After saving and waiting and waiting and waiting some more...
All my parts came in today, and I started building my computer!
+ Show Spoiler +
I also have an Intuos4 Large Wacom tablet, because I am studying animation and digital graphics! :D I have been unable to use it with my crappy little MacBook because Photoshop crashes my whole computer. But now... I have the Adobe Creative Suite Master Collection, and my new computer, so I can do EVERYTHING! (and actually have things to put on my dA)
Had to leave it to go to work, but I will be off in an hour, and all that's left is connecting all my cords and wires! (Easier said than done, because my graphics card is freaking huge and obnoxious, so I keep having to take things out to connect something or other.)
Once I have it set up, I can install all kinds of goodies! A friend set up a Steam account for me (for the first time lol, since I have always had a MacBook) and gave me some new games! (No idea what it is yet though.) Then my new Adobe programs, and of course SC2 (which I will finally be able to play without lag!), and I can start playing around with my Google+ account I finally got today!
And next week I am going to NYC to see a friend and have a vacation from work to be spoiled! Andddddd... the only thing sad about today was Sheth lost vs Squirtle. T_______T
TL;DR:
New computer New software New games New Wacom Tablet Chinese food for lunch Google+ account Vacation next week Today was pay day Going to get off work, ditch the uniform, don my TL shirt Life is awesome.

Looks sweet red! cant wait to start playing and steaming with ya! :D we will dominate TL and the THE WORLD ♥
|
I rate this one star...... because....... ¯\_(シ)_/¯
|
Dayum dude awesome day. The only thing that could be better is squirtle winning and japanese food.

I'm pretty jelly of your new PC... >:|
I don't get the tablet thing, though. Is it a peripheral you plug into your PC and use to draw on?
Have a good vacation.
|
Red's PC imba!
I was bothering you on Skype to make sure you didn't miss Sheth's games, but I would be silly to think you wouldn't tune in.. :p

@LazyMacro: Yeah, the tablet basically matches up with any area on your screen so you can produce digital art work easily by drawing directly on the tablet with a stylus (looks like a pen, feels like a pen, has no ink). It's pretty great if you are spending a lot of time and effort drawing/animating/whatever.
|
Take pics of it! We want to see pics!
|
Awesome! Nothing like the glow that comes from having some hard work pay off )
|
Nice, my comp died a few weeks ago and I just got my new one too. Felt transcendent that day (2 days ago).

You should share some of your work.

I rated this 5 stars because... ¯\_(シ)_/¯
|
I have that same case dude enjoy it. It has amazing ventilation.

Getting a new computer will make anyone's life better.

But anyways, congratulation!

I'm so jelly of your new computer, I can complement a peanut butter sandwich.
I'm overheating so much with rage right now... just not as much as my current computer is.
|
Niiicee build. How much did it end up costing when all was said and done?
|
eh, should've picked a i5 2500k. Nice to know you can overclock...
|
Uhhhhh All said and done... (Including my Adobe Masters Collection software and OS), right about $1800
|
Its honestly not a very good build. If you had asked advice in te tech forum you could've saved 100+ dollar.

Besides that nit-pick, congrats on a new computer, wish I could get a new computer.
