I love: The 64mb cached HDD, the i7 950, the PSU :)
Looks like a formidable build. Will you be joining us in our folding@home ? :p

Look's a nice spec, you should count yourself lucky that they had all your parts in stock to allow you the optionof fasttracking lol.

Haha yes very lucky. I'm impatient enough at the best of times, if I wasn't working or had a some sort of worker monkey that could pick up the comp during the week I'd have gone the 3 day option..

@Sleinous - what is folding@home? I presume it's not what you do after the washing..

Hmm.. I'll have to consider that.

Apparently my computer is ready and waiting for dispatch.. (that was quick!). Of course being employed means that the waiting game until Saturday begins (I really need a helper monkey to collect my things).

If your work is understanding and you don't have too long a commute, you might think about changing saturday delivery to early morning (it's the same price).

I did that, cos my PC was ready for dispatch on a monday morning too and I didn't want to wait til Saturday, though it does indeed help that it only takes 25 mins for me to get to work, and I'd asked my boss if it would be ok if I was slightly late (as it happened, it arrived at 8:15, I was out the door after 20 mins of opening and looking and I got to work pretty much at 9 on the dot - of course I spent the rest of the day clock-watching waiting for 5:30).

Alas, I have morning meetings every day this week, otherwise I would do that. I suppose I'll be clockwatching until Saturday then..
