    If you want to bring the whole rig, don't let me stop you. But if not, the 9800 Pro + Ryder's 2gb DDR would make it a fine rig for the games we'll be playing.

    I remembered I've got a GeForce FX 5200 lying around that I could bring, but it hasn't been tested. Do you think it could run TF2, at 1024x768 at least? I don't get the impression it's a super-taxing game, but then again my usual graphics card is much better.

    Well I didn't claim any pc as people posted that they're bringing one but I did post early on in this thread that I won't be bringing my pc. I will be bringing my games though so if I have a pc that can handle any of them i'll play. Really though if I can have one to play an ocassional game of TF2 I'll be good to go.

    OK... PC #2 and #3 will be open to whoever wants to use them... Blackhawk you have one, Garg and Joe can fight for #3. Really, unless you guys are on the same team, you can share one of the 2 free pc's.

    I don't need one, but I'm offering to bring a spare if there's need. I may even have two spare, but won't know until next week.

    Does anyone have a spare LGA 775 heatsink (even if its the retail ones) that I can borrow? And some thermal grease?

    If nobody at ICHQ does, I've got a stocker and some AS5 for you, Eggy.

    Any monitors still available? I'm having second thoughts about shipping my 24" LCD up there again, not sure if the box can take another round trip.

    I will need a monitor for my 3rd PC.... sorry, forgot to mention that.

    Well it looks like there will be an extra gaming pc/monitor available since NiGHTS is not able to make the LAN anymore, unless Ryder has already given dibs to someone else... which is entirely possible :P

    I may not need a whole computer. I'm gonna see if I can buy a Shuttle barebone, have them ship it to Detroit and take my computer parts with me on the plane. I will need a monitor.

    Blackhawk,

    IF Nights is not coming, then that PC is yours, if you choose not to buy/bring whatever. Even if you do, that PC is already assembled, whatever.

    You can Shorty can share, if your not in the same tournaments, too :)

    I'll just bring my two spare monitors, and if anyone needs them, let me know. They'll be in my trunk. They should proly be a last resort.

    I'll tentatively call dibs on a 17" CRT, but if anyone shows up with a nicer monitor to spare that'd be awesome. You guys are great :D.

    I'll put some in my new pocket.

    Doesn't Ryder normally bring like 5 lb of OCZ grease? I still have some from last time; I keep it in my doc kit next to the toothpaste. I've used it more than once; you never know when you might need to reseat someone's CPU.

    I'm thinking about just bringing my laptop and not worrying about spare PCs. Is there really any demand for another rig, or does everybody have one now?

    Good because I could not even start the third PC... I have one spare that is ready for action... Anyone that needs one can share. It's rather nice....

    AMD 3000+
    1.0 GB PC3200
    ATI 9800 Pro (256-bit)
    300 GB HD
    Fresh Install of Vista.....
