[Rozal]

I am getting it monday! Isn't this great! I want to share all my improvements on this thread when I get it.

 

[Rattle]

[FlakMonkey]

Just ordered my new conroe system too. Can't wait

 

[Jod]

I almost bit on a $279 6600+crap ECS board @ Fry's yesterday, but it was tray. B chip, tho Rat's proved that to pooop. Suppose I'll muddle along w/ my 6400's slightly less intimidating ewee.

Gratz Rozal.

My brother and I have been discussing over the phone (because we live in different states) building our newest system sometime in the near future for that last month or so. We got together for Thanksgiving and talk about it face to face. On Friday he told me he had ordered his parts. I thought about it for an hour or so, and decided that I too would order my parts.

So we both are getting pretty much the same stuff except he chose the Zalman 9700 CPU cooler and the Antec True Power Trio TP3-650; while I chose the Thermalright SI-120CPU cooler and OCZ GameXSteme 700 PSU. The rest of the hardware in my "New Build" signature is the same as his. We will have the same cpu, motherboard, ram, and a 150GB raptor HDD.

We both expect delivery on Thursday.

[enz660]

good luck w/ the builds.

 

[[SC]Ceasar]

Well, mine wont be a Conroe...it will be an Allendale! (e6400)
but, hell yea! those result will come once i got it up and running!!

 

[xenotick]

Yup, I ordered my new Conroe system yesterday too - will be putting in my 8800gtx and doing some testing can't wait - should be here on Tuesday.

 

[FlakMonkey]

Awesome, good to see a lot of new systems coming out so we can get some more results on here

 

[Rozal]

It's here! Just about little over 2 more hours of classes and I can go install it, check it out!

 

[deathman20]

So, its been only 90min, so we expect results in 60min Should give you roughly 30min to install and fire up the system hehe.

 

[ziggo0]

LOL! Like a little kid on Christmas

Man I was standing there thinking the same thing! I love/hate frys! Instead, I went with the $149 combo with the E6300. It's a tray CPU, but I have a heatsink from my E6600 that will work fine.

Turns out the eVGA 680i I ordered with the CPU and such isn't in stock - so got to wait until thursday - the agony!!
