It looks good, but the 1-2 weeks shipping time is throwing me off.

I'm paying for overnight shipping on the rest of my rig. So thats kind of moot if I wait 2 weeks for a video card.


even neweggs standard shipping is like $4-5 bucks per item, even then a lot are free, for 3 day ups standard.

Seems stupid to wait 2 weeks on account of 25-30 bucks imo.

Catches the daggers and stows them away in secret forum pocket for later*

I'm now canceling because they said they will ship it on 9/13, and well. School will have started by then.

25 minutes on hold, 10 minutes my butt.

Ya they are quick to take your money bud. Not so quick at giving it back :(
Hazaro

HAHA!

I got transfered to another person who doesn't have athority to cancel orders. Wow DELL...

Hold again lol :mad:

*Yay, 70 minutes are over! I end up with Rohit and he works through it. Hopefully the changes shows in 24-36 hours........

This has taught me a valuable lesson... Never go with Dell..
