If it makes you feel any better my checking accounts now hates me too. I have so much checking account aggro I need to wait to get the 4K monitor to get it to stop hitting me. 🙂

And yes, before anybody tells me, I realize this is overkill for just gaming. I also use my systems for running my AIs and the faster memory and disk speed helps with that.
