Ooo... difficult decisions!

I have to admit I'm starting to save for the additions to my rig (likely another 690) but I'll wait and see what happens towards the end of the year before committing any more money to this one.

My current desktop is a P4 3.2GHz, 2 Gb RAM and a Radeon X1950 Pro and 9 years old... Plays L4D2 very nicely but compared to pretty much anything else it is a bit of a dinosaur! Your 6670 makes it look very sorry.

Been meaning to upgrade for a while and finally had the money and go-ahead from the wife. Getting quite excited about this now :taz:

I bet.

I saw a PCSpecialist Facebook post the other day about an order that came through that had Triple SLI Titans in it. That's just mental!

Pretty much! Will take a bunch of unpacking photos and get them posted up over the weekend... Better get some Red Bull on the way home tonight -- think I may need it :D

Delivered! Based on how the DPD driver was throwing boxes around in the back of the van to dig out mine I'm a tiny bit concerned as to how the kit has stood up to the travel, but I expect all will be well. Just need to finish my working day and then I'll be able to get everything sorted out! Fun times tonight! :D

Very much looking forward to this. Kids will be in bed by 7.30, the wife is out for the night from 8, so just me and my new baby tonight, getting to know each other a little better ;)

Hehe, enjoy :)

*Meanwhile Rakk is busy trying to locate a few things, 1) where Outerarm is - can't be too far away from where I am and 2) my ninja skills to help with getting myself a new PC :):):)
