So, looking at that P182, are the standoffs already on the case and can I remove them if they're in the way? Also, when you attach the mobo, do you have to... how do I say this. Okay, I can think of a few ways to say it and they all sound bad so excuse me. Do you have to screw in all the holes? Another Q, the I/O panel has bendy metal on the back of it, do I bend those off or push them in?

Tankguys has the retail in. This is where I got my OEM.

They had them at 1:45est at least. :P

Also, keep your eyes out for a Xeon 3350. It's essentially the same CPU.

This site had them in stock when I posted. Granted I didn't look over the site besides seeing if they had it in stock or not.

[QUOTE="animemog"]What I did, was I went to the shopping channel on Google and searched for the Q9450. I got about 8-10 pages of results and would quickly scan through all of them. After a few days, I found a place that had them in stock and could purchase them with Google Checkout. Received it a few days ago. So, if you see something you want that's in stock for a good price, go for it. I missed my chance on some CHEAP OCZ RAM and now I'm really regretting it. :PALLoY1717

Man, I am really annoyed over my OCZ ram. I placed the order the money went from my card then I got a message saying that they canceled my order with no reason given. Now I got to wait for the money to get ack to me until I can look elsewhere. The real annying thing is though the price was so good $197 for 2GB 1600Mhz DDR3 Platinum OCZ. Now if I want the same thing I can only find it for 259. :(

And on top of the my new Mobo arrived today, so I am sitting here with the EVGA 790i Ultra with no ram or processor.

Yeah, I saw that RAM available for $160 somewhere, but by the time I wanted to order it, it was sold out. I ended up getting it on Amazon, the only place with it in stock, for $200. :o

I received my 790i today, too. I'm wondering if I can install the CPU, HSF, GPU, and sound card right now. But I might wait until I get the rest of my components so I can do it all at once.

What have I done. :P

Go wired. Wireless is just better.

GodLovesDead

Wut? And I recommend wired. Wireless are usually more expensive if you want quality. I've tried a few and definitely feel less precision. My MSPaint skills were hindered greatly.
