| Anyone else going to ME for their reopening of the Boxing Day sale
ME had to shutdown their boxing day sale early because they had overwhelming orders on their boxing sale..
this weekend, they will reopen their boxing day sale...
I plan on getting the i5 Combo... if i can get a set.. its an awesome deal i5, Mobo and 8gb of ram for $309.99... cant say the Mobo and ram is the best.. but the i5 2500k is nice...

I read on RFD that NCIX had the same combo, but $10 cheaper... a lot of people who bought on ME ended up cancelling and buying on NCIX instead... but I think it's all gone already.

but what is $10 when your already saving $150 at ME... the line up was less, so you dont have to bump and force your way just to get stuff..
I love the i5... now i can play BF3 properly.... SMOOOOTH like butta..  im dont with my story
