Added lights!

Nearly a year of reviews and LTT I have created the formula for my first mid-grade pc. It's no modded, custom liquid-cooled thing of beauty that I've seen so much of on here, but it's already so much for my expectations and needs. I've already ordered that dang mouse.....more is on the way.....   PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks   CPU:  Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($229.97 @ SuperBiiz)  CPU Cooler:  NZXT Kraken X60 98.3 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler  ($116.06 @ NCIX US)  Motherboard:  MSI Z87-GD65 Gaming ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  ($178.56 @ NCIX US)  Memory:  G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory  ($89.98 @ OutletPC)  Storage:  Corsair Force Series GS 128GB 2.5" Solid State Disk  ($114.99 @ Amazon)  Storage:  Seagate Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive  ($87.99 @ Newegg)  Video Card:  MSI GeForce GTX 780 3GB Video Card  ($499.99 @ NCIX US)  Case:  NZXT H440 ATX Mid Tower Case  ($119.99 @ NCIX US)  Power Supply:  Corsair RM 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply  ($109.98 @ Best Buy)  Monitor:  Acer H236HL bid 60Hz 23.0" Monitor  ($159.99 @ Amazon)  Keyboard:  Corsair Vengeance K70 Wired Gaming Keyboard  ($129.99 @ NCIX US)  Mouse:  ROCCAT Kone Pure Color Wired Laser Mouse  ($66.98 @ Newegg)  Other: SUPERNIGHT 5M Waterproof 5050 SMD 300 Epoxy LED Strip Light White ($16.00) Other: Bitfenix Alchemy Multisleeve 6-Pin PCI-E Extension Cable - 45cm - Red  ($8.99) Other: Bitfenix Alchemy Multisleeve 8-Pin PCI-E Extension Cable - 45cm - Black ($8.99) Other: Bitfenix Alchemy Multisleeve 24-Pin ATX Extension Cable - 30cm - Red  ($11.99) Total: $1950.44 (Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

LEDs installed. Hooked them up to 12 volt and attached a switch.
 

 

 

 
I just love how much detail it brings out of the circuit boards! Expectedly, the light is a bit blue-tinged. I'd like to think it leaves a cold, stark feel to it.
 

 
My Nexus 5 is discoloring it all a bit anyhow, as you notice the cooler light is actually red and not orange.

I will look into this more. Thank you and @Karumu for your input. I also, don't have the case yet so measuring isn't an option right now.

The closer you get to high school, the more they only care about how well you do in college. They just want you to pass tests by then. Teacher/student ratio is absolutely ridiculous if you ask me. But that can be said in more places than North America. My personal experience from school was a poor elementary school that took me out of math studies everyday to work on my speech skills. Then when I graduated speech class I was so behind in math I was in Learning Disabled math until high graduation! ....Not to mention my dad didnt care that my mother did my homework for me half the time. So, it's pretty variable.

Last arrival before the case tomorrow. And then it begins...

For $99 and a new contract it's absolutely wonderful. Of course I came from a Motorola Photon with a shattered screen so that's pretty easy. The UI is user friendly. Thouf I turned alot of options off. because no I actually don't want to link every damn thing to my gmail. I love it and it matches my new build!

so what would people use outside of a PC?
 
tablets and smart phones only? one can only shit for so long. 
 
(I can't see the video, but I still consider a Laptop and Chromebook to be a 'PC')

You realize how little iit matter right? Truthfully I wouldnt use either term but if their ignorant and dont want to learn there are plenty of other things I could call them.

The only ones I can think of for the LEDs are Bitfenix's Spectre Pro. Though, I don't they think they are good nor silent.

tenchu 90's lol

Absolutely loved the original Spyro series... I played riptos rage so many times..

There is only Super Mario 3.

am i the only one who never really got into pokemon at all?

Same here! Never liked it.

What resolution? And any budget? 
 
Also, as long as it hasn't got something like a 30ms response time, you won't notice it. I'd say anything up to 10ms is okay for gaming.
