Just put together a build to sell. Took all of 30 minutes give or take. Now the long part...loading Windows and all of the GD updates.

Yep, that's the annoying part. I need to look into the Windows AIK.

yep, I just dropped 8.1 and loaded win7 ultimate. Literally just now.

Loading it and installing doesn't take as long as installing all the different utilities I use.

Downloading the updates is what takes me the longest. Shitty DSL speeds.

Yea I will do all of that tomorrow. Didn't feel like fooling with it.

Someone is about to get your 955 and Mobo with that 550Ti I got from Poncho. They might be able to get 60 FPS in solitaire.

Got the prodigy in today. Now I have left is a power supply, ram and video card. I'm probably going to stay video card-less until the new amd series comes out. Only game I'm playing right now is civ and that runs fine on my 3770k (I dont care about graphics for that game)

Edit: Power Supply and RAM have been purchased.

RAM

I just looked it up. It's made by Sirtec, which is a pretty solid manufacturer.

Nice. I see people with those or the fortress(I think)in their rigs all the time on OCN but never gave them a thought when purchasing.

The guide is nearly done. I've written all the sections, now I need to format and edit.

However, I also want to add a list of useful resources for part selection. PCPartPicker will be one. But I need more link suggestions -- things like Tom's Hardware's best [Part] for the Money articles, stuff that's general.

??? Never heard of that one, unless you meant to say anandtech and auto-correct didn't like it.

Auto correct apparently disliked it a lot. going from Swype to text on my phone to iOS typing is throwing me off.
