My new DS machine with pics!

 

I previously ordered a PC through IBP and needless to say that did not work out. I actually happened upon DSO on their forums and immediately regretted my purchase. Almost a blessing it was DOA.

 

I got a ton of help from the forum here. You guys are great! I didnt need a lot of support from the DSO staff but the little things like when I e-mailed in a change to my order, it was handled quickly and I had a completely new config e-mailed to me within a couple hours and I had done it early enough where it didnt effect my build.

 

The PC flew through the stages with its longest pause at stage 5 (I think it was 5 or 6 days there no big deal). As everyone notes the packaging is huge and robust. The PC fired right up and have not seen an issue yet. I havent run any benchmarks or temps or anything. Although I suspect I should (once I figure out how.. most of my PC knowledge came from this site). I have named my build FutureCity! This was based on my 9 year old step son describing the internals of my IBP machine a modern city and my DSP PC a future city(he even saw a lake in there... th ekid has imagination)
