    I was in the process of installing msi after burner on the computer I just built my mom, she of course had to hover over my shoulder the whole time. She noticed it said graphics card and started telling me she didnt want to download one and that she had already paid enough. Thanks for making my day mom... B)

    I would go with the x99 just because I just upgraded to x99 also and im not disappointed, thats if the money is not an object... However! I had a 4790k previously and I don't really see much difference in performance other than rendering videos.

    I would image looking at AMD's APU's would be your best bet.

    static electricity + electronics = bad.
     
    Though I personally have never used an anti-static wrist strap or grounded myself on a plugged in power supply before/when working on a PC, and have never broken anything by doing that. (I work on them in my room, which has a carpet floor, and I wear socks while doing it too )

    I would say look locally, you wont likely get anything shipped within a week. Best of luck!!

    I built my first one on carpet in socks without any protection, maybe I just got lucky but I have never esd'd a part. I just make it habit to touch my case every so often.

    I use cheap logitech stuff, cleaning the keboard is easy. All you have to do is bang it on one side until the shit comes out.

    jslane21 got a reaction from LapX in Is it hard to find a job when you get out of university ?   
    I thought ahead, I'm currently in high-school and I enrolled in a technical trade (HVAC/R) where I am guaranteed to get a job making 20-30 an hour starting off. I do plan to further my education into a field such as computer engineering. Photo and Video production has also been a growing interest for me. As for a job the first place to start is the web, you have the world at your fingertips though you may need to move a bit to get the job you want. Good luck!!

    Yes you should feel bad. While trolling and everything can be hilarious, there are some boundaries you should NEVER cross, and that was one of them. Never do that again.

    jslane21 reacted to thechez99 in My build help?   
    I personally would go for an i7-4790k (or 4770k) over the Xeon but that would just be my personal preference, and I know that they are definitely very capable when it comes to intensive gaming and streaming at the same time. I also have that RAM and it's even better in real life than in the pictures. I love it :-D
     
    You could also get the i7 4790k and a 280x? I don't know if that would suit you, but it would be a very capable computer for the job in hand I think

    Yes it depends on when it was made but you never know what you'll get if you order it online, they may ship you a very new board or a very old one.
