I second this . Go in and show them how sick you are or netter yet get a doctors note too . <| sep |> I ' ll definitely have to take a look at that mobo , thank you . If possible , I ' d always prefer to get shielded ram vs unshielded ram , the shield should help with long term life of the ram , for a difference of ~$ 10 its really not that big of a dealI don ' t really need a modular PSU , I got a corsair HX 750 i for my personal computer , and I really liked it , so I thought I ' d go for one from the same manufacturer . my knowledge of low power systems is kinda lacking , I had no idea the CX series had reliability issues . thanks ! I ' ll definitely take what you said into consideration as I keep looking around . thanks so much
