Sadly, I can't post any pictures. My initial thought of the Z506 5.1 channel speaker set from Logitech was that they were probably going to end up being a few cheap speakers thrown inside a box. Well for around $100 on newegg it's probably turned out to be the best for the money. It includes a 75W sub woofer, 2 side speakers and 1 middle speaker. The sub woofer has a bass knob so you can lower or heighten the amount of bass you want. Sadly, a slight rattle noise is produced when you crank it up all the way. Going from free wooden 2.1 channel Rosewill speakers to this was phenomonal. If you have a spare $100 and you need a good speaker set with Logitech quality then these should be the ones for you.

Yeah, but tell that to the masses, they've been brainwashed to think any cans with the letter 'b' printed on it is godly. :blink:  It's a classic case of form over function, as long as it looks cool, that's all that matters to them. I sometimes take a train to town, and my goodness, the number of Beats headset, from circumaural to in-ear, is saddening. Teens who know no better are looking so cool with their Beats cans......like I'd said, I'm using a simple Senn CX200 + Samsung S III combo, and my headset would sound so much better than all these Beats cans. I'm thinking of getting a Klipsch S4 since I saw a few sets going at a relatively low price, even w/o trying them, I would say with some confidence that it would easily sound better than a more expensive Beats cans.

PLEASE LOOK AT THIS COMMENT. The Logitech Z506 full speaker set are only 100usd. Which I don't know how much is in Denmark. But in The US they are great for the price. They come with 3 front facing speakers, a sub woofer, and 2 back left and right speakers. I use it for Dayz, blaring electronic and pretty much everything. They are by far the greatest speaker set I have owned. The sub woofer is small but offers great bass for the size and won't get in the way. I will link you my review of it in a PM.

Trying not to say things that are already said (like not putting the side panel on when you're done, its not a myth its common sense)

1# Installl order (some things may be switched around)
Power supply, then motherboard, then cpu, then cpu cooler, then ram, , then hard drive, then graphics card.
2# Take your time.
3# If you plan to overclock or use a high power cpu get a good quality board with heatsinked 8+2 power phases (heatsinks alone don't mean an 8+2vrm).
4# Dont forget the cpu cooler fan header (every other time in the early days)
5 part a Dont cheap out on a case, (under £50 GBP-exceptions below*), stick to well known brands, if you're unsure, ask.
5 part b; You dont always have to buy a more expensive case from corsair, antec etc (though it is a safer bet), if you're carefull and read reviews you can find unknown bargains (7870Tahiti LE, sharkoon t9*, nzxt source 210*).
5 part c; Easy way to spot a good case. (A good case will be made of thicker quality material and wont just strip threads)
1# Does it have a bottom mounted power supply?-not always the case but if its top mounted AND cheap-rubbish.
2# Does it have a black interior?-if they're willing to do this its a good start.- still a poor case
3# Does it have cable routing holes and a cpu cutout?- if they're willing to do this thats good too.- low case
4# Is there enough room behind the motherboard tray to actually route any cables?-you want an inch or more.- a good case
5# Are those cable routing holes use rubber grommets?-makes a build look tidy, most often on £100+ cases.
6# Better designed-attention to detail, you're unlikely to spot things untill you're building in it or unless Tiny Tom Logan talks about it in a review.
if it has all of the above then you have a good case.
 
6# Bright LED fans unless they're expensive are probably cheap and while sometimes it doesn't always matter... do not go thinking they're going to be amazing just because they look good.
7# Just because loads of people are fanatic about something doesn't mean its good, PERSONALLY I think noctuas are overhyped (still good) and gentle typhoons are all a placebo, GET evidence from MULTIPLE reviews even if it means doing it yourself. It's your cash/pc on the line.
8# Watch linus's future proofing guide, infact watch everything linus has made or done a guide on, seriously.....
9# Never assume anything, Don't assume that because its doa its a terrible product (not always) sometimes things just don't work, Shop around ALLOT and factor in postage and read reviews!
10# If you can get USB3 do it! it will become a standard, other things to a lesser extent are likely to become standard aswell so it can be beneficial to spend and extra 3$ on a motherboard/graphics card to get it, again if you're unsure ask!
Don't buy from apple (do i need to say this? the only people that wont like this will have an apple product of some sort and will have paid double the price because its white and partially made of die cast...)
11# Don't always assume newer is better (pentium 4.....bulldozer)
12# Low end AIO coolers aren't much better than a decent heatsink that are cheaper.

13# DON'T SPREAD THERMAL PASTE, its meant to be the thinnest micron sized film, thermal paste isn't as good at conducting as heatsink-to-metal contact so only use a blot in the center of the cpu and make sure the heatsink is making good pressure and give it a tiny wiggle without it pulling away from the cpu if you can. (this is something I'm very ocd about) doing it properly isn't hard, doing it really well is an art.
14# DON'T NOT USE THERMAL PASTE, Just because I said less is more doesn't mean none.
15# Learn to cable manage, sit back and think ALLOT before doing something, where its going to go, how, what will the effects be?
16# Plan your build as much as you can before buying parts.
17# Bronze efficiency power supply is minimal silver is allot better, gold is a little better and the improvements (in efficiency) shrink from there on but bronze if you're on a budget gold and upwards if your not.
18# Part 1-"I dont care how loud it is", You will eventually so why not make it as quiet as you affordably can now.
Part 2a- having quiet fans is 1 good but having less fans is quieter.
Part 2b-if you have fans blowing through an area that doesnt need anything cooled (empty hard drive cage) unplug it for now..unless its LED
Air moving in and out the case is important but the airspeed is going to be generally slow, So don't go filling it with fans at the front and exhausts at the back/top just because you can.
19# Clean your pc-just do it-especially if you have lots of fans drawing in air
20# Clean your pc-especially if you dont have any fans moving air.
21# Positive air pressure vs negative air pressure-if your drawing unfiltered air in, it will bring dust in, simple.
22# The faster your fans are, the more restricted they will by by filters and grills-slow and steady.
23# cases with top mounting for fans-spill a cup of tea on it and you'll regret it, even if you dont dust will end up going inside the case through the grills and land on your graphics card.

24# Don't build your pc on an anti static bag, it's electrically conductive.
25# Double check your stand off mounts, in the wrong place they can short your board out.
26# Notice things like ddr3 1600 is the same price as ddr1333 and the cost per gigabyte goes down as you get bigger hard drives (generally)

Can't think of anything else I've learnt... :D
Oh and read advice given to you, How much of this did you skip?

What I think that Corsair is good at is listening to the enthusiasts.
 
If they were to make or relabel motherboards, the first round of boards will probably fall short in different ways, but you can bet your ass that they will fix those issues.
 
My expectation is that they will make sure the motherboard will look nice, have nice placement on all of the connectors, and have the best expansion slot layout.  
 
Key examples? USB 3.0 Right Angle Header.  All-Black motherboard PCB, etc.  
 
Also, I bet Corsair would even bother to put the Front Audio header with the rest of the front panel headers, and not like every other motherboard manufacturer who just put it randomly somewhere in the middle.
 
And you can bet your ass Corsair will make it so that their CLC solutions will fit on even smaller cases, where some motherboards VRM heatsinks are too tall on the top of the motherboard.
 
 
This is what Corsair excels at.  They are quick to understand what the consumer wants when the consumer asks for something that is obvious.
 
Another thing that I think Corsair would be great at would be the UEFI.
 
Where I think Corsair will fall short?   Where things aren't so black and white.  The actual performance of the motherboard besides the aesthetics.  They won't have the experience of Gigabyte or Asus to make a board that is able to overclock as well or be as reliable.
They will cost more than their equally performing counterparts, because of they attention they pay to physical design.

Sure why not. 
 
But the important question is...
 
DO YOU KNOW HOW SICK A FULL CORSAIR BUILD WOULD LOOK?
 
LIKE SERIOUSLY.
 
It would be orgasmic.

Agreed I would like his opinion on RAM, mine is that RAM is RAM and yeah.... I haven't had any RAM fail or be faulty with a whole bunch of different manufacturers...

Mushkin makes good memory. Times are really fast on their redline series.

I just go over and help my family out. My friends already know a lot about computers so they usually only come to me if they are completely stumped (rarely happens). My family on the other hand ie: "Max help me add my friend on my gmail so I can email them." <-Derp

Found these tease images over at overclock didn't see it here so I thought I would post it.
