HAHA... I bet they will love that one :0

Sheesh I cant put 20 words together let alone 200

Has to be up to 200 words... 25 will work! ;)

Sorry guys, but you can not plate in 18 carat. The plating process uses gold that is in solution and the process of electrolysis deposits the gold ions on the surface of what you are plating as pure gold, ie 24 carat gold. 18 carat gold is made by melting pure gold and then adding other metals to it.

Corsair told me 18K, so I'll call them and double check tomorrow. Thanks for the insight

Well it seems one of these kits is for sale over at HardOCP for $1,580 -- how the guy figured out that price I don't know, but if you want to check it out for yourself look here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1148962



Kinda cool he linked to my article in the post ;)

Holy Crap!!!

For that price, the rig should fly like a magic carpet, do the dishes, babysit, and act as a time machine!

I guess that's the price we pay for cutting-edge technology.

I would underclock them a little bit and go for really tight timings...if only I had three or four grand laying around somewhere so I could get 4 gigs!!

I forgot I wrote that email, and laughed at my own joke. haha.
