How long do you guys find those sets take to complete?

6 hours? Dunno, last time I built one that big I was like 10.

 

[phuckingduck]

No idea since we just got the thing a week ago.

Haha, just remember to not go balls out with the color

 

[IceBone]

Meh, printed an A2 photo already, didn't show any drain on the ink meter. But the quality sucks. It's not a photo printer, i'll tell you that!

 

[Finagle]

Finally.

 

[IceBone]

Wrong mouse, man!

 

[Finagle]

Which is the right one, oh Ice-san?

 

[IceBone]

the mx revolution, of course.

 

[NAIDANAC A]

the mx revolution, of course.

Nah,Microsoft sidewinder ftw.

O how much was it Slycer.

 

[Finagle]

Uh, round 1200EUR.

 

[jeffy777]

Man, the box for that 8800GT is huge! It's even bigger than your motherboard box. Does it have the full boxed version of COH:OF inside?

I think the box for my 8800GTS was like half that size

 

[devil500]

Edit just saw your price dam!

 

[Finagle]

EU prices are much higher than those in the states but still I made a good purchase, EU price wise. I have no
idea how big/small the graphic card box is to be honest. This is my first card after more than three years of
pain and suffering on an integrated video card. The Revolution is a no-go since the only game i do play regulary
is Counter Strike where the difference is noticable.

I just finished putting the thing together, will make backups of this HD now then format and test the machine.

 

[johns13193]

Nice! I love the box for the ram. Was it 2 or 4 gigs?

 

[Shawn]

IceMat...

 

[Finagle]

Two modules, 2 GB each. And don't bash my IceMat, ktnx. ;(

 

[MadCow809]

Uh, round 1200EUR.

Finally.

well lets see what you got there

ram -mushkin, checked

mobo - asus p5le, checked

cpu - cant really see it from the pic, but its a dual core, so : )

vga - 8800gt, checked. which should go very well with the asus mobo.

cant see what brand is the hdd

and whats that white box sitting above the wireless router?

 

[BlitzR]

Thats a quad core cpu, and the white box is a mouse pad.

 

[MadCow809]

eish.. such a big box just for a mouse pad.

and i was expecting a magic carpet or something....

Well, it is made of glass, which makes it ?ber cool.

And it's actually a very large mat. (250 x 300 mm)

Yeah, it's AWSOME. My mouse glides on it perfectly. And it won't wear out like my last one. A fUnc.
