Can you cancel your processor order. www.microcenter.com will have a better one cheaper and or the same one cheaper by 50+
Q9300 = 239.99
Q9450 = 289.99
Is this tigerdirect Canada? Cause you paid a higher premium and got some bad parts.
Getting an SLi solution instead of a single GPU is not a very good choice at that price range. Dual GPU has always been flaky, and the rescent graphics card offerings have been stellar. Those 2 put together don't match the performance of 1 card at that price range.
Also you paid double price on that ram. You could have gotten a 2x2GB kit for under $100.

Well, at least I get a "free" copy of World in Conflict with it. lol
No, U.S. TigerDirect.com.
And I swapped the two 9600s for one 9800gt superclocked for $119 ( after rebate ) instead.
The reason I got four sticks of 1024mb instead of 2 2048mb ram was so I could spread the ram equally between all four slots. And by the time any games come out requiring 8 gigs of ram, I'll have upgraded the whole thing again anyway. lol
I could have gotten some parts cheaper, but I've always had good luck with TD and it's easier when all the parts come from one place ( I hate hunting invoices/reciepts down later on if I need 'em ).
Oops didn't notice they were the 1600mhz watercooled edition.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. The parts are not the best for the price and the prices WTF!!!
edit: might of seemed a little harsh.
Who let you in the VIP section?
