Aarrrgghh!!! (and no, im not being a pirate)
I have half of the bits for my new PC, and because of some initial payment problems, the etailer is out now of stock on some items, so the rest of my PC wont get here till wednesday next week.
It's so pretty, but i cant even use it yet! It kills me to even look at it
See what I mean?
I'm currently waiting on antec P180, NeoHE 500W, DVDRW, 250GB HD, XFX 7900GS, and my GPU RAMsinks and the vantec spectrum fan card.

Thats the idea
With some super pretty
tweakmonster ramsinks on the GPU memory, ive had a worrying thought though, there might not be enough clearance under the waterblock (MCW60)
Ah well, cross that bridge when I get to it

I just pulled the heatsinks off one of my dead bad axe revision 302 boards and plan on using them for video card ram sinks ;)

what ram are you using, there is some incompatibilities with OCZ and GSkill but there is a beta Bios over at XS that fixes it. If you come across those issues let me know, I'll be more than happy to PM or post it for you. And good luck with the wait. Once my paypal funds transfer over, its time for E6400 P5B and some sick teamgroup memory
