The oldest parts of my current computer are Jurassic. The chassis, PSU and graphics card (Radeon 9700) are six years old. So it's way past time to build a new one from the bottom up.

I ordered my components almost a month ago (planning on having a running system in time for the demo) but just as in Forward Observers case the delivery date on the graphics card slipped, and then it slipped again. The latest word is that it'll be in tomorrow.

Well, eventually I'll have a Core i7 920 on an Asus X58 mobo with 3x1024MB DDR3 (1333MHz) and a Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 1GB. All living happily ever after in my new black Lian Li PC-B25 chassis.

If I can assemble tomorrow evening I'm still on schedule to be able to play my pre ordered copy of ETW on release day.
