Major decision....

For a loss of about 1/2 the cost of the Hutch, I've decided to just return it. Yes, I could easily mod it to work, but from dealing w/o the extra storage, I've found that I really don't need it.
Probably would have been smarter to just order the desk first....then decide if I wanted the Hutch, but hindsight is 20/20 :/



So all this, isn't gonna happen....








I'm keeping the two dual cabinet fans though, I'm sure I'll use them some day :)

Hutch cost $196.xx and to return it I'll lose like $96 for shipping and restocking.

I don't know the end price, as I spent a month ordering etc...then had bad mobo....so bought a 2nd one...still have to RMA the 1st one.

Only things that came from old comp are: Case, Power Supply and DVD Burner



/e Total Cost was: approx. $2700 including the 30" Dell, the Ducky Shine II, the GTX 680, and the Klipsch Speakers.

/ee ...as far as OCing goes...I'll probably just do a small CPU OC, like 4.6Ghz. Even with no OC, it does everything fast and easy. But, I'm not exactly playing Crysis 3 on it either ;)
