Well, I just got back from visiting MicroCenter to return the dead WD hard drive, only to find that the email I received from them was incorrect…this weekend is tax-free weekend in Georgia! I returned that dead HD and the CM PSU that I bought and replaced them both. I got another, identical drive and also traded up (?) for a BFG 650W PSU. Now, the BFG is not a powerhouse and is considered very ordinary. However, I’m not expecting much – only more than I currently have. It should fit that bill fine. Plus, it has a lifetime warranty. I only had to spend an extra $26 to get that PSU. Not great considering it can be found for much less with rebates, but I don’t really want to wait on a rebate.
Tomorrow I will be ordering my board and memory, so it should make it in by Thursday of next week – just in time for the weekend. Hopefully, I’ll get a chance to put it all together.
