Still have yet to put in the RAM since it won't be here till tomorrow (ordered the wrong ones in the first pic had to send them back) and then i'll also put on the 2 fans on the Hyper 212+. Wished I had my normal camera during this as my Droid can't take pictures worth jack.

Looking good!

Athlonite · Mar 31, 2011, 10:54 PM

damn I wish we could get deals like that here but instead all we get is ripped off by retailers the cheapest I can find the procy here is $338.00NZD which works out to be USD $253.00

I picked this up today for 80 dollars, from my local Frys the box says 32 mb but it's really a 64 mb of cache. The amazing price is due to my local frys doing price matching, I priced it out online, amazon had it for 84 dollars, they matched then beat the price and payed the sales tax, so I got the hard drive for 80 dollars out the door.

didnt have the extra $40 to shell out atm... gonna test this out see if Im satisfied if not microcenter has a cool return policy I will exchange it for the K.

DanishDevil · Apr 2, 2011, 02:47 AM

They don't have a cool return policy for CPUs. IIRC, once the box is open, no returns on CPUs. Other stuff, yes but just make sure before you crack that seal.

Kast · Apr 2, 2011, 02:52 AM

I know this from experience did it a couple months ago and I was able to exchange no problems.

DanishDevil · Apr 2, 2011, 03:05 AM

Ok good. I know for a fact that the manager at my MC is a cold blooded bitch (at least if she's still there). Enjoy it, picking up a UD4 and 2500K myself tomorrow morning!
