    Finally installed Crysis. Not Warhead, the original. Running at 1920x1200 res, everything Very High, 4xAA, and I get 30+ FPS on average. The attention to detail in this game is just remarkable. :yes:

Yeah I might get another Viper kit sumtime later. Have to get...

    The EVGA card was for $510 on Newegg, just a few days after its release. The courier service (Aramex) took about 10 days to bring the items here from Minnesota, USA.

    $155 for the mobo and $275 for the processor on Newegg. There was a $35 combo discount when buying the 2 together.

    Can anyone get down PC parts for me from the US?

    I found out Aramex shipping charges today. For 1st 500g -> $50 For each additional 500g -> $7 plus A fuel Surcharge or sumthing. But if you use their Shop & Ship service, for the 1st 500g it's only $12.50.
