Finally another update!!
Okay to start off, that dude Shaq at my dad's work doesn't look like he's gonna be getting any money so he's not gettin his crap. So there goes all that money
The bright side of all of this is I have just bought this video card that's similar but different to the 9800 I had up there. Pretty much the same clock speeds but 1gb of RAM and its a bit smaller and uses less power. Less power = less heat = 8-)

That card is the EVGA GeForce 250GTS Superclocked 1GB
Now for more bad news...building this computer was supposed to be my senior project. Problem is though, because I'm not getting that $250 from that mofo Shaq, I'm not going to have enough money in time. So it looks like I'm a bit screwed.
As for the remaining parts:
Case
Hard Drive
RAM
Power Supply
The funny thing about all of this is it adds to around $250...prolly a bit more w/ tax and/or shipping
Oh one more bit of good news. The GPU said it had free 3 day shipping right, but when I went to confirm the order and whatnot, it said free shipping estimated 1 day delivery w00t. That means I might have it by Thursday! Too bad it's still not a functioning computer
