Sorry, but I needed multiple opinions faster cause I'm doing this soon, and it seems like GH forum is usually dead at this time. Anyway,
I just got my retail edge stuff for xmas yesterday. Been waiting patiently since November . Anyway, I taking it into a shop in my town so I can have it all professionally installed. But I'm only having them swap the MB and CPU out of my case and adding in the new stuff. I also got a new seagate barracuda that I might want to them to install in place of my noisy WD HD. Having past experience installing HD's (many many years of it) do you think I should just install it myself or do you think I should ask them to do it? They didnt have that setup for the work order but I assume if I ask them it will only cost like 5-10 dollars more, plus they might setup my OS for me. I just hate formatting and stuff all over again, it makes me nervous that I might get the wrong drivers and such.
Oh, and I also already backed up my stuff that was important. Such as my vid card seems to only like nvidia 27.42 for some reason for warcraft III.
Sorry once again for posting in 2 forums, I had a valid reason. 🙁
