Might want to hurry on the Noel, that's a seasonal beer (if it wasn't clear from the name already)

You don't happen to have any ddr4 ram laying about do you? Probably February I'll be building a new system. Still working out the details atm.
Edit: Belay that order, hadn;t even looked at RAM yet, but ddr4 is worthless atm. Some decently high speed RAm then 2k-ish? And hopefully something I don't have to overclock, I hate dicking around with RAM voltages. Call me lazy.

Hey TESTbros, just a little update here. Things in Oregon were far more complicated than first assessment indicated and so I was prolonged, and things here got pretty epic and pretty crazy after CES so let's just say I am going to be slammed for the next couple weeks-to-couple months. Most everything I had was sold, but also ended up with a lot of new cool parts and products. Some never before seen. Will try and get some organization into this thread but in all honesty I do not see that happening for a while. Everyone that got something from me ended up getting it correct? No shipping/tracking issues I assume since I have not heard anything via PM?
Anyway, over the next few months I will be moving my entire company and family so its going to get crazy but if you guys need the hook-up, are in the US, and are in no hurry shoot me a PM and let me know what you need, what your budget is, etc. I am here to help just super slammed with everything right now. I apologize for the calamity that is this thread.
Oh, I will be parting out these Workstations, and my 10+ Gaming Rig's here at the HQ so if you are looking at building a new PC perhaps I can help. We do not use or carry anything AMD though, just FYI. Not after we have seen upwards of 20% failure-rates in their vendor's MoBo's and GPU's.
I know a lot of you guys think AMD is the best budget option out there [Not your fault, their Apple-level Marketing Team trolls hard], but after building hundreds of System's this last generation I can assure you that really, it is not. Anyway, we do not have or do any business (Officially) with AMD products any longer because of stuff like this. And of course the worst product support both in and out of the channel.
Thanks Bros!

Hope things get settled for you. You are definitely going to be my go to as I rebuild my rig over the next year. No hurry since we have some time before release. Moore's law also urges me to take my time.
Also thanks for the data on AMD makes me rethink a few things.

In AMDs defense, never had a AMD card die on me when running 24/7 for months at full tilt or when benching 1.8V with LN2. All the way from the x1900 to my 290Xs. And I have had my hands on dozens of cards.

Never had an AMD processor die on me, Video cards on the other hand, but its usually my fault for OCing the hell out of them, or not having the time to take apart my tower and do a proper cleaning...I loath dust.

I've had 2 faulty AMD cards in a row, finally got a working one. I'm honestly a big fan of AMD, but this new series is terrible.
I was a fan of ATI back in the All in Wonder days, and I never had problems with cards going bad, but it was their Catalyst software that finally pushed me away from ATI/AMD in the last 5 years or so.
I had heard about failure problems in AMD cards, but I never saw the actual numbers though. DAMN!
Thanks for the info.

I'm slowly purchasing parts. I'd have to know what sort of inventory he had so I could base my newegg orders around those!
I have 10,000+ parts in stock, but rather busy ATM, shoot me a PM though with your info and such and instead of going with Newegg, just buy from me and a portion of the profit will be donated to TEST to help support the costs.
Sorry I can not be more organized at this time, but I will try and save all my testbro's a few bucks, and from the hassle of dealing with Newegg, one of the worst companies in the business. Those of us in the industry consider Newegg the "Walmart of Hardware Retailers". Horrible customer service, much higher failure-rates for whatever reason (We have out theories), and who likes mail-in rebates? 1/3 MIR's from newegg do NOT get processed, for whatever reason (Hmm.. I wonder why they would want to save millions annually by losing people's MIR's).

Awesome, Will do man. Not in any rush though, kinda in a holding pattern to see what the video card market is going to look like. Been hearing rumors of a new AMD, shipping manifests, Benchmarks and the like. 960 doesn't interest me, maybe the 390x will? Because, let's be honest, I'm a lazy bastard and I don't want to jack with my system for a couple years, other than tossing in another card to SLI or Xfire.
Anyone in SoCal or PDX want The Last Battlestation?
I can take a GIANT loss on this fucker. Save some of you TESTBROS $1000 or more. Also, it's a solid build. Rock solid. And comes with some serious perks that I can not discuss in public. Anyway, just curious as I have a few guys ready to take it but MUCH rather find a TESTBRO that wants it you know. #TEST4LYFE
Will consider parting out but ideally I would like to just sell EVERYTHING you see pictured. Plus, I also have every single Saitek product you can imagine, BRAND NEW IN THE BOX that I can add.
I dunno, just throwing shit out there.

It's sounding more and more like my new rig will have a healthy portion of MSI parts o.O
