Been in stage 5 for 18 days now. What worries me is that I got two separate calls from DS informing me that my CPU got too hot during testing and that I needed to upgrade my cooling system. Dec. 30, stage 5 began. Jan. 10, DS calls the first time to authorize upgrade. Get e-mail confirming upgrade same day. Jan. 15, got second call from DS informing and advising a cooling upgrade....that was discussed and confirmed the week before. Jan. 17, haven't heard anything from DS.

I'd send them an email, give the timeline and ask the progress. It could be they're very busy, had to order a part or something fell through the cracks.
What did you order if you don't mind sharing? It will get done, just waiting is agonizing. Good Luck. ![]() |

Sounds like since they had some temp issues they were making sure all was good and/or waiting for parts. Glad to hear it got shipped... Now comes the wait as your rig is shipped to you...
