Whee, new parts ordered!

So, my profit sharing cheque was in my bank account for maybe 15 minutes before I ordered these parts for my new computer:

  • Gigabyte EP45-UD3R motherboard
  • Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83GHZ Yorkfield 1333FSB 12MB
  • EVGA E-GEFORCE GTX 260 Core 216 SC 55NM
  • G.SKILL F2-8500CL5D-4GBPK PC2-8500 4GB 2X2GB DDR2-1066
  • Scythe Orochi 10 Heatpipe CPU Heatsink (this thing weighs 3 pounds!)
  • Antec NSK 4480B II Mini Tower Case

I’m missing a new hard drive, DVD-R, keyboard and mouse – but I’ll use some spare stuff I have around until I get new ones. Should be nice for just gaming :)
