I build a new system every year. I usually don't get the latest and greatest as I find hardware is way ahead of the software that I run. Another important point is that I skipped last year all together due to my rig running everything I could throw at it with settings that I was satisfied with. At times it can run even better than how I have it set up.
This year was gonna be the year. Sandy Bridge and I were gonna go out on a date and GET IT ON as the late Chris Farley would say. Then the SATA issue. Now Nothing can be found on the egg. No Chips, no MB's, no 1155, no P67 and no WTF is going on.
Now I am reading articles about Ivy Bridge. I mean, I think I could build a strong bridge out of Ivy, but its starting to seem like we wont get a chance to even build a sand castle before the Ivy grows over the beach. Which is fine, but come out and say something already.
Seems to be a whole lot of
without any real info being passed. I guess ill just Raid0 some SSD's. I need to build. I have had the urge to build when sand was on NewEgg. I was getting ready to purchase when I heard about the Sata issue. That was a month ago. By the time Intel wakes up AMD will pull a fast one and be on top again....yes.....im that old.
We are past the point of giving group hugs and saying "everything will be alright" as long as we stick together
. Those days are over. RESULTS PLEASE!!
Thank you. Sorry for wasting your time if you feel I did. I just had to write a post as I sit here witth the $$ poised to build my new rig.....yet theres nothing to buy. Personally, a SATA port going out after three years, Ill get over it. Its not like there isn't 7 or more other Sata ports to move to.
Sorry....needed the vent. But thank you for any ideas or w/e you wanna type.
