alright, got my computer today cept the monitors; apparently they will be in tomorrow so right now I am using a borrowed LCD 15" LOL. Im going to have to upgrade to a full sized motherboard soon; due to the size of the 5850 I can only use 2 Sataports.

<rant> Went into the store today and the only items for pickup were the PSU and the RAM which I took off their hands. The idiot owner of the store apparently has not even been into the store in about 3 days; the technicians do not even know where he is or how to contact him. The lowdown I got...

the owner just keeps making excuses. I worked as a computer store sales/tech and I know how the game works; this guy obviously doesn't know how to make customers happy and is just playing me.

Hi Seria :-) Nice set up you have there; any update (pics prehaps) have a good one :D

Nice build Muffin Man :-) far better than the prebuilt one.

new update. Still do not have my computer; apparently the motherboard and RAM were holding up the shipment from the suppliers warehouse; I have a rather large LAN this weekend so I hope to bring my new rig; 2 days for the parts to arrive but unfortunately even though New Zealand is smaller...

Dont worry :-) there will be pix.. lots of pix; its almost like a new baby is coming home LOL getting all prepared for the new borns arrival haha

the firmware issue has been sorted. I have had the same hard drive in my current rig for over a 15 months now and it is still going smooth.

Should be fine for cs :-) What are your results @ speedtest.net?
