:lol: No I am the one who is always very very early. Especially for shopping centers, I go in get what I want and get out of there as fast as possible all before the masses arrive so they can wonder about at half an inch an hour looking at things they wont actually buy

Nice kit! Just wary of Sandforce driven SSD's, seen way to many problems with Sandforce SSD's.

No I put it off until now... decided to wait a while and see how Ivy Bridge performed before making a purchase
Very close in spec to what I wanted back then.... and $500 cheaper - actually I might update that thread now :D
