i feel like im seeing the same pictures/information over and over.



Look BUD, it's ok for YOU to post many many build posts...but I post one...that actually encompasses two upgrades, and you have issues with it ?!?

Yes I post some pics over and over...it's a LOT easier than typing what the person asks....ya know a picture paints a thousand words.

Anyways...about to run Unigine Valley and see how badass this card really is....runs a hell of a lot cooler than the GTX 580 did...so far, I'm muy impressed :D

HEY BUD
I have 4 threads dedicated for each specific build - and combined they don't total 33 pages :rofl: especially for TWO UPGRADES

Perhaps it's my OCD kicking in, but your style of typing fucks me off.

Well I broke down and decided on the Klipsch Pro Media 2.1 speakers...order right from Klipsch.

http://www.klipsch.com/promedia-2-1-computer-speakers

Also, on of my brand new WD Caviar Black 1TB's died...after two weeks....so I'm RMAing it..to WD...even tho I could just RMA at Newegg...I feel, that if I RMA with WD...and everyone does the same...they'll get QC back up to pre-flood standards.



/edit Also ordered Cordless Milwaukee Drill-driver, /w 2 batteries and charger, set of brad point bits, and a set of brad pointed spade bits...to do my desk and hutch ...modding :)

The surge protector IS fairly new...and yes the natural color of the wall is cream...but 12 years of smoking ciggs have taken their toll :)


Also...I ordered a 12x12" Granite/felt bottom Trivet for my new desk...to use as a big coaster for ashtray, coffee cup, etc.





Pics of other crap I ordered...

Well, my Milwaukee came today and at least one set of the bits...





...so now, I can house the keyboard and mouse where they are supposed to be :)





...and tomorrow if all goes well...at the latest Thursday I should have the Hutch built and installed :)



/edit ...btw that Newegg sticker, is proving difficult to remove...made of super sticky stuff :/

Update:

Hutch delayed until Friday or the weekend...simply because, the size of this apt. forces me to finish what I start or I don't have room to move around. Also Klipsch Speakers will be here Friday :D

/e ...and I may need to make modifications for them as well ....much easier to do BEFORE the unit is assembled :)

/edit ...also got a new bottom of the line Cricket "dumb phone" ...and the ONLY plastic slip on protective cover they have in the store or online...is a pukey orange pink :/

/ee Ofc, I had to get it....now just to figure out how to make it matte black ^^
