I've got everything ready to be ordered. I'm going to wait for the 7870s to come out before ordering them. Chances are they'll be $300, which I'm prepared to go for. Even if they're $350, it's whatever. I don't need this to game yet, so I'll use the integrated graphics on the 2500k while I wait for the 7870. I'm hoping I get a good chip in this batch; trying to join the 5GHz club.
Any questions or suggestions?
