Picked up a few odds and ends yesterday

XIGMATEK Dark Knight and a PCI-E wireless card to put some of my old parts together for a folding machine, USB external DVD drive because I'm tired of having to pull the one out of my main rig all the time for benching ect , Samsung 830 128 GB SSD for my main rig to replace my 60 GB Vertex 2. Been wanting to upgrade my SSD for a while and the other night I got a BSOD and the Vertex didn't show up in the BIOS until I powerd down and unplugged/replugged it in so it seemed like a good excuse to replace it and make it a benching drive.
 
That USB DVD drive is good idea. I was actually thinking about the same and it's in plans for some, not far future. Only problem is that older boards don't like some of these drives but for that I still have some IDE.

Btw already edited BIOS for that GTX275 but there is not much improvement as max voltage is 1.18V while stock was 1.17V ( it was already higher than reference card ). I can't complain as this card is running for last 5h in F@H @756/1250MHz ( 650/1175 stock ). Core temp under full load 50*C :)
 
I've been wanting one and the fact that I was getting ready to setup another PC and was going to microcenter meant it was time lol. I think the only board I have that may not like it (that I use enough for it to matter) is my DFI Ultra D though I've never tried booting from USB devices from one so I don't know. In this day and age they are handy as there is no need much anymore for one outside of initial setup for many people as everything is just digital download.
 
i got my intel centrino wireless-n 2200 yesterday much better signal but having issues with wireless n but the better signal on G is good nuff for me i guess lol for some reason wireless N would only work occasionally and was super slow
