Great guide! Will definitely come useful when I decide to get my lazy bum off the couch to do a repaste XD..

Yep, you can definitely turn off the front speaker grills by just selecting the Black color in the Command Center.

Yea I keep forgetting duty = tax I paid. But wasn't sure about the brokerage since usually the delivery company charges that when they have to cross the border and it wasn't stated when checking out and paying on the site.But my system just arrived today and everything was okay :)Thanks for the replies guys, much appreciated.

So I recently ordered a M17x R3 from the Canadian Dell site and after waiting for the "In Production" status for the last 4 weeks it's finally shipped! But after checking the tracking number it was shipped via Purolator and from the states. I was wondering since it will be going through the borders to get to where I am (in Toronto), going through customs and all, are they going to charge me for customs and brokerage fees? I mean ordering from the Canadian site, one would think that it would be shipped within the borders and would not have to deal with customs and such? Or was I wrong to think that way?

Damn sounds awesome, im eagerly waiting for mine.. How is the killer network card? I'm getting that as well but couldn't really find any decent reviews anywhere.

Lucky, I'm still waiting on mine for a month now and expected Yo be delivered in the next 2-3 weeks

Yea I figured that when I received my 2nd gtx 580 from evga via the step up program and the difference of having 1 and 2 cards were none whatsoever. Though I was so hyped about it. But oh well the game ran fine even though even in sli in game the 2nd card never did any work so I really doubt ffxiv supported sli or CF :/

Haha that's pretty awesome. I knew I wasn't happy when I got 5.6k bench even with gtx580 sli and i7-950 @ 4.2ghz though I haven't tried OCing the gtx580s yet XD..

Really? I really thought 8k+ was doable lol.. (I didn't look it up).. And here I was thinking when I benched it on my rig when the game came out and getting 5.6k was a sad time for lol... Sadly still waiting for my M17x

Awww lucky lol.. Was supposed to get mine yesterday but they delayed it for another 3 weeks T_T

Finally the status changed to "Shipped" via Purolator...

I was tempted to do it but I'll stick with the regular monitor, I could care less about a game being in 3D or not.
