Side Pojects. Whatcha been working on?

I've been kind of busy lately around the house. We're having new Hickory hardwood floors put in and some trim work done. We will be going furniture shopping sometime this weekend. Also been moving my daughter and grand-kids into my mothers old house, several loads with my new trailer. Haven't had any time to work on the truck yet lately, hopefully sometime soon. My wife's computer decided to start crapping out lately. First the video card, then the rest of it. It's deciding to take a slow trip out, so I'm working on building her a new one. I'm going with an 8-core gaming machine this time around. I think she will really like it. If anyone is interested here a list of the parts that I will be using.

· COOLER MASTER HAF 922 RC-922M-KKN3-GP Black Steel + Plastic and Mesh Bezel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with USB 3.0 and Black Interior


· ASUS Crosshair V Formula-Z AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Gaming Motherboard with 3-Way SLI/CrossFireX Support and UEFI BIOS

I'm using the 750 watt power supply, her DVD Burner, and her 500gb hard drive that are already there and have been upgraded fairly recently.
