For real?
The guy who had the deal on a computer and monitor sold it. Well, he traded it for a PS4. Good for him. That just means that I've actually got to put something together myself and quit being such a lazy bastard. Apparently he got a PS4 with BF4 AND 400 bucks. That's a hell of a deal for him.
I started ordering my parts as soon as I confirmed this happened. I ordered the 4670K. It is now confirmed as my build CPU. I ordered the ASRock Z87 Fatal1ty Killer motherboard. I also ordered, like an idiot, the wrong RAM. I wanted to order Mushkin Stealth, but it was out of stock... because when I want something it is always out of stock. I scrolled down and selected one of the similar products, checked the specs and added to the order. Once I ordered I was inspecting the form and realized that I ordered only ONE stick of RAM. So, I ordered ONE stick of DDR3 1600 Kingston HyperX Red RAM. At least it is 8GB. I was trying to save a little cash up front and was going to go with a 2x4GB package. My second choice was the G.Skill Aegis RAM, which I will still try to get if I am able to cancel this order.
I've changed up some of my preferences based on some issues I've run into. I've left out parts that I haven't decided on or are not in stock. My ASUS 780 Direct CU II I wanted? Yeah, it's outta stock. The CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO is even out of stock. WOW! Le sigh.

I've already got the SSD drives and ordered some other essentials. I look forward to getting started with these for now. I hope to continue fleshing it out slowly. I plan to pick up the Case, cooler and PSU next. Then again, I'm sure something will change again. =P
