Just picked up a new in box, Dell P1230 22" Diamondtron CRT, been looking for a good, new CRT for ages, and finally found one on Ebay for 180$ shipped, so hurray. Also, the speakers and receiver are new, 6.5" fronts, 5.25" rears, dual 5.25" center, and a 10" sub, all from TSC, little known company, but fantastic stuff. The receiver is nothing too fancy, a Pioneer VSX-517, I am simply using it for its amp, analog out from my X-FI.

 

Behold my Gimp depth of field!

A retail E7400, 2x2GB of G.Skill Pi DDR2-900 4-4-4-12, an Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 (or S2? whichever is the four heatpipe one), and some MX-2 thermal paste to test against my AS5 and Ceramique.

 

Oh, and a Yate Loon 120x25 medium speed to match my other one and go with my new second set of fan clips for my TRUE. I wanted to go with two high speed Yate Loons, but they only had one in stock :( Maybe another day.

 

I'm very excited to do some quad/dual core comparisons with my new crossfire setup. Whichever chip wins plays the Warz, whichever loses gets demoted to the IP35-Pro on server duty :P

Took advantage of a price error(didn't last long)at NCIX.com and got an EVGA x58 motherboard for $265.99 CDN minus a $35.00 MIR = $230.99 CDN. I saved $100.00 :)
