ya wait a month for the sandy bridge fix.  It uses a different type of processor socket so it maybe more future proof as well as faster.

newegg still hasn't shipped out my computer.  said it would take 1-2 days.  It has been 4.  >:( >:( >:(

Ok so I kind of have it running, except it doesn't seem to be able to find my hard drives.  It can find the SSD and disk drive but not the hard drives.  Now when it POSTs it does say show that they are there.

Also I accidently tried to raid 0 with the ssd and disk drive.  Windows didn't like that at all lol.
