The postman turned up today with my new toys...Am a very happy boy

I been praying that my order would come before the weekend so i can upgrade my rig with my new toys and play with it over the weekend..

It been about 3 years from the last time i did a big upgrade to my PC.
so i wonder if i can go another 3 years before upgrading this CPU & motherboard..

(The only other item i want is a SSD drive which am waiting till next month to order either the new intel one or a Crucial C400 )

Funny you say this...

As this was the very reason why i picked this cooler,as it meant to clear the first ram slots on most boards..

That's the same mobo, CPU and RAM combo I've been spec'ing myself if I were to upgrade.

Let me know how you get on!
