    Have them order one for me too?

    :D

    Looks like a nice rig!

    The only thing I'll call out is GSkill memory. I had some a while back and it threw errors constantly. I had major issues. Switched to Corsair and it fixed all my problems. Anyone else? Or was it just some of Ghost's classic luck.

    My older brother, OkolePooka on here, had some GSkill memory. He kept getting BSoD every 3/4 times he booted up.

    Was it their TridentX series? Almost all of the reviews i've read have been positive.

    Man I was thinking about saving for that exact video card. The 4GB memory is way important for certain 3D applications, like ZBrush and Mari. I got me a 670 instead. I'm just going to go ahead and deal with the less-than-optimal performance.

    Sick card, man. How'd you swing your company to pick up the rig for you? "Uh...security and password auditing and stuff"
