Also how is the 8120?

I'd have bought an FX-8350 instead but my motherboard wasn't compatible with it, so. It's still really good, though. Runs everything I've been working with since I got it (~2-3 months ago) crystal smooth and never seems to "lag" or anything.

Ok good. I had one but the hard drive failed and they are those tiny special ones and I couldn't find any, threw it out and now I miss it :*(

on a mostly off topic thing, I spent I think ~$800 on some new hardware on Newegg for my computer, I used my debit card via Paypal, but I made the wrong order, so I cancelled and I had enough on my account so that I didn't have to wait for the refund so I just switched out the parts and then checked out again.

So $1600 is now gone from my account, but within 1-3 business days apparently $800 gets refunded.  Nope.  Paypal then flags my paypal account AND informs my bank account for fraudulent activity.  So now I'm running between Newegg, Paypal, and my bank trying to get everyone the money they deserve and try not to get sued.

tldr; Paypal doesn't want you to spend more than $30 a month or they're going to make your life hell

Who uses a debit card through paypal? Just get a visa debit or something, that's what I use

I don't like having more than one bank account, with my auto deposit checks it just gets all frustrating having to transfer money and use different ATM's, etc

I'm using an AMD FX-8120 with a stock fan and I've been thinking of replacing the fan.
Any ideas/suggestions? Lately I've been thinking about a Scythe Mugen 4, but I dunno.

Anyone?
