Well shhht. Goin to have to do some adding. I just spent another $140 today on two new GPU's. They are top secret and goin to the mod shop! I will be back soon with some estimates.

$450 - Classified
$300 - DFI UT
$325 - 920
$485 - GTX 295
$140 - Top Secret
$155 - HyperX
$265 - Ascents
$209 - Monitor
$100 - 4 Lime Green Fans

$2240 so far, I know there is more.

$400 - Blades (sent back for refund)
$265 - 1st set of Ascents (sent back for refund)
$??? - 2 DFI UT's (sent back for refund)

There is more I just have to remember. This isn't including all the money spent and sent back on RMA's. Thanks alot chuchnit as now it is all wrote down in one place and looks worse. I seriously have a problem.

This isn't counting how much I spent on shipping for the 100 RMA's I have done this year!!! I said it the other day after I bought the GTX 295 that I was taking a break from buying hardware for at least two months. Well I am saying it today after the GPU's I bought to day. I swear!

Cooling hardware counts too

I will ask please for the sake of our insanity though to keep your number to yourself. It might scare people away. Hell even your SSD+Raid card might J/K Buckeye. Just pokin' and having fun.
