What Hardware Are YOU Getting For Xmas?

I'm also looking at possibly adding another 6GB of RAM now... I have no idea why other than its Christmas and I feel like treating myself. Gah.

I assume there is no real issue with mixing and matching RAM brands as long as its the same speed?
 
I had the components which is listed in my sig. Even though I built it a few weeks ago, that was cause I wanted to get the system together and run it to test it and check everything out before the xmas rush and iron out the kinks (well that is my excused to get it early to use it...lol)
 
I look forward to learning from your experiences clocking these, UD5 + 12gb has been doing my head in for weeks now.

I'm hoping to get water blocks for my UD5, hinted pretty strongly that this would be very good and tried hard to teach the missus enough for her to get the right ones. Otherwise I'm probably getting a usb stick.

Unfortunately I have noticed :( I'm not planning on any megaclocking, but if I could get to 4.0Ghz, I would be chuffed. I have been bookmarking all the threads involving overclocking with the UD5 recently, especially yours with the 12GB :)
 
Also looking to build new PC in the Jan sales ..not 100 sure yet but more than likely
I have a whole pile of friends who are trying to convince me not to because I can spend my money on better things but I really could do with one for video editing and games :D

I am hopefully going Phenom II with a 5850 in February.
 
None, although I'm still trying to find a 30Gb ssd. But no one seems to be selling these 2nd hand.. surly people must have upgraded to the newer faster models.. :(

I watched a program about how some nigerians were buying 2nd hand hard drives and recovering data and stealing bank money from the previous owner. I realize that the owner probably didn't do a 7 pass zero out of all data but still, it has put me off ever selling any of my hard drives.
 
I got some vouchers so trying to decide what to buy. pretty sure I'm gonna get a P5Q deluxe, but what do I spend the other £50 on?! Do I get 4Gb of 1066 ddr2 or add another 2Gb of 800? Or a Blueray drive? Fun decisions to make :D
