That is an amazing story. I would go to resellerratings.com and share it to everybody there too. You owe that much to monarch at least.

Actually Monarch was the one who was being idiotic, AMD was the one that upgraded his CPU.

I looked at your Newegg wishlist. Very nice, but for that sound card don't you want 5.1 speakers? You can just use on board sound with those.
Also, I've used that Saitek gamepad for over a year. By far the best gamepad I've ever tried.

Thanks for looking at my wish list. :) Actually I'm more of a headphones person... the reason I want the Audigy2 ZS is not primarily for its excellent sound quality, but for the fact that it has excellent hardware MIDI support (including native SoundFont), and of course because of EAX 4. I may get 5.1 speakers later, but since I'm still a high school student living at home, it's generally better for me to use headphones. :)

Awesome! I'll definitely get that now. I had a sorta bad experience with a Saitek joystick ages and ages ago, but it seems that they're very popular right now, so I decided I'll take a risk. Good to know that they live up to expectations!

You'll be happy.:) I'm glad to see Newegg is carrying them now.

I have sever Saiteks. To bad the right joysticks are fvcking useless in a lot of games because its detected wrong.left righy make you look up and down and up and down make you step left to right. ARGH. Good thing devs are pulling thier head's out of thier asses in newer games and letting you map whatever joystick axises you want.
