Thanks! I'm in Texas, so that's great news for me.
I was looking over the thermal pads on FrozenCPU and I noticed there are pads that are rated 17.0 W/mK vs 11 W/mK. I assume they are better, but I don't really have any experience with thermal pads. Anybody have any thoughts?
Also, what CPU fans are you guys going with?
Last question - will I need to round up USB cables?
