This is the best packaging I have ever seen. The PSU even comes on a velvet bag. Wires are nicely wrapped and in it's own bag. Baby is doing ok on the monitor ;)

Stress testing the processor at 99% usage with a conservative overclock to 4. Ripped DVD in under 20 minutes outputting the file through the network to the 10TB NAS. Processor temp stays around 50c (20 minutes pegged at 99%) and dropped straight down to under 30c when done.
