    Everything should come with it, as long as the components don't say OEM, you will be fine.

    What is OEM and will the things I'm looking at say it or should they all come ready to go.

    OEM means that you just receive the factory product, you won't get any cords or manuals. Simply check the things you're looking at to see if they are OEM yourself, it should say it in the product name. They should all come ready to go.

    Ok thanks, to you and everyone with their input. I believe it's settled between the 680 and 750W, I'll either be placing this order tomorrow or Monday for sure.

    As am I, it seems to be a decent build to start with. The roadtrip and meetup are just a bonus eh?

    Update: My parts were suppose to be here Monday afternoon, it is now Tuesday morning and i still have not received my parts. If they're not here today I'm going to be calling Newegg and demanding some sort of compensation for the delay.

    Keep checking this thread for updates, finished pictures when i do receive them :)

    Do the parts you ordered come with any sort of tracking? They would most likely arrive soon unless you chose some sort of express delivery.

    Are you going to build it or a friend?

    I believe she said that N4no will be building it.

    Anyways, newegg is usually pretty good with that kind of stuff, but it isn't necessarily their fault if the shipping is slow, that would be UPS.

    It is their fault IMO, i offered to come pick the parts up and they gave me a story about how it would screw up their inventory, their warehouse is not far from me at all.

    They have until the end of a business day today to have my parts here or I'm going to call as Lilly-rage.

    @Laptupe, n4n0 is building it.

    I guess that's true, that's dumb they wouldn't let you come pick it up though. Did you end up getting your parts?

    Not today, no. I'm calling Newegg tomorrow just so they know how irritated I am.

    Did they issue a tracking code to you? Did they tell you they had shipped it?

    It's odd that Newegg/UPS haven't delivered yet. They are my personal favorite electronics seller, and I haven't had issues. It's always possible that they haven't received all of the products you ordered. Some of them are ordered from manufacturers if they are out.

    Best of luck; you have quite an amazing build in my opinion.

    They told me it shipped but they didn't give me a tracking code because they said it would be issued once the items were shipped, to check my email.

    The original issues i had with them was that the graphics card i wanted they were out of, however, the guy offered to order it and send it priority for free. So much for priority.

    Going to call them in a few hours.

    I just checked my email and noticed i've had a tracking number the entire time (so i believe) which if correct my parts should be here by tomorrow!

    If this is true, i have an issue. n4n0 is out of state and i have no idea how to build a computer. I may need halp!

    Edit: I've gotten a few questions about what keyboard / mouse i'm going to be using.

    [​IMG] - Razer Ouroboros - $129.99 - bought it for $89.99 because of school + nurse discount.

    [​IMG] - Razer BlackWidow Ultimate - $139.99 - bought it for $109.99 because school + nurse discount.

    I bought pink LED replacements to mod both mouse and keyboard which were about $24.99 each.

    I can help you build it when you get the parts via PM or MSN or something along those lines.
    It is actually quite easy, there are a ton of guides online on how to build them also.

    If you still need my help, we could always video chat or something and I can walk you through it.
