A little too early, half past 7 I had city clink knocking on the front door. :eek:

Nice surprise though.

Thanks must go to OC for their speedy, reliable service, you've surpassed my expectations yet again.
And a special thanks to Gibbo for help with the selection of these parts.
Suppose I'd better fix the stang now hey.

Cheers guys.

You won't be disappointed with the monitor and graphics card - what's the mobo?

DreXeL · 18 Sep 2006 at 12:11

Looking good Andy, just ordered my conroe rig today, i should have a similar pile of bits tomorrow

BTW are you guys still scared of rotary's?

Is a Radeon 1900xt/1950xt series of cards enough to run the games at full settings at full res on that monitor? Having trouble deciding whether to go crossfire you see. Cheers. Good luck with the rig btw.

Yes its a great feeling when you get a parcel full of PC parts, a lot like Christmas like you say.

Enjoy the build :cool:

I'll be looking forward to Wednesday when all my bits arrive

I actually find it more rewarding/exciting building the dam thing than I do playing on it, :confused:

then after a week or three I get sick of tweaking (especially installing windows :mad:

) then just wanna use it for what it was bought for .

AMDX23800+ · 18 Sep 2006 at 21:47

Niceee!!!! :eek:

And Trill, Nice choice of headphones :cool:

Tony Williams · 18 Sep 2006 at 22:35
