    Just ordered my 3rd 3XS

    Well I thought I'd get my Xmas pressie order in early, so I'm all installed up ready for my holidays

    As my previous Scan machines have been so good (my wife's is a total gem, wasn't expensive, but still now running like a dream - turns on from the standby option in about 0.5 of a second back into vista, which is so handy).. i've decided to order again

    Invoice *Edit*, 3XS P55 OC - Custom Series

    I've been itching to get a system with a SSD system drive - and decided it was time to take the plunge. I hope you get the wireless pci card working with the windows 7 64 bit (there wasn't an option to select 32 or 64.. so i sent a message this morning). I've got a dlink 655 wireless router - the dlink stuff is pants for drivers.. but its working at the moment with several pcs..

    Looking forward to getting my hands on it - I've been amazing at even the packaging on previous orders (oh and the best purchase of the year from scan upto now? the scan aircon unit.. made our summer )

    Re: Just ordered my 3rd 3XS

    is there any more exciting or nerve-wracking wait than the wait between hitting 'confirm order' and getting a build number so you can track the pc being built? I've never had kids, but i'm sure it's the same as an expectant father.. except I'm hoping my new pc won't keep me up nights

    I've just opted for the early Christmas present too! Similar build, P55 OC with an i7 860, like you say, all very exciting! Thanks to Philip P and Carl for sorting the details out.

    Re: Just ordered my 3rd 3XS

    it seems everyone's getting one - either that or there's a run on high end graphics cards - when I checked yesterday, no 285's or 295's to be seen, and don't even ask about the ati 5870's

    well PC turned up today - just before lunch.

    And I'm posting this from it - so turned on ok. Love the blue fan look - goes with the glow from my G15 keyboard and razer mouse

    Thanks guys
