December of Preparation - Bring the Noise
 
Better bring your A game to MOA boiyze :thumbsup: or you will get steam rolled :cool3:

Gotz to tell you this will be a busy month full of non-benching fun, but MOA prep will be ongoing.

That said, no month can go by benchless. I got an 8800 GT incoming to bring me closer to catching you. ;)

...and I'm sending back the dead PSU today.....hope to finally score some WR boints this month with tri-SL......or even quad-SLI if I can ever get my hands on an expander.....

I beg to differ. Modding and freezing stuff changes the game. Stuff dies. Stuff doesn't work. You spend a lot of time and money to get nowhere sometimes. The rewards are great when things click, but the risk is higher.

Since the MOA pre-qualifier started and I got a gaggle of 580's I've gone through $700 in LN2 costs alone. Spent a lot of money on hardware, gotten very little sleep, killed more stuff than I have in the last year combined.

Sometimes you spend months chasing the pie in the sky and never get it. But it's oh so sweet when you do.

That's why I just picked up an 8800 GT. Thinking aobut just putting the 980 on phase and benching the card unmodded on air for some relaxing low-key hardware bointage.

.......who am I kidding. That card will end up modded,frozen, and dead before I get any boints at all.....just like my last 8800 GT. :blush:
