New Computer BOUGHT!....YES The Ultra was included LOLOL

Welllllll I did it...After all this hype and build up of PC's I wanted a upgrade....So I hopped on newegg and did the build...She should be here thursday ready for me to build...I ended up with a 900Watt power supply because it came with a free hard drive, and I need a hard drive LOL...I ended up with a MSI 8800Ultra OC for two reasons, 1 is was 75$ more then a 8800gtx and two its a ultra and I keep telling everybody else to get one so I don't wanna be a hypocrit...here is my build...


I sold my comp for 1200 + 40 for a old memory rebate should be here anyday now.....

The new comp was 1637 shipped minus 120 in rebates sooo total would come to 1517 minus other moneys I have:

1637-160(40 old memory rebate) = 1477 or 277$ For the upgrade, plus I sold a friends heli that he hasn't seen in 6 months LOL made a 100, soooo 177 for the upgrade

I looked at Tuniq's and didn't like the reviews or ease of installation they offered on it...I wanted a clean looking setup and the asus wasn't to flash, silver with small blue led.


That ultra is going to be a bi### to install, however I have put a 8800GTX in it no problems, how much bigger is the ultra?

Max, I will only have 1 hard drive for now. I will put it up top, like I did in my old comp....As for being 1.5 inches longer, where did you get that number?



Also new egg couldn't verify my CC and through a bunch of litigation and prices going up from last night to today..


I ended up getting it all for 1618 instead of 1637....WOOOHOO

Oh Fuk....That is big...Will this fit in a Antec 900, if I don't have any hard drives in the way?

Man You suck Sol, I thought it was the same size as the GTX...I know the GTX Fit ok, but just had to move hard drives up.

Man the GTS 640mb had PLENNNNTY of room lol.

Have you ever used a GTX? Or a Ultra? Do you know exactly how big each of them is?


The GTX is a Big Card, and if i'm not mistaken prolly almost the same size if the same size as a Ultra.


I guess we'll find out....New egg is taking forever on this order, I told them if they couldn't process my credit card by tonight, cancel the entire order LOL, stupid new egg.
