So there's that.


Tower will be in a G5 which will be a journey, so I've heard. probably will pick up a Mobo tray from that website a few from tonymacx86 suggested. It looks pretty clean so we shal see how my cutting skills are...


My concern is the Crucial Ballistix memory with the Gigabyte Mobo, and Mavericks. I PLAN... on doing some FCPX editing, but I have yet to even see the program, so I may stick with FCP Studio2, and hack around Mavericks to be able to use it- is 1866 going to be a pain to setup?


I also wanted some opinions on the ASUS 660 GPU. I'm snaggin it for pretty cheeeep tomorrow, but it is between the ASUS 660 and PNY 660.


I will eventually partial both Win7 and Mavericks.


And finallyyyyy, I wuv u all.
