I found 2 great deals in the past 2 days and I think I'm jumping on both of them.
I've been looking for a new case for quite some time, and after a lot of research I decided on the Lian Li PC65. I was going to buy it from newegg for $120 + shipping, but I just found it on ebay for $110 shipped (new, in retail box, great seller).
Also, I heard about CompUSA's $200 BBAti Radeon 9800 Pro deal just yesterday, and I think I'm gunna have to pick one up tomorrow. Would be a pretty big upgrade for me as I'm running a SapphireTech 9500 Pro right now that did not overclock very well.
To top everything off, I think I'm finally going to order a new heatsink and fan for my 2500+. I have an all-copper hsf from CompUSA on her right now, but my temps are absolutely awful. I think I'm going to go with Swiftech's MCX462-V. I guess I'll put a 92mm Tornado on it (don't worry, it will be attached to a fan controller).
Speaking of a fan controller, before I throw all this stuff into my new lili, I'm gunna order CoolerMaster's CoolDrive4 hdd cooler and fan controller. This thing is a bargain and is absolutely gorgeous. Since I'm only using one hdd (WD 120GB 7,200rpm) I can get rid of the hdd cage in the lili making for some great airflow throughout the case.http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProdu...-888-203&catalog=43&manufactory=BROWSE&depa=0
It's just all so exciting
P.S. I'll definately have pics for you guys when it's all done. Should look great in the end as I'll spend a lot of time on the wiring.
