To those that might miss me, I am just putting this up here to say that my desktop computer will be going offline for a certain amount of time, not sure how long, because I ordered a couple computer parts that came in today.
A new mobo, since I would need one in order to make use of a new processor or SATA3 (current mobo only has sata2 support and USB2.0 as well), and I got a SSHD, hybrid drive. Obviously the mobo installation will likely complicate things much more than a new HDD, but I cant say how long my computer will be out of commission for gaming, so... Yeah.
Last time I replaced my mobo, it required a full new install of windows. Not sure if thats the same anymore, but... we will find out tonight!
I will still be on IM's and whatnot, but no games are likely tonight... I hope its a quick, painless upgrade though!
