Well sure there were a few people who had trouble with the PSU that came in the mail for them (probably more due to shipping and handling) but it wasn't nearly as much as a "hit or miss" situation as with other PSUs, like the one willdill suggested.


Yeah red, probably considered the top online retailer for computer hardware and maybe software. Why don't you just get a good sized TV to play on instead of a monitor? scratch

Ordered the 2nd half of my order from Amazon tonight--free 2 day shipping with Amazon prime Smile Will arrive Thursday Very Happy

First half of my order from newegg had some complications with the shipping, but UPS was great in fixing it--will arrive tomorrow.


Already picked up Hard drive and dvd drives.




But the OS--its OEM build and not the full retail one--does that mean the license is tagged to the motherboard of the system and you can still upgrade parts, just not the motherboard or does it mean the license is tagged to the entire hardware configuration meaning you cannot upgrade anything?

All the parts came, built the computer, installed Windows, did all the updates, etc.  For the past 10-15 minutes I have been downloading BF3  Smile

I won't have it downloaded until midnight or so (EST).

EDIT: Getting 2.5 MBps (20Mbps) on BF3, atm I have 22% done.

Yeah already built Razz And $780 would have been too much, built mine for $640 but I also have $40 in rebates I can redeem.

Hey guys I have a question about choosing a GPU. Very Happy 

My question is what is more important in a GPU the Core Clock or the Memory Size?

...and if you had to choose what would you prefer:

Memory Size: 2GB
Core Clock:    650MHz

or

Memory Size: 1GB
Core Clock:    800MHz

I would say core clock. My graphics card is 2Gb but is easily out powered by a 1Gb card. read this too, it may help http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/gaming/18150-what-gets-you-more-fps-higher-gpu-core-clock-memory.html
