So as I've been saying, I got myself a new machine, or at least most of my machine is new.
MOBO: ASUS P8Z68-V LX Z68 L1155 GLAN DDR3
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3GHz 8MB L1155
RAM: DDR3 8GB (2x 4GB) KVR1333D3N9K2
HDD: SATA II Seagate 1Tb 7200RPM 32M
Case: ATX Coolmaster 922HAF
PSU: Antec Truepower 650W
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium :(
The whole thing cost me C$950 which is a pretty competitive price. I got it at Sonnam Computer at College and Spadina in Toronto. I looked for these part at various shops around that area and online so I know the price isn't too bad. I picked this particular shop because of the service, the sales people were quite helpful and willing to give me a discount as well. I do however have a complaint. While picking my part I specifically asked them to not install any OS on the machine. I wanted them to put some of the parts together, but since I was going to dual boot it, I preferred to take it home and partition the HDD myself and start from there. Well even though I asked them that in more than one occasion they still installed my OS and did the authentication online which was very annoying. Overall though, the experience wasn't bad.
