Nice, curious to see how much your temps drop. 

 

 

I just order an SSD from amazon (for a customers PC, hard drive is failing) and there were a lot fewer options available for fast shipping. Supposedly this holiday season is going to be really rough for amazon for multiple reasons. I wonder if I should order an couple spares SSDs for now...

I'll swap it in at the same time I swap in the Optimus KPE 3090 block:

I had my eyes on the Acoustic Energy AE1s to replace some old, beat up Bose desktop speakers for quite some time now, but decided to order these instead. May also get a sub depending on how these work out as nearfields:

^purdy.

 

I thought about going with the Foundation block for my 5950, but opted for the TechN instead. Only because it's supposed to be slightly better per anecdotal input I've read from others.

im going for both looks and function, optimus offers me a white bracket with nickel block finish, which is what i need for my rebuild, as the case is white and i'm doing white/blue theme wise as much as i can (obviously white M-ITX is a non-existent market)

So I upped my game a bit and had B&H upgrade the speakers in the order to the following (8340As):

 

 

Should be here tomorrow.

Not gonna lie, I almost replied with Pole Position, seriously.

I always loved most of the NFS series. I still play 'NFS: Most Wanted', especially since I got that Bugatti Veyron SS as my first car when loading the game. A an hour of rampaging about in that, and stress = relieved. 

 

Oddly enough, I prefer the Logitech stick over the wheel/pedal combo for quicker action...could just be 'a being used to' thing though.
