I was going to wait for Skylake next year, but the prices now were too great to pass up on. This is my first build so take it easy on me HAHA

Thanks a lot. I actually wasn't too sure about the case until I saw it in person in the store. Glad I picked it!

Nice simple build. How are you finding the case to build in?

 

After dealing with obscure BIOS issues, a build like this make me remember when things didn't have to be hard. :(

I did have to update the BIOS prior to installing windows. That was the only hiccup. 

 

As for the case, its pretty easy to work in. The shroud is a little tricky when trying to plug in modular cables but its worth it.

Why not a MSI 970? Other then that this build is awesome :D

I actually had both cards in my hand. The EVGA had a slightly higher clock speed (albeit very slight) and I preferred the look of the EVGA.

What is your problem

Specs: 4790k | Asus Z-97 Pro Wifi | MX100 512GB SSD | NZXT H440 Plastidipped Black | Dark Rock 3 CPU Cooler | MSI 290x Lightning | EVGA 850 G2 | 3x Noctua Industrial NF-F12's

Bought a powermac G5, expect a mod log sometime in 2015

Corsair is overrated, and Anime is ruined by the people who watch it
