  1. Alright, so I have noticed this happening when I leave it on to download games in steam. Every time I come back to see if it finished them it is unresponsive. All outputs are unavailable and I have to power down the system. Why is this? It is a new build so could it be a part? Thanks for the help!
  2. Yeah I know, I need to get a better one. Couldn't get it into the budget though

  4. This build is fantastic! Love the coolant colors. Build of the week for sure.
  5. It uses the power lines in the walls to deliver internet. It's like running an ethernet cable but easier. If you have problems with your wireless give it a go.
  6. This is as good as I can get it.

  7. Looks pretty sweet. I personally would move the switches to the right side next to the radiator to get a cleaner front but that's just me. Can't wait for more!
  8. Yeah I plan to test outside of the case and I'll get some better fans when I upgrade the case in a few months to something like an arc midi r2 Thanks man!
  9. Okay cool. I'll just route the extension in before anything else. I'll probably upgrade the case at xmas time to something with more airflow and get a better cooler. Thanks for the help!
  10. Specs: (already purchased-will not change parts) I got the case fan just so I could try and get some more airflow. I have a couple other 120mm fans I could use aswell.
  11. Thanks. Any tips on getting the 8 pin in there? Maybe put it in before the motherboard?
  12. Hey guys so I'm going to be building the PC in a few days (when the PSU gets here- FedEx is slow) Just wondering if you guys had any tips for a beginner? Advice? Tricks? Comments? Anything is appreciated.

(Generated by PCPartPicker 2013-10-08 22:14 EDT-0400) My actual price was $600 before rebates with some coupons so I think it was a pretty good deal. Thanks for any comments, suggestions, or tips!
  13. Well than it sounds good. I haven't personally had experience with them so I wouldn't know. Have fun with your build though! I just ordered all my parts and i can't stand waiting for them haha.
  14. Most people will tell you to get a PSU from a more reputable company such as: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-120pb0750kr or http://pcpartpicker.com/part/rosewill-power-supply-hive750 But that is ofcourse all up to you if you want to trust that diablotek. Looks like a pretty sweet build no matter what though
  15. Go look into The Crew. It looks pretty freakin' sweet IMO.
