Ohhh I cant wait for my parts to come in.

There's a specific reason why I didn't wait for new cards

yeah the only thing really stopping me right now is we are bundled with phone, and in this house our cellphones arent worth a damn. we will move eventually, and as long as i get reception in the new place i wont even bother ordering cable.
hell i have most of the components laying around the house - spare PSUs, RAM, etc. even a 1 TB 2.5 inch drive

im considering holding off on upgrading my PC until 2014 and sticking with AM3+ if they produce something worth a damn. id like to stick with AMD but they will have to show something when its time to build. i guess the games could come around and start actually making use of what AMD has to offer as well

I'm building something as well but I can't talk about it because I said I wasn't going to do it.

I was talking about building a new PC but decided to hold off. The bug hit me and now I'm in full swing with a new build.

I'm going a little crazy with this one. The good news is that if and when I decide to upgrade to Haswell I'll only need a motherboard and CPU. Everything else will be rock solid. I'll post pics when it's done but it will be a couple of weeks.

Sometime second quarter or even later. It's pretty vague right now.

Haswell will only get me upset because Ivy-E still won't be out.

Idk if I will upgrade to haswell. I'm saying that but I know I will want to test it out. They are suppose to OC like a dream. Intel has stated that is thier goal, to give over clockers more options on their unlocked chips.

I read Intel is pulling out of the Mobo market after their next release. Will we be missing anything?

I love Intel's skulltrails but the bios suck for OCers. They made a pretty decent x79 and z77 chipset last year.

I can't get the computer to power up. It is plugged in, psu switch is on, and I believe I have the power button connected correctly.
