Three Ivy Bridge systems coming together.
I just got done purchasing 3 Ivy Bridge chips. This is going to be one HELL'OF'A update, 3 complete IB systems, one for me and each of my sons (once in a lifetime update, never did three at once). Might as well throw in some 27 inch IPS monitors at the same time, new case with power supply, EVO coolers, a ASUS mobo to try out, 48GB of memory, headphones for everyone, and some bling lighted fans and a white LED strip for the window.
EDIT: The CPUs are starting to arrive! Two of them today, one more coming:
Over a K of CPUs and the cost of mobos and coolers.
3 Dell U2711 monitors, a really nice case, a ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe mobo, 3 new coolers, and my old computer, already 6 months obsolete.
48GB of memory (heh, 48 K indeed) and a Sirius CM headset ( one of 4 that I own- THE BEST).
Now to squeeze in ANOTHER drive, SSD, for the SSD-Mechanical hard drive combo for the ASUS board
