Grabbed some new parts:

Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 replaces MSI 890 FXA GD70
OCZ Vertex 4 256GB replaces 300GB Raptor
Got 32GB of ram to replace the 16GB (why, i dunno!).

Pics to come (if these new forums will ever let me upload pics...)

Waiting for the Piledrivers to chuck this one out the window. Still rocking a 5770 hah. Until WoW and D3 need something a littel more beefy or whenever the next refresh is, it'll do for now :P

Stuff before installation, stuff after installation, and the BIOS screen, works with the mice and scroll wheel and whatnot. It's about time they went into the 21st century with it!

Those read speeds are ridiculously high :shock:
On the flip side, those write speeds are actually a little slow... :P

Yeah, I don't really know if it's the port I put the SSD into. It's rediculous compared to my 300GB raptor anyways.

Updated with FX 8350 Octocore...and from some news I read, this is the last of the big core processors from AMD :(

Yes, it says only 13C.

The last bit of rumor I've heard about Intel is that after the next line of processors coming out they might start looking at switching to CPU's without pin arrays on them at all. This would mean they would come pre-soldered onto a motherboard, much like the integrated chipsets you see in smart phones and mobile devices. It doesn't mean their CPU's wouldn't continue on in the same path they currently are headed with speed/cores, but I could see it changing slightly to be more energy efficient, small form factor, etc... oh, and to also cripple the custom built system market a bit with it. :-\

Again just a rumor though!

What does intel care anyways...The retail market is small compared to millions of OEM sales.

Exactly, that's why when I heard that rumor I was like "Ya, I can see that happening soon".
