I think I mixed up something in the address since it looks very unfamiliar to me. The person receiving never really explained neither, but not to blame him. We both fucked up I would say.

Yeah it's laughable, it was an attempt at helping somebody get a cruncher going I only lost $24 and the person receiving lost nothing so no big deal.

i explained it to you, but you must have forgotten.
my customs sent it back, because it wasnt declared as "present". they accused me of having bought it new, and wanted the tax for that (also i would have had to move 300km without car, just to show them documents i never had in my possession)
sorry for wasting your money CP

Thanks for the kind words on the set up.

as for the wait till sunday.. I've been on the Green side for a while since I didn't feel the 4xxx was a good enough investment on my part. So, I'm testing to see if I really want a 5xxx card.. I have nothing but love for ATI, just making sure on my part.

Haha, my friend is looking for a new case so I've linked him pictures of your rig. And a quote:
"This rig rocks the shit out of my ass" So I'm not the only one who likes it.

Ok I get it, take your time. I hope you'll be very pleased with your results. It is a beast you know.

EDIT: I'm just curious - was it a tight fit to install the 5870 in this Raven?

That Raven is a really nice design. I wish more case designers were into keeping things simple, elegant, and innovative.
