all ordered but for the mobo :) it's out of stock, but my parents are buying that for me as an xmas present anyway, so plenty of time to shop around/wait for newegg to get it back in stock. so excited to have an up-to-date PC. my current rig (from 3 years ago) was old from the moment i built it. it's served me well, but it's time to play with the big boys :)
