I got the Email yesterday that my rig was in Stage 6 and that it would ship in 0 to 1 day.  Did the shipment of 5870's come in early?  Has anyone else who specified the 5870 in their system received a similar Email?

Email received, Stage 7.  My system will(hopefully) arrive by the end of next week(hopefully).  I feel like a kid waiting on Christmas.  This will be the first real 'power user' rig I will have owned.  Even though I had to go sort of low end on the Proc. and Mobo, by the type of standards of a computer that one gets from Best Buy, my system should be 'Kick Ass'. 
 
I will let you know how it survived shipping.  I ain't gonna post any pics cause my system is really nothing special compaired to the super cutting edge, latest greatest components that can be specd on a really good DS system.
 
Here is a bit of info that some might find humerous:  I purchased a MemoRight 32GB SSD(Model MR25.1-032S, this drive is no slouch, even by current standards) over a year ago with intent of installing it in my antique rig.  I never got around to doing it as I intended to replace my HD with this SSD so I was going to reload XP and reinstall all my programs and utilities,AGAINYing%20Yang  Way back then, I paid ALMOST 1K for this drive.  I will install it in my new DS system.

a 920 oced to 3.5 to 3.7 is not low end at all, it beats the highest cpu the 975.

we don't have a low end mobo here either, not counting xfx.

the pics are not just about whether the rig is special or not, they are about showing your pc and build/wireing/etc job that DS has done and clean and neat it is and such, so please do post pics, and what are your specs? oc? temps?

also most of the people get the same mobo/cpu/gpu/psu etc setup as you.

congrats Now its time to pray to the shipping gods
