus has a cpu backplate that can take only heatsinks with screws and not with push pins like freezer has. So i want to know how did you manage to install the 2 coolers. Thanks.
