It wasn't that I wasn't thinking hard enough, I just didn't have the knowledge that GK110 is so close.

I honestly expected you to say GTX690 or HD7990.

Wrigleyvillain · Oct 11, 2012, 11:24 PM

Yeah...though he did say "truly something special" not just "something insanely powerful" or what have you.

Well it's not a done deal yet, so it may end up being a 690 . ..

We'll see, as I said it's not a done deal, I'm trying to convince them that I "need" an ES.

Yeah, make sure they know it needs to be cherrypicked too, lol.

You lucky SOB

Can't wait to see more benchies and hear when/if you get any free swag from your old company.

Well all ES's are cherry picked usually, as well as voltage unrestricted

.

But we'll see.

Board and PSU came...fast shipping, man, less than 48 hours.

It manages to look cute and badass all at the same time!

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 13, 2012, 04:50 PM

I liked them but they charge me tax

and for as close as we are, shipping is not too quick

But I do think they're a solid company

Looking forward to seeing your toys!

Well on a very sad note, my grandmother, passed away @ 5:33 AM this morning in my arms, she will be dearly missed by many people. I want to thank ya'll for being supportive and patient with my thread crapping about personal problems.

All that said, I will be throwing myself at this project.

So updates incoming.

Sorry to hear about your loss. My grandfather (92) passed away in the spring. I am glad you were able to be with her.

That means a lot, I am having a terrible time sleeping perhaps, some pics of some of the things that came in during my absence, will help with that.

I know it doesn't mean much coming from a faceless screenname, but I'm very sorry for your loss. I know it all too well, only one of my grandparents is still around. At least you can go on knowing she is no longer sick or in pain.

That said, I look forward to the rest of this project and the little touches you give it for your grandmother.

Wrigleyvillain · Oct 15, 2012, 02:20 PM

In a loved ones arms is pretty much the best way to go. Don't get too drunk.

Athlonite · Oct 15, 2012, 03:43 PM

you have my condolences [H] it's a hard thing to have someone you love dearly pass away in your arms, I know my Dad died in mine and it took me awhile to get over it.......

PopcornMachine · Oct 15, 2012, 03:54 PM

Sorry to hear that.

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 16, 2012, 08:05 AM

Okay so after the Broncos game (which was an amazing one!) I was able to snap some picks of some of the goodies that showed up while I was in Wyoming.

To protect all this nice new stuff, a nice new surge protector!

And as I am still on the hunt for a new mouse to replace my X8, I present the Taipan (yes and the collectors edition of prometheus).

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 16, 2012, 08:14 AM

unboxing, and such to follow come morning.

MxPhenom 216 · Oct 16, 2012, 08:18 AM

Hey how do you like the case? My dad and I are thinking about doing a fun project and creating a small Virtual Machine Host and domain name server and I was thinking of looking at this case for it

I love it, it has plenty of room to work with, and with support for 5 + hard drives, and great air flow, it would make a great server case, Intel even makes an 1155 mini-itx server board, my old place of employment used to use those boards their quite good, but the case is amazing, and very well priced IMO.

I was going to get an Asrock Z77 ITX board. But that one looks pretty good too.

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 16, 2012, 06:38 PM

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 16, 2012, 07:55 PM

I'll start with the mouse.

More to come.

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 17, 2012, 02:44 AM

Well because that wasn't enough new stuff I went to Fry's again!

[H]@RD5TUFF · Oct 17, 2012, 02:53 AM
