with shipping my jersey comes to about $380


I'm gonna wait on this order (unless a great HD deal pops up) to bring it to 500 for the promotion. Let me know if there is anything better I can get for about the same price. I will love you forever.

Are you not going to have any hard drives for your server... it may make it hard to save things...? Are you looking at any hard drives in particular?

Anyway, everything looks good. I would make sure to go with a RAID hard drive setup for a server if I was you. It will increase your uptime and secure your data. Luckily your motherboard supports RAID 0/1/0+1/5 so you'll be ok if you decide to setup RAID. I would go with 0+1 for all around speed and data security. Look into it.

hard drives i will wait til they get cheaper.

Basically, this is the main setup i want in terms of mobo/cpu, etc.. not sure if i want a prettier case or not haha.. I will probably buy hd coolers and more fans just to be on the safe side (but that's another topic bc im not too familiar with the best cooling methods).

These are my hopes and assumptions:

Newegg will have some deal on 320-400gb hd's (sata 3.0 of course).. I will then add the hd's to my 'wish list' and use the $500 promotion where I pay no interest for 6 months.. that way I don't have to fork over 600+ at once and I can just pay it off slowly.. plus i can build my credit because I do have the money weeeeee
