Unpacking the rig from Intel

So Intel sent me their Core i7 rig to play with, and I decided to share with you guys my unpacking experience!

The specs for the rig:

  • Intel Core i7 Extreme 3.2GHz (4 cores, 8 threads)
  • Windows Vista Ultimate
  • 3 GB RAM
  • ATI Radeon HD 4800 with 512MB
  • 80GB Hard drive Solid State Drive!!!
  • Samsung 22″ display
  • Microsoft Wireless desktop

UPDATE: Just found out that it’s not using a 80GB HDD but an 80GB Intel SSD!!!
