Best. Day. Ever. (The Rig has arrived) 56k*

So i slept in to about 12:00 or so today, to be woken by my doorbell being annoyingly and repeatably rung. So i drag myself out of bed and to the front door. When i put my eye to the peep hole i screamed at the top of my lungs. "OMG ITS HERE!" It was the UPS man standing their with a heap of boxes. I gave him my John Hancock and took all of the packages. It was like winter with all the packing materials flying in the air and my cat (Mr. Bubbles) was having a ball. Anyway, after I had gotten it all laid out, here was the scene in my room.

Pic's take with my phone so if you hate bad quality look away, :P

/jealous

Awesome stuff, you got some good high quality parts there. Have fun ;)

Cool setup. It went from the boxes to a finished computer like magic. :D

That is a nice middle of the road PC.nVidiaGaMer

22" only... should atleast went 24" with your setup man, that would of been sick.Bebi_vegeta

8800GTX is old but still fairly high end.

However the Q6600 is old. The Q9450 is the new and it can overclock so much more + it has 12 megs of L2.

Bose speakers for a PC....hmmmMatrix

It can max out Crysis if you have the rig and know the proper tweaking.

what cpu cooler is that? I havent seen it yet... Is it better then coolermaster Gemin 2 or is it on par?TrooperManaic

Gratz for the very nice setup, hope you enjoy your time. But tbh with you, i liked the cat more than anything else :)

Wow dude that must have been an awesome feeling.

Nice tattoo, how much does it hurt getting one on your wrist cause I want my next one to be on my wrist but I'm afraid it's gunna hurt like hell and I have really skinny wrists.

The q6600 and 8800gtx might be a little long in the tooth, but they will still perform as high end parts, especially since he OC'ed the q6600. 8800GTX SLI performs better than a 9800gx2 usually, so I would consider that high end.

it also usually costs significantly more, especially with the price of GTX's, and an SLI mobo.

could easily have gotten a GX2 for less.. and just wait for new drivers, it'll do a lot better soon imo.

Wow some people are calling this not so high end.:|

And yes 8800GTX SLI>>9800GX2.

But wait a damn minute.I know i'll probably get bashed for saying this but you got $250 mobo,$700+ worth of graphics cards,super expensive BOSE speakers and $200 LCD????

I am sorry but that is awful IMO.I am not hating but i cant belive how can someone spend thousands on graphics cards,motherboards,CPU's and what not and then skimp on one of the most important things for your gaming experiecne i.e. the monitor.

I am sure you will have a blast with that and you will enjoy your monitor but you wont get to know what you are missing unless you game with a better display.

8800GTX can be beaten by a non-voltmodded, overclocked 8800GTS 512. voltmodded it blasts past the ULTRA.

Q6600 costs less than half the amount that the 9450 costs. does it perform 50% worse? not even close.

awesome computer man. Also you said that you're from the island. Any chance you're a hawaii fellow?quocthai

8800GTX is better than the GTS no other way around it.Musacircuit_2

Actually the 8800GTS 512mb is made on the smaller cooler 65nm die. Which means that is vastly improved oc potential over the 8800GTX.

Honestly no one in their right minds would pick up a GTS over GTX if money was a non issue.

[QUOTE="quocthai"]awesome computer man. Also you said that you're from the island. Any chance you're a hawaii fellow?KittenNipples

I'm from oahu too. Nice to see someone else from hawaii. How much did the shipping for all that stuff cost you?
