Same thing happened under XP. So I know its not linux. More then likely LG just has the TV setup this way. Not a big deal to me. I don't have any problem with it personally I just wanted to throw it out as a warning. I am just going to get a longer VGA cable.

It's an o-ring that I'm going to use to fill in the gap and bow the D-tek Fuzion cpu block with.

I'm going to wait to get the gpu and mobo last. I've already figured that part out lol. I've gotten everything for the water cooling now, so prices and things can change with the normal parts of the rig.

I'm pretty set on the Evga 680I mobo though, I'm not really interested in DDR3 and non SLI. I'd like some room to upgrade if need be.
