Happy, happy, joy, joy (for any one who remembers Ren and Stimpy)

I'm going to party down tonight boys - some hot soup, a little prune juice and maybe an extra Ativan. Oh yeah. Do I know how to live or what?

What chip did you get?
I went with the i7 960. Couldn't justify jumping to the 970 with bills to pay.

Fedex AND UPS didn't deliver today (parents gave me the go ahead to build them a rig). They literally say "will deliver next business day" on their status. LAME.

Definitely! This is the best time to buy parts but the worst time to ship or in our case wait patiently for our parts!

At first I thought it was due to the fact that i was using Process Lasso to throttle anything starting with wcg* - but I turned off the throttling and I'm still getting these estimates. IDK, it probably just hasn't revised the estimates yet.

Looks like it's only for the WU with the E2008XX_ prefix. All the E2009XX_ prefix WU's are 6-11 hours.

I didn't know I was going to sell it until I broke down and bought the ASUS Rampage III Extreme this last week. The Sabertooth is a great X58 motherboard for the price!!!

Yeah, Asus is like going to gramma's house. You always feel safe and warm there. Some of these other characters like Asrock and Gigabyte can look a little shady at times.

Agree! I have had the EVGA, MSI, AsRock and Gigabyte X58 boards ~ but ASUS is by far my favorite

Hey guys, unfortunately I haven't been able to crunch for the past few days. My processor is running very hot even at stock clocks and powers off if I crunch. I've ordered a water cooling kit which comes in on the 5th. after that I'll OC it and resume crunching. Also I'll move my h50 to the folding/crunching rig, OC it and start crunching on it too.

Don't worry bro, it happens. I'm putting up with insane amounts of heat right now in my room, I honestly don't know how much longer I can take this. My buddies don't even want to come over anymore.
