No need to fear, Horus is here.

I was away much longer then I had originally anticipated on my quest to construct a new PC, but alas my task is complete...They had the Technology,
I had the Knowledge (and the Money) to build by far the best PC I have every owned and I'm loving the finished project.

Unfortunately this quest wasn't without its obstacles across rough terrain, damaging terrain that brought angry tears to my eye's to the point that I wanted to smash everything into tiny little pieces rough.

Terrain that blew out my motherboards graphics port for what seemed to be an internal short of some kind, (Thank God for Protection Plans.)

Terrain that forced me to Re-Install Windows on both my hard drives rough, and made one of my external back-up drives magically (Evil Magic) go blank of all its information,
like POOF! it was empty 1.5TB Gone without a trace?!?! Damaging.

Hopefully Check Disk will fix this problem, I'm keeping my fingers crXssed.

Now I have to go through the task of reinstalling all my games and programs once more.

Anyway here it is, the end result of my endevours:

Tower: Cosair Obsidian 650D


Processor: Intel Core i7 4770K @ 3.50GHz Haswell 22nm Technology


Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth Z87 (Socket 1150)


Graphics: ATI AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series 3072MB (Gigabyte)


RAM: 16GB Dual Channel DDR3 @ 799MHz / (32GB Max)


Hard Drives: 2 x 1TB Seagate (SATA)


CD/DVD: DVDRAM -/- DVD+-RW (Dual Layer)


Audio: AMD High Definition Audio Device / Realtek High Definition Audio

I have backup copies of my Hard drive and every game and program I use, I'm involved in a lot of projects online and off, and I store that information there as well.

Backup your backups I always say, and unfortunately I didn't do that but the recovery process is slow.


Thanks for the shout outs folks, and trade Legal...Shame on you Forlon, I'm a Smuggler and the game is Tag...Your IT!

...and I welcome the chase, although it does suck to get caught.
