Well, I received my computer around 1 pm yesterday from Fedex. The poor delivery woman had trouble even lifting this almost 60lb box. When she pulled the box from the truck she could tell I was excited by the huge smile on my face.

I brought the box in and gave it a once over and it was in great shape! I wanted to take my time opening it all up so I snapped a few pics of the box and while opening. The binder is a great touch and the accessories box had all the manuals and extras neatly put away. When I finally got to the very well cushioned rig I was in awe. I just stood and admired for a few minutes.

The inside of this machine is a piece of art. The way all the wires are tucked away and everything is so neat and organized. I was in love..=)
When I finally got done drooling I hooked this beast up and she purred like a kitten. Everything ran great and all my software installed without a hitch. I got WoW up and running and was getting 60fps in Shatt!! I was impressed as I was lucky to get 10fps on my P IV.

It may have cost a little less money if I went to another vendor but I doubt they would have paid this much attention to detail. All the parts were quality name brand items and they put this rig together like it was going to be a show piece. I am very impressed and DS has just earned a lifetime customer.

THANKS!!

Here is a link to some pics I took.

Nice rig. I'm new here and after reading through these forums I'm convinced this is the place to get my comp. Glad to hear the success story.

O M F G!  Excuse while I drool in your presence.

A huge ol' case for such small components.  But you'll have plenty of room to grow... if you actually need to.

Jealous to the extreme here, man.
