Parts arrived

So nearing the end of my trip here in California, I've managed to get a good chunk of my parts ordered in and received.  I have my 2 x GTX 670 DirectCU IIs, the Corsair AX1200 PSU, 4 x 4GB Corsair Vengeance Arctic White DIMMs.  Also got my Wyse moogle kit infor my keyboard =)

When I get back to Sydney the only things I'll really need are the CM 690 II Advanced Black and White case, the NZXT Havik 140 CPU cooler, the GA-X79-UP4 (I'm still waiting on a release date for this thing), and an SSD which I am still up in the air about.

The Samsung 830 or Intel 520 seem to be the best bet for MLC flash longevity, however with SLC coming to the consumer market in the form of the SuperSSpeed S301, it may just be worth holding out for. 

I am still waiting on another order to arrive.  The XIM Edge console mouse and keyboard adapter.


I'll have a little update on this when I get to test it out =) From what I've seen it is a huge upgrade over the original XIM.

Will post pics when I'm safely back in Aus putting this thing together.
