    Sadly I will not be at CES (Nvidia wanted me to staff the gaming booth but I have to be at school on that Friday and Saturday . . .the ONE time a month my class meets have to be that weekend). Here are pics of the Nvidia one (not perfect but ok for a quick assembly). I still need to get the Crucial one sent off. Will work on it over Xmas holiday

    Well, my memory of mobos fail me. But I knew it was a good mobo.

    Was I right on the GPU?

    I'll be sure to keep an eye out for these rigs when I go!
    Company always sends the managers out to Vegas for CES, and every year they raffle off another spot to the employees. This year, I got lucky, so the wife and I will be joining the bosses in Vegas for CES. Already got the pass and airline flights.

    Would I be correct in presuming nVidia will be in the Gaming section?

    280 ;)



    Before you all rag on me about the CPU coolers:
    I have two TRUE black coolers I was going to use. Opened them up...mobo is socket 1156. That is the ONLY socket not included in the TRUE pack. I had to ship the next day so I drove to Frys and got the only thing that would fit. Two SPONSORED TRUEs from Performance PCs and I had to shell out my own money for TTs! My bad

    Second one shipping tomorrow
