45view I am very excited to receive this system, I normally am when I have new toys arriving. Anyhow, I want to thanks iBuyPower.com. When I had it narrowed down to the two companies I mentioned in the last off topic posting, I decided to call each of them and ask what type specials they had. One company offered free ground shipping and the iBuyPower knocked $200 off the top. This covers the rush service and delivery. Thanks guys. I got an email late last night with a Fed-Ex tracking number showing it to be here today. I can’t wait. Read on to see why!

I think this will do it for a couple months…

    Quite a nice system! I actually have the same case as you :P It's an awesome case. I built mine last year, I'm sure you'll love your computer.

    Mine isn't as decked out, but even mine runs extremely fast (no SSD, but RAID); you'll love it.
  • WOW! That's a really good system! Would like that for a server. :D Nice choice Chris! And by the way, Vista is going to run extremely fast on that. Unless if you happen to go the Linux way. :P

    Sexy system! Only thing missing is a blue ray player.
  • Thanks Steve. I am buying into the speed of instant access thing. It was a tough choice, but since the raptor 10,000 rpm drive and this were pretty close, I decided to try it out. :)

    Nice computer, but I think you've been had with the SSD drive. Being in the field myself, there's a lot of stigma surrounding the ssd and normal drive 'thing'. The fact of the matter is, unless your computer is moving around, right now, it's pretty pointless. They're not 100x faster than normal drives. And the speed difference isn't very noticeable, unless you're spec'ing out the numbers.

    It's a nice system, but you could have saved yourself a couple hundred by using a standard drive. 1tb drives are less than $150 now!!! And in all honesty, until solid state drives are as cheap as regular drives, they'll only be useful in laptop computers.
