Watch your shite work right off the bat while I'm still struggling with mine! I'm about to bribe some geek squad employees with some free Hooters to check my shite out.

This is my first build. I am going to start on it tonight but it might take a while because I want to do it exactly right. I have all of the guides from the subreddit buildapc, the newegg videos, and a bunch of stuff about overclocking. And I have far cry 3 on steam to play first

i would let the computer run for about 30 days before touching the OC. dont want to invalidate any newegg return on a faulty item!

~$1,100 I probably couldve saved a few more bucks but I elected to get everything but the case from amazon. I have prime and got it shipped all in one box, arrived in 2 days. pcpartpicker had me buying from like 5 different stores

Desk is awesome. It survived 2 years of college and 3 moves since then.

I don't blame you. I ordered a monitor from best buy and it is going to take 2 weeks. Only reason I didn't go amazon was because I had a best but gift card.
