[Robbie]

Thanks, was unsure if a second was really needed . . but thought I would rather PCS add it in for me and test the stability than me mess it all up

 

[Killzoned]

Wow thats one HELL of a BEAST! hope you can handle it haha jking
Sli GTX 580 will last you a long time

 

[Robbie]

Haha thanks mate, if they don't burn out that is :x

Had an update the CPU that I upgraded from a 950 to a 960 and got a £2 refund (..wtf is that about??..) is out of stock and now I gotta wait until they get more stock... So not sure ho long it will be until I get to even see my PC.

 

[Roobarb]

Nice rig Rob. Specially graphics setup. Also, the Eco 240 is also outta stock. I am waiting on one.

 

[Robbie]

PC now in building stage on 04.03.2011.

*Fingers crossed there's no problem's*

 

[Meds]

As far as I can see, there are no stock alerts - should progress into testing nice & smoothly. It was about time those darn i7-960's arrived

 

[Roobarb]

Bah, I'm now waiting on the 2000 ram

Don't really care about the office cd, I can install that.

Gief the ram !

 

[Robbie]

Hehe, I'll have my PC by the time you get your RAM!

 

[Roobarb]

Pc dispatched oh now the wait.

 

[Robbie]

As soon as i get home I'll take some piccy's and put them up.. I CAN'T WAIT!!

Pull a sicky and take the afternoon off!
