I know that feeling too of waiting anxiously for an item to get to you...

I looked at your config, and it's pretty sweet! What are you planning to play on the system?

Mine is Stage 3. I didn't know you could request a special reservoir. I was hoping they would have a web cam of the build. Like a nanny cam.

The Corsair 900d case only became available last Friday. I assumed they ran two loops with the stage 5 cooling. I knew it would be awhile when I placed the order. I have been practicing the ancient art of patience. Answering Zen koans etc.....

I ordered a pre-built (Vanquish Ultimate) early last Wednesday (East Coast time), hoping to avoid the wait. Although the site says "No Waiting! Ready to Ship Within One Business Day!", "In Stock", "Estimated Ship Date: 1 Business Day", et al, it still hasn't shipped as of 15:30 Pacific Monday. Cry

Do DS inform you how much they managed to overclock your CPU?

I'm curious to know what sort of speeds they are getting the i7 4770K up to.

Yeah, if I remember correctly one of the emails they send you as you progress through the stages tells you what O/C they managed to get.

I made a few changes to my build while it was in stage 1. Gives you sometime to rethink your build.
