    Not installations required, but there are two patches each over 250 megs
    High End Lian Li Case = $180 on Mastercard
    High End Coolermaster Case = $180 on mastercard
    Debating which computer case is better = Priceless


    I'm a Coolermaster Fanboy, are you?

    May 19th. Way to early in my opinion. They are not done yet, by far. And worst of all, they still havent announced the pricing.

    Heh, at the rate I'm getting it at it'll still be over four hours before it's done. That's slow for cable.

    I'd also like to note that the minimum system requirements are 512MB of system RAM. Its for this reason that I'm not touching it.
